73 Elliott 1983 Boat for Sale

DON JUAN is a truly exceptional sportfishing platform, built on a renowned Buck Smith hull and completed by Elliott Boats in 1983 as the final vessel ever constructed by the yard, making her a rare and notable piece of craftsmanship.

Designed for serious offshore performance, she features an expansive fishing cockpit equipped with three bait tanks, a full-beam refrigerated fish hold, and a comprehensive tackle center, perfectly suited for extended sportfishing adventures.

Entering the salon through a beautifully crafted teak door, you are welcomed into a light-filled space with oversized windows offering exceptional visibility. To port, a large sofa and formal dining table provide seating for up to ten guests, while to starboard, a secondary sofa and table convert into an additional berth when needed.

Forward, a sunken bar area is thoughtfully appointed with an icemaker, and refrigerator, ideal for entertaining. Opposite, the spacious galley features a full-size Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, elegant countertops with barstool seating, and a full complement of high-end appliances designed to satisfy even the most discerning chef.

A handcrafted teak stairwell leads to the expansive pilothouse, where a striking teak helm console houses all engine controls, gauges, and navigation systems. Aft of the helm is a generous settee with teak table, complemented by a large double bunk. Port and starboard side doors provide convenient access to the bow.

Above, the flybridge offers a secondary helm station, multiple sunbeds, tower access, and a substantial boat deck accommodating a 16’ runabout tender—delivering both versatility and commanding views.

The main accommodation are located forward of the galley. The master stateroom to port features a walkaround double berth and private ensuite head with shower. Opposite, a guest stateroom includes a double bunk with an adjacent single berth and its own ensuite head with beautifully finished tilework.

Further forward, an additional guest stateroom to port offers a large double berth and shares a head and shower with the crew stateroom to starboard, which features upper and lower single bunks.

Aft of the accommodations, a spacious utility room houses a custom freezer, laundry equipment, and electrical panels. Access to the meticulously maintained engine room is provided through a watertight door, underscoring the vessel’s robust and thoughtful design.
