High Tide Yacht for Sale | 47 Buddy Davis Yachts Orange Beach, AL

High Tide Boat | 47' Buddy Davis 1988

The 47 Buddy Davis Convertible is one of the finest sportfishing boats ever conceived and is listed as #30 on Saltwater Sportsman's top 50 boats of all time. Buddy Davis was the first Carolina custom boat builder who crafted a production boat and the 47 became an instant success due to her beautiful lines, top fit and finish, plush interior, seaworthiness, and fishability. High Tide is a fantastic example of a well cared for battlewagon ready to conquer high seas and big game!

High Tide has been nicely updated throughout its last two owners to include Garmin electronics, night vision camera, bridge enclosure, hull and topside paint, starlink, a new Phasor-Kubota generator, fire suppression system, windlass, pedestal in cockpit, anchor, chain and rope, updated microwave, custom carpet, new faucets, and countertops. New cockpit TV, new props, underwater lights and black mask on brow all recently replaced. The Rockford-Fosgate speakers, subwoofer, and amplifiers will please even the most discerning audiophiles and at maximum volume!
