72' Iconic Yacht Silver Fern

The truly exceptional bluewater yachts don't just get talked about, they get proven. And few yachts embody that pedigree quite like Silver Fern.

Built on a robust steel hull and completely rebuilt to exacting standards, Silver Fern is a world-cruising yacht with a remarkable history. Having already completed an extraordinary 12-year circumnavigation across 72 countries, she has since undergone an extensive $1.1M+ refit and upgrade program between 2020–2025, transforming her into a fully equipped, commercially compliant expedition yacht capable of taking on any ocean with confidence.

Now offered for sale, Silver Fern represents a rare opportunity to acquire a true long-range cruising vessel with serious offshore credentials, modern systems, and proven performance.

Designed as a raised salon staysail sloop, Silver Fern offers exceptional visibility from the interior helm station, making long passages safer and more comfortable. Her spacious layout includes three generous cabins, two bathrooms, a fully equipped galley, and a standout walk-in engine room, features rarely found in yachts of this size.

On deck, she is set up for short-handed sailing, with all lines led aft, electric winches, and a practical, safe cockpit layout. Below, the warm timber finishes, ample storage, and intelligent design create a comfortable liveaboard environment suited for extended cruising or expedition charter work.

With over 100,000 nautical miles sailed in the past six years alone, including multiple ocean crossings, Rolex Sydney Hobarts, and extensive Pacific exploration, Silver Fern has proven herself time and time again in demanding offshore conditions.

Strong, capable, and extensively upgraded, Silver Fern is the definition of a serious bluewater yacht, equally suited to private adventure, global cruising, or commercial expedition use.
