Overview
About this vessel
Few boats come to market with a story as closely tied to their broker as this one. Known to Fielding Marine since her earliest design phase, the 2023 Island Gypsy 650 Motor Yacht is a vessel they understand intimately and are uniquely positioned to represent.
Custom built and launched in 2023, this immaculately presented Island Gypsy 650 Motor Cruiser offers new-boat quality without the wait. Designed for extended cruising and entertaining, she offers the perfect balance of style, stability, and seaworthiness, making her ideally suited to Australian conditions. With a straight walk-through saloon and no steps, she provides effortless movement from the cockpit to the helm, enhancing accessibility and comfort for all on board.
Powered by twin 705hp Cummins QSM11 diesels coupled with ZF gearboxes, she delivers an effortless and economical cruise at 8 knots while consuming just 21 litres per hour, with a top speed of 16 knots when required. The twin Quick X19 gyros are a standout feature, delivering exceptional stability both underway and at rest. Their effectiveness is immediately apparent, significantly reducing roll and keeping the vessel level and composed in a range of conditions. Combined with Lewmar bow and stern thrusters and hydraulic steering, she is easy to handle and responds predictably, making close-quarters manoeuvring and extended cruising both smooth and controlled. Her low-profile design also allows easy passage beneath the Sundale Bridge on the Gold Coast, providing greater flexibility for cruising the Broadwater and surrounding waterways.
The saloon and helm area are designed for relaxed cruising and entertaining, featuring a bright, open layout, large windows, and excellent visibility from the helm station. The helm is fitted with a complete Garmin electronic suite, including triple GPSMAP 8416 displays, radar, autopilot, forward-facing sonar, and a camera system. The fully equipped galley to starboard features Fisher & Paykel refrigeration, a Bosch oven, an induction cooktop, an LG microwave, and an integrated dishwasher, making onboard entertaining both easy and enjoyable.
Below deck, accommodation is provided for six across three generous cabins, including a full-beam master suite, a forward double cabin, and a twin single berth guest cabin. Each cabin is air-conditioned and serviced by two well-appointed bathrooms featuring electric marine toilets and separate showers. Entertainment throughout the vessel is provided by dual Smart TVs and a Fusion stereo system, while twin Onan generators ensure reliable onboard power supported by a comprehensive Victron Energy management system.
Externally, the teak-laid cockpit and hydraulic swim platform provide an inviting space for entertaining and easy tender handling. With her solid GRP construction, proven hull design, and low engine hours, this 2023 Island Gypsy 650 represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a vessel of exceptional calibre that is fully equipped and ready for immediate enjoyment.
