Overview
About this vessel
The all aluminum 2 Umbrellas was built in 1988 by the famous Dutch shipyard Jongert. Jongert is well known for building large, classic, capable, world travelling sailboats and powerboats. 2 Umbrellas is no exception. She was built as an explorer vessel before the terms explorer and expedition vessel even existed.
She was originally built for an American businessman who cruised her extensively for over 20 years. She has crossed the Atlantic 5 times on her own bottom. Every system on the boat is designed and built to be capable and reliable.
The current owners have cruised her up and down the east coast, including through a small craft advisory off of Cape Hatteras. They have currently purchased a Dutch river cruiser and are cruising the European inland waterways.
4 Umbrellas is a custom, one-of-a-kind, transatlantic motoryacht. She was built by the famous Dutch builder Jongert in 1988 for a successful American businessman. She crossed the Atlantic 5 times and cruised much of the world. She has had a series of caretakers over the years and is now ready for the next adventures.
The current owners have mainly cruised her up and down the east coast. A recent passage off Cape Hatteras was done during a small craft advisory; she is an easy vessel to feel safe in. The current owners have now bought a river cruiser in Europe and plan to spend the next 3 years on their next adventures.
Everything about the ship is well thought out and constructed. She is currently on the hard after getting a new set of mechanical seals installed on both shafts. These ceramic spring loaded seals are from the original manufacturer Rubber Design and were professionally installed by Rubber Design, good for at least another 10 years of trouble free running. The shafts use a commercial circulating oil cooling and lubrication system.
Recent work includes newly cleaned and recoated black/grey tanks, full bottom job down to the fairing, 4 new exhaust elbows, 4 new 6 inch valves for the main sea chests with gear drives, rebuilt aft deck winch, new hydraulic lines for the crane and much more.
She is a beautiful ship and always attracts admirers and at the same time is one of the most capable and proven 78ft boats around.
