Yachting Partners International is delighted to announce the sale of SPIRIT OF ROMO, a unique 25.65-metre explorer yacht.
Built by Svendborg Skibsvaerft, SPIRIT OF ROMO was listed exclusively for sale with YPI for 1.65 million Euros. She was represented by YPI’s sales operation manager, Jason Duggan, with the buyer introduced by Steve Huppert.
“Without doubt, SPIRIT OF ROMO is one of the most challenging but rewarding vessels I have transacted,” Duggan said.
“SPIRIT OF ROMO is a family-owned yacht with history and romance coupled with the sophistication of a modern yacht. As a broker, I’m often required to promote modern superyachts that are highly popular that stimulate a lot of interest from the outside. This particular yacht was not the average undertaking. It appealed to a very specific niche client base that required a forensic marketing campaign to find the right buyer for the vessel. The sales and marketing team worked tirelessly to bring a successful outcome.”
Duggan added: “SPIRIT OF ROMO is a truly unique vessel. Even though she is smaller than traditional expedition vessels, she offers all the equipment you would typically find on a 60-metre + vessel, as well as unlimited range. She is a vessel that has been built for true explorers who put adventure above style.”
