The Sea Star is a distinguished 85-foot motor yacht that embodies luxury, reliability, and exclusivity, making it an exceptional choice for both private recreational use or as a premier small-ship charter vessel. This classic yacht is available for purchase as a private vessel at the listing price, with the added option to separately acquire the active charter business, which specializes in small-ship cruises throughout Alaska. Currently, Sea Star provides unparalleled charter experiences, navigating the awe-inspiring landscapes of Alaska's Kenai Fjords National Park and Prince William Sound—two of South-Central Alaska's most pristine and untouched cruising destinations. Boasting accommodations for up to 12 guests in four beautifully appointed staterooms, along with crew quarters for five professional crew members in three staterooms, Sea Star guarantees an intimate and unforgettable journey on every voyage.  This turnkey opportunity is perfect for those seeking to enter the charter business, offering a fully established operation for small-ship cruises in Alaska. Additionally, the yacht’s fresher water moorage in Seattle is transferable, ensuring a seamless transition for the next owner.

 

**Unmatched Efficiency & Performance** 

 

Beyond its luxurious design and layout, the Sea Star is expertly engineered for exceptional performance and comfort, ensuring a smooth and efficient cruising experience. Powered by two reliable Caterpillar engines, she maintains a comfortable cruising speed of 10 knots while consuming only 12.5 gallons of fuel per hour at 1,200 RPM. This optimal balance of speed and fuel efficiency not only reduces operational costs but also minimizes environmental impact, positioning the Sea Star as one of the most eco-conscious and cost-effective vessels in her class. With an impressive range of over 2,600 nautical miles, she is built for long-distance, sustainable voyages.

 

**Design & Maintenance** 

 

The yacht's systems are thoughtfully designed for ease of use and minimal maintenance, ensuring flawless operation throughout extended long range cruising. With an unwavering focus on detail, the vessel’s owner maintains thorough and up-to-date records for all mechanical systems, offering complete transparency and peace of mind to future owners and guests alike.
