Expertly crafted by Cantieri Riuniti dell'Adriatico, this 1963 Italcantieri Bora 4 serves as the flagship of the historic series. Measuring 10.4 meters in length with a beam of 2.98 meters, this classic motor yacht features a characteristic hard-chine hull design. It remains a testament to the robust construction standards of its era.
The vessel underwent an extensive refit in 2016, which included a complete hull repaint in yellow, deck refinishing, and a comprehensive overhaul of the electrical system, including new interior, exterior, and underwater lighting. During this period, a new 3.5kW Paguro generator was also installed to enhance onboard autonomy.
Propulsion is provided by twin GM Detroit Diesel engines, each producing 125 HP. In 2022, these engines were professionally brought to zero-hour status by an official Detroit workshop. The mechanical update included engine electrical system replacement and modifications to the exhausts for improved silencing, ensuring a smooth 15-knot cruising speed.
Designed to accommodate up to 12 people, the interior layout offers two cabins and one bathroom, making it suitable for classic yacht enthusiasts who value historical significance paired with recent technical updates. The boat is currently lying in Italy and reflects a commitment to maintaining its original quality and nautical heritage.
This Italcantieri Bora 4 is currently available for 45.000 EUR. Please note that the price has been reduced, offering an opportunity to acquire a piece of Italian maritime history.
