19 May 2015 • Written by Malcolm MacLean

The 55 metre motor yacht Obsession, jointly listed for sale by John Cohen at Merle Wood & Associates with CSO Yachts, is sold, with Merle Wood representing the buyer.

Obsession was built by Australian yard Oceanfast with an aluminium hull and GRP superstructure to a design by Phil Curran and delivered in 1991 with a major refit in 2009.

The multi million dollar refit included an engine overhaul back to zero hours and she was fitted with zero speed stabilisers. DNV classed and MCA compliant, she is a popular charter yacht. Her Jon Bannenberg interior, refreshed during her refit, sleeps up to 12 guests in a master suite, VIP suite, two doubles and a twin cabin, all with en suite facilities.

Powered by twin 3,480hp MTU engines and KaMeWa water jets, Obsession is an impressive sight underway and her shallow draft allows her access close to those secluded shores which other yachts cannot reach.

Obsession was asking €5.9 million.
