Motor yacht for sale PRELUDE (25M/82’) is one of the finest examples of a custom-built yacht fisherman in her size category. Built in the United States of America by one of the west coast’s best custom yacht builders Knight & Carver, this custom designed Knight-Carver 82 is truly one of a kind.
A great deal of time and thought went into PRELUDE’s build, which is evident in every refined detail. For example, her discerning owner spent weeks selecting the perfect Anagrae wood veneer, imparting a rich, timeless warmth throughout her interiors. The carefully considered interior layout speaks to the owner’s experience, accommodating both leisurely day excursions and ambitious long-distance cruises alike.
Her beautifully refitted interior creates a warm, inviting atmosphere, perfect for guests who relish the pleasures of cruising. Accommodating up to 6 guests and 3 crew members, PRELUDE promises an exceptional experience on every voyage.

Powered by twin Caterpillar diesel engines, she also has the ability to reach top speeds of 22 knots when necessary.
PRELUDE is a yacht that is tailored for sportfishing enthusiasts with a spacious, well-equipped cockpit. She has also proven herself as a true voyager, having completed 10 journeys to Alaska, 2 traversals of the Panama Canal, and many other remarkable voyages all from her home base in California. Maintained with an open checkbook, PRELUDE shines with the care and attention she’s received, offering an exceptional opportunity for her next owner to embark on new adventures in confidence.
