Broker's Comments

Price reduced to far below the build cost of this never-been-sold 2008 Pacesetter 540. Less than 150 hours on the engines, and pristine throughout! Compared to other quality motoryachts of the same model year this new, reduced price represents a great opportunity. And consider that this boat has NOT BEEN TITLED OR USED and has been maintained in BOAT SHOW CONDITION.

Bracewell Boatworks created a showcase for its exceptional yacht construction capabilities in this sleek, gorgeous vessel which is fully equipped and ready to cruise.

With an excellent use of space, this boat contains more liveable volume than most 58 - 60 foot vessels. The interior is open with good sightlines fore and aft from the pilothouse. The location of the galley and dinette within the extended pilothouse creates an innovative and practical feature. Dining and entertaining with a view! Tasteful and artistic cherry joinery abounds, accented by carefully-selected granite surfaces. Bracewell's cabinet shop is a marvel of skill and creativity! Three comfortable and luxurious staterooms are accessed by a wide, open and well-lit staircase - unique in a vessel of this size. The engineroom and auxiliary machinery space offer full standing headroom and a layout that spotlights the precision and attention to detail of Bracewell's engineering and mechanical teams.

The Pacesetter 540 cruises comfortably and remarkably quietly up to 20 knots. With a forward pilothouse and unique foredeck configuration, excellent forward visibility is maintained at all speeds. When not in a hurry, the boat tracks very well and performs in an economical trawler-like fashion at a speed of 10 knots.

If you're considering an Ocean Alexander or a Hampton yacht in this size range (or even larger), it will be worth your time to evaluate the Bracewell Pacesetter 540. With exceptional North American craftsmanship, effective use of space, and thrilling performance this boat offers an excellent value.
