A number of brands have production boats in this size range but they come out of molds that can't be changed and the layouts are pretty much fixed. Not so with a Hargrave Custom Yacht. Each hull built in their Turkish yard is built from scratch in a duty-free zone that allows Hargrave — which has always been known for value — a pricing advantage. The result is a custom yacht at a lower price than what we typically see. See our Hargrave 118 Tri-deck video. CAPT.
