True Love Deserves Her Next Adventure

TRUE LOVE is far more than a yacht—she is a custom-built expedition vessel designed for serious cruising, meticulous ownership, and unforgettable adventures. Now offered for sale for only the third time since her launch, she presents an exceptional opportunity to own a truly one-of-a-kind motor yacht.

Built by Park Isle Marine in British Columbia from welded aluminum alloy and designed by renowned naval architect Gregory Marshall, True Love was commissioned by experienced yachtsmen who wanted something no production builder could offer. The result is a striking, semi-displacement explorer yacht with timeless lines, exceptional craftsmanship, and capabilities that rival many of today's premier cruising brands.

Imported to the United States in 2024, True Love has since benefited from extensive upgrades, thoughtful improvements, and an uncompromising maintenance program. Every system has been cared for with the philosophy that reliability at sea is never optional. Complete maintenance and service records—including every expenditure—are available, reflecting an extraordinary level of stewardship rarely found in any yacht.

Finished in elegant Awlgrip Moondust with a white superstructure, True Love cruises comfortably at approximately 9 knots, reaches 14 knots when needed, and offers a range of approximately 1,000 nautical miles at 8.75 knots, making her equally at home exploring the Intracoastal Waterway, cruising the Great Loop, island hopping through the Bahamas, or undertaking extended coastal passages. At 7.5 knots, she can run approximately 1,400 nautical miles while maintaining a 200-US-gallon fuel reserve.

Discriminating buyers considering Fleming, Marlow, Hampton, Offshore, Ocean Alexander, or Outer Reef will immediately appreciate that True Love occupies a class of her own. She is not a production yacht—she is a custom-built vessel whose quality, engineering, and seaworthiness would be extraordinarily expensive to replicate today. In fact, her original construction cost exceeded $6 million in 2005, a testament to the uncompromising vision behind her creation.

The current owners envisioned many more years aboard True Love, investing in her accordingly. However, an unexpected change in life circumstances has made it necessary to pass her to new owners sooner than anticipated. She is turnkey, exceptionally well documented, and ready for her next chapter with someone who will appreciate the remarkable yacht she is.

True Love has taken wonderful care of her owners. Now she's ready to do the same for hers.
