2018 Palm Beach PB55 "Sweet Karen" For Sale

2018 Palm Beach Motor Yachts PB55 — SWEET KAREN

SWEET KAREN is a well-maintained 2018 Palm Beach PB55 in excellent condition, the result of consistent, attentive care throughout her life.

She's been looked after by a full-time crew, with a regular schedule of washing and detailing and routine shipyard intervals. Her owner has gone beyond standard upkeep, adding thoughtful upgrades that extend her cruising range, protect onboard systems, and improve comfort aboard. New bottom paint was completed in February 2026.

Her layout is built for comfortable cruising, with three staterooms, two heads, a galley-up arrangement, and a stand-up helm station. Storage is generous throughout the yacht.

She's also well equipped, featuring a Seakeeper gyro stabilization system, an Opacmare Transformer swim platform, and a tender in a dedicated tender garage, among other features.

SWEET KAREN is an excellent opportunity to own a Palm Beach PB55 that's ready to cruise. We'd be glad to arrange a viewing.
