WHAT OWNERS SAY ABOUT PALM BEACH MOTOR YACHTS

PB65 “TRIPLE TREAT”

“I was very impressed with the first boat I bought, a PB50. It was a great boat but more-so, it was Mark’s commitment to quality... getting things right. He is a perfectionist. His whole approach to building a boat… we both come from sailing backgrounds - he likes to build them light and fast and strong. His attitude is ’Near enough is not good enough!’”

STEPHEN AINSWORTH, PB65 “TRIPLE TREAT”

PALM BEACH 45, “LE REVE”

“My relationship with Palm Beach has been excellent since first meeting. My PB45 has classic good looks and is a “head turner” in every harbor, but more importantly it has excellent build quality and all onboard systems, including power and electronics, work flawlessly. And the performance, ride, and handling of my PB45 in any seaway are second to none. There’s always been full access to the entire Palm Beach team, including the president, Mark Richards. Buying my PB45, Le Reve, is one of the better decisions I’ve made in my life.”

DAVE SPALDING, PALM BEACH 45, “LE REVE”

PB65 “RENA G”

“They’re big, fast, with superior sea handling. I’ve been in 7m (23’) swells behind us with a 2m (7’) chop on top, and on the beam coming from the left-hand side was about a 100 Km/h (54 knots) wind. And not once did any of the waves break over the bow...the bow always came up, which is testimony to how light and strong the boat is. It’s just an incredible sea-handling boat!”

ANDY GREIG, PB65 “RENA G”

PB52, “SOUTHERN DRAW”

“Our experience from the outset of introduction to the team, all the way through the sales process, delivery, and now follow up service has been extraordinary. We have built and owned many yachts, and the response that we have received from Grand Banks/Palm Beach has been truly exceptional. Every detail is addressed, which very obviously filters all the way through the organization. A true first class operation.”

BRIAN DARNELL, PB52, “SOUTHERN DRAW”

PALM BEACH 45, “BLACKSWAN”

“It was love at first sight when we first saw a PB45 at a Florida boat show. Now a few years on, our PB45 BlackSwan looks brand-new, performs flawlessly and easily handles even the heaviest seas. Of course it is still a head turner. The ownership experience has been outstanding with the people of Palm Beach Yachts going the extra mile to ensure it remains so.”

DAVID CLARKE, PALM BEACH 45, “BLACKSWAN”
