Hargrave Yachts for Sale

One of America’s top shipyards, Hargrave has been producing yachts since the 1950s. Over the decades, the Hargrave shipyard has established a reputation for progressive designs and speedy sports boats.

When the company was originally founded by nautical designer, Jack Hargrave, design was the main focus and Jack worked with other leading US brands such as Burger and Hatteras for the boat construction. Hargrave’s designs played an important role in the independent success of those brand names as well.

Whilst continuing to design yachts, the company added yacht construction to its offering in 1997, following the death of Jack Hargrave in 1996. Hargrave then became known as Hargrave Custom Yachts.

The shipyard has enjoyed continued success and now builds a variety of yachts from 68 – 136ft (21 – 42m) in length. For the construction of larger vessels, Hargrave has a number of collaborative options and international partners. For over 30 years Hargrave has worked with the Taiwanese shipyard, Kha Shing, and recently larger vessels, such as the 136-foot (42m) DREAMER, have been built in Turkey.

The Hargrave shipyard enjoys strong repeat business from existing clients and remains a key name in the yachting industry. Recent statistics showed that over 52% of Hargrave owners have built more than one yacht with the yard, and some are onto their third, even fourth, new Hargrave.

History of Hargrave Yachts

The Hargrave shipyard was founded by nautical designer, Jack Hargrave, in 1957 and is widely regarded as one of the top shipyards in the United States.

Through the 1960s, ‘70s and ‘80s, Hargrave was largely a design office, collaborating with other builders for the construction of Hargrave-designed vessels.

Following the death of Jack Hargrave in 1996, former Hargrave employee Michael Joyce returned to the company after an absence of twenty years and took over as President and CEO. Recognizing that Hargrave had the potential to be far more than just a design office, Joyce pursued new yacht construction with full force.

Joyce was a visionary entrepreneur with a passion for yachting. A keen innovator, Joyce embraced the changing times and technological advancements that came through the late nineties and early noughties and presented custom yachts between 80 – 150 feet (24 – 45m) to the marketplace.

Joyce stepped down as president of Hargrave in 2007, in favor of Michael DiCondina, but remains the full share-owner. Mike DiCondina and his team were selling and delivering new Hargrave yachts throughout the decade-long recession and at that date of handover he had the vision to expand into larger yachts. Now Hargrave builds up to 136-foot (42m) boats.

Putting the fun back into yachting one owner at a time

The Hargrave collection

The first Hargrave motor yacht was delivered in 1999 and Hargrave quickly made a name for itself, winning numerous awards for its sporty tri-deck motor yachts and sportfish-inspired vessels. This first Hargrave-built vessel was 87-foot (26.7m) long and was named HOUND DOG.

Hargrave shipyard has enjoyed several decades of steady advancement and brand awareness. The yard prides itself on building a wide variety of yachts ranging from 68ft to 136ft (21m to 42m) and also has a number of collaborative options for the construction of larger vessels.

Notable vessels from the Hargrave range include 138-foot (42m) DREAMER, launched in 2010, and the 115-foot (35m) RENAISSANCE, which was delivered in 2015 and built in collaboration with Kha Shing Enterprises.

The Hargrave shipyard continues to enjoy steady repeat business from existing clients and their largest build to date, which measures 184 feet (56m) was for a three-time Hargrave owner. This 184-foot superyacht was launched in 2019 and is named BABA’S. Motor Yacht BABA’s is of steel construction and was built to RINA classification. The luxury yacht has accommodation for 12 guests and 5,000nm range.

The Hargrave History

Without the genius of Jack Hargrave, founder of Hargrave Yachts, the yachting world we know and love would be a different landscape. His design work played a significant role in shaping the face of modern yachting, creating the iconic American Yacht look that survives to this day. From its first incarnation as the top yacht design firm in America, Hargrave Yachts has formed into the foremost builder of custom yachts in the 70′ to 135′ range with a reputation for outstanding service and impeccable quality. Jack Hargrave started his career designing sportfishing boats for Rybovitch before leaving to open his own design shop in 1958. The direction of yachting was forever changed on the day that Willis Slade asked Hargrave to design the world’s first large fiberglass sportfishing yacht. When the resulting yacht, was launched to acclaim in 1960, it marked the beginning of Hatteras Yachts and the birth of a new industry. Jack Hargrave had a talent for combining timeless exterior profiles with practical, functional interior arrangements, producing vessels that came to define the American style of yachts. Over the next 40+ years, he designed more than 75 powerboats for Hatteras, going on to design over 250 yachts for some of America’s premiere yacht companies, including Burger, Amels, Prairie, Atlantic, Striker, and Halmatic. His influence and skill as the foremost American naval architect and yacht designer led to his induction into the NMMA Hall of Fame in 1996, and kept his company on its pinnacle as America’s top naval design firm. In 1997, shortly after the legendary designer passed away, a former employee named Michael Joyce returned to the firm to take over as president and CEO. Joyce was determined not to let the iconic company fade away, convinced that Hargrave, far more than just a design firm, was in fact a brand name. Joyce realized that Hargrave could no longer rely on builders for steady busines. Soon to be the most successful yacht builders had formed their own in-house design and engineering departments. He conceived a plan to expand the company into a constructor of custom luxury yachts, and Hargrave Custom Yachts was born. Hargrave Yachts produces a full line of custom-built yachts, designed entirely to the specifications of each owner. They offer a unique cost effective program that blends a custom design with a semi-production build process, giving the savings back to the client. Their attention to detail and unwaveringly high standards are paying off. More than half of their owners  have built more than one yacht with them and some are now on their fourth order!

Savvy Intent

• By Kim Kavin
• Updated: August 2, 2016

Mike Dicondina was looking at the numbers. As president of Hargrave Custom Yachts , he knew that the builder’s 100-footers did well on the charter market. “But I noticed on our 125 that we were able to get double the amount of money, about $85,000 a week versus $45,000,” he says. “That’s a big difference.”

He started talking with a charter-savvy owner who had already built three yachts with Hargrave, all in the 100-foot range. DiCondina told the owner about the income disparity on charter bookings, as well as the build-quality success that Hargrave had found with the 114-foot Donna Marie II, which launched in 2013 on a newly designed hull by noted naval architect Jack Sarin.

“We’re moving into the next niche in the market, and he has always been a forefront leader for us,” DiCondina says of the owner. “I said, ‘For the future, down the road, why don’t we try to make a five-stateroom boat with the on-deck master?’”

That’s how the idea was born for the 116-foot Hargrave Renaissance . She made her world debut this past February at the Yachts Miami Beach show, and by early June, DiCondina says, she already had four charters booked at the $85,000-a-week rate.

DiCondina says the clients are responding not only to the yacht’s size, but more specifically to her performance and layout. The owner of Renaissance plans to move the yacht seasonally between New England and the Bahamas, where her shallow, 6-foot draft is key for charter clients who want to get close to the beaches. With a cruising speed of 20 knots and a top speed of 23 knots, DiCondina says, Renaissance is also plenty fast for charter clients who want itineraries with more than just a handful of islands or ports along the way.

“We were shooting for 24 knots,” he says. “We hit 23. But for us, I’m impressed. Normally, a Hargrave tops out at 21 knots.”

DiCondina says that many charter clients are also responding to the accommodations layout aboard Renaissance . Each of the five guest staterooms has either a permanent king-size berth or a set of twins that can convert to kings.

“It’s huge for charter,” he says. “That’s one of the things, when we were designing the boat, we really honed in on. We wanted to set it up so that you had four or five couples. We didn’t want anybody feeling slighted. You can split the cost.”

Fit and finish aboard Renaissance are the same high quality for which Hargrave has long been known. The owner chose sapele mahogany with neutral fabrics, which he also had aboard his previous Hargrave (he found that the decor created a traditional ambience most charter clients liked).

The owner also worked with Hargrave to ensure that the builder maximized volume for guest enjoyment. Originally, the build was going to be 112 feet length overall. At the final 116-foot LOA, more possibilities presented themselves.

“When you go up to the flybridge, you have a large, expansive area,” DiCondina says. “Ten people on the boat are not going to be tight. You have the four lounge chairs aft, three separated seating areas, seating across from the bar. Space-wise, it’s really well done for a group of people to be together and not be on top of each other.”

Renaissance is chartering under the command of longtime Capt. Doug Meier, who has stocked her with countless water toys, including a remote-operated vehicle with the same kind of technology used to find the Titanic (see “ Play a Whole New Way ,” March 2016). As the captain and owner continue to perfect the charter program, might an even larger Hargrave be in the owner’s future?

“This is probably his last,” DiCondina says, “but his wife is a little younger, and she said to me, ‘Don’t worry, I’m not out.’”
