Embrace the opportunity to own a true classic with DOVETAIL, a rare and remarkable vessel that stands as a testament to the legendary Trumpy motor yachts. Meticulously maintained to the highest standards, she is in pristine Bristol condition and exemplifies the craftsmanship that has made Trumpy renowned. Now available for sale through Block Island Maritime Funding (BIMF), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, DOVETAIL can be acquired through a flexible, interest-free three-year lease-to-purchase program, with various payment options like monthly, quarterly, annually, or upfront. 

The legacy of Trumpy began five generations ago when Casper Trumpy established a shipyard in Bergen, Norway. His son, John Trumpy, honed his craft before relocating to America, where he partnered with the John H. Mathis Shipyard in Camden, New Jersey. Together, they revolutionized yacht design to cater to the demands of wealthy Americans seeking fast, luxurious vessels. Trumpy yachts were designed with a focus on speed and comfort, quickly gaining popularity among affluent families like the Guggenheims and Chryslers. Notably, the 104' SEQUOIA II served as the U.S. Presidential Yacht, while the 148' ALAMO became a U.S. Navy patrol yacht during WWII.

DOVETAIL (Contract #446) is a significant piece of history, being the third-to-last Trumpy ever built and the final model in the coveted classic flush deck "houseboat" series. She is in exceptional mechanical and cosmetic condition, featuring fresh hull paint and fully modernized systems, making her nearly turnkey. After an extensive refit by McMillen Yachts in 2019, she is beautifully maintained and ready for her next chapter. Originally launched in 1972 as GERIFAY, she served as the official committee boat for the 1974 America's Cup races in Newport, Rhode Island. Over the years, she has been known by several distinguished names, including LADY Q and STATELY LADY. With exemplary care from her previous owner, DOVETAIL is in superb condition, inviting you to make her your own. Schedule a showing today!
