Miami Yachting represented the buyer of Sound View, a 2013 Pershing 64, guiding the client from an open-ended search to a purchase negotiated significantly below the $700,000 asking, then moving the yacht straight into its Project Management division to prepare it for charter. The client came to us in Miami with one clear objective: acquire the right yacht to build a new charter operation, with a single team handling every step from search to first booking.
The Pershing 64 is a Fulvio De Simoni design built by the Ferretti Group — a sport motor yacht that carries real presence at the dock and genuine pace once the harbor is behind it. Its three-cabin layout, wide main deck, and easy indoor-outdoor flow make it as convincing in front of charter guests as it is on a fast run across the Gulf Stream. For a buyer entering the charter market, that combination of comfort, style, and speed is what supports strong booking demand and a premium day rate. Sound View, built in 2013, came to the search as a well-kept example of the model and the right platform to build the operation on.
Capt. Randy A. Gomez represented the buyer throughout the search and acquisition, weighing candidates against the charter business plan until Sound View emerged as the right opportunity. Originally offered at $700,000, the Pershing 64 was negotiated by our yacht brokerage team at a significantly lower price. We stayed with the client through every stage of buying the yacht — negotiation, marine survey, documentation, and closing — and advised on the planning required to establish the charter operation that would follow, from ownership structure to the preparation timeline.
The engagement did not end at closing. Following the acquisition, the Pershing 64 entered Miami Yachting's Project Management division, where our team is now coordinating the repairs, upgrades, and preparation the yacht needs before it is introduced to the charter market. Handling the sale and the refit under one roof keeps the schedule tight and the standard consistent, with no handoff between the broker who knows the deal and the team preparing the boat. A complete process from acquisition to operation, managed under one team.
