1963 Whiticar 54 Sportfisherman

This 1963 Whiticar 54 Sportfisherman is a mahogany plank-on-frame yacht with a fiberglassed hull, powered by twin MAN diesel engines producing 1,600 horsepower. She reaches a maximum speed of 33 knots and cruises comfortably at 29 knots, backed by a solid beam of 15 feet that delivers the stability expected of her classic sportfishing design.

The boat underwent comprehensive structural and mechanical work between 2018 and 2023, including fairing, new paint, and teak refinishing throughout. Two staterooms and two heads provide overnight accommodations, with an additional companionway bunk for flexibility. Trim tabs are fitted for improved handling and sea-keeping.

Built to the standards that made Whiticar vessels legendary, this sportfisherman combines traditional construction methods with the upgrades completed during her multi-year refit. The work was carried out across respected facilities, ensuring attention to detail in both structural integrity and systems.
