This 1972 Trumpy 72 is a classic motor yacht built during the final years of John Trumpy & Sons' legendary shipyard. At 72 feet with an 18-foot beam, she represents the iconic flush-deck "houseboat" design that defined the brand—the third-to-last Trumpy ever constructed and the final example in this highly sought series. Powered by twin Cummins diesel engines totaling 1,340 horsepower, she cruises at 12 knots with a maximum speed of 14 knots, balancing the performance and comfort that made Trumpy yachts famous among American owners.
The yacht accommodates five cabins and five heads, arranged in the comfortable, practical layout characteristic of Trumpy motor yachts. Her wood hull construction reflects the craftsmanship of the era, built to the standards that earned the brand its reputation for quality and longevity.
The boat underwent an extensive refit in 2019 at McMillen Yachts in Portsmouth, Rhode Island. This included fresh hull paint and fully modernized systems throughout. She is presented in well-maintained mechanical and cosmetic condition, ready for immediate use.
