The 1981 DeFever Passagemaker is a 41-foot sedan bridge cruiser built on a fiberglass hull. Twin Perkins diesel engines provide 400 horsepower combined, delivering the power needed for extended cruising.
The boat is equipped with autopilot, radar, and GPS navigation systems. The design balances comfort and seaworthiness, with an aft cabin layout suited to overnight passages and leisurely exploration.
Built during an era when DeFever earned a reputation for solid construction, this Passagemaker represents the kind of capable cruising platform the builder was known for—a boat designed to cover distance reliably.
