When a boat company only has two styles of craft available, it usually means that they are either really good at creating those two boats and that the demand for the craft has limited their ability to explore new models, or that the company does not have the capital to invest I new vessel development. Thankfully, Fairline Yachts falls into the first category. TARGA and SQUADRON boats from the company have had tremendous success in the luxury yacht sector, making Fairline a manufacturer that is sought after and desired by the avid boatman/woman. Here is what makes them so great when searching Fairline boats for sale.
The history
Fairline was established in 1963 by Jack Newinton. The first boats were made out of Oundle Marina. Yet, it was not until 1967 that the first Fairline vessel was introduced. The handcrafted boats showed growth and in 1985 the company had to have new production sites in Weldon, Corby, and Nene Valley. Up until the growth in 1985, the boats offered were yachts, but not large yachts. It was not until 1991 that the large market boat a 62’ Fairline was introduced. In 2014 the manufacturer began an incorporation with resin infusion technology as well as monocoque deck construction. Currently, the company works with designer Alberto Mancini. Fairline has launced more than 12,000 ships since its induction into the boating industry.
Targa Boats
The Targa boats for sale from Fairline Yachts are express cruisers which have a contemporary design. The hull represents a bullet, being tapered at the bow but having a beveled (rather than the box or cut off) stern. Strong accent windows on the port and the starboard help to accentuate the aerodynamics of the vessel while the curves of the command center lend to the sleek, modernistic design. As this is a luxury yacht, even though it is an express yacht, focus has been given to the fabrics and materials used on both the decking as well as the interior space. The living areas are generally customized to the buyer’s needs. The Targa comes in an Open form and Grand Turismo style with a retractable hard top design.
Price for the Targa boats for sale range from about 40k for the 1996 28’ Targa to around 280k for the 47’ 2004 .
Squadron Boats
The Squadron boat for sale from Fairline are designed for speed as well as for sophistication. The boats range from the 48’ to the 78’ custom boat. The Squadron boats are built more to the traditional standard of the manufacturer, giving a bit of security to those seeking a well-proven design on their boat. At the same time the express cruiser yachts have the modern engineering on the inbound motors, luxurious decking and interior space and such features to give the boat a look all its own.
One unique feature of the Squadron boats for sale is that navigation can be conducted from inside the console or on the top of the boat. If it looks as though you have a small open concept boat on the top of the Flybridge, it is because that is basically what you have. Controls and the open front console layout to these controls can give the owner the sense that he or she is controlling a CC rather than a 65’ luxury yacht (and don’t forget the vantage point you get of the water when cruising from that high up on the boat).
