    I own a 54 foot Pama the we had built in 2007. We are currently looking to have them build a larger 62 foot Pama, so our is going up for sale. It is in excellent condition and has had many upgrades.

    Yes, we have taken our 54 Pama to the Bahamas many times. We usually go to the Abacos, but often to Nassau and then the Exumas. As far south as Georgetown and spend a month in the Berry Islands. The boat handles much better than most that we have traveled on in our size. We are very happy with her ability to handle the weather and the seas.

    No we are not. We have talked to a few people who have some interest, but we have not been in a rush to market her yet.

    I suppose if we sell the boat personally, the buyer will save the commission.

    We bought a 2007 Pama 54’ in May and really enjoy it. I’ve put over 120 hrs on engines durinf the 27 days we’ve used her over the last 8 months. We converted the office to a bunk room, added Bimini, watermaker & upgraded to new Garmin 7612s. We love the layout and performance.


    PM me and I can give you more info and some thoughts.

    Click on my name/icon then click on “ start a conversation.

    So far I’ve been as far north as Daytona, as far south as Ocean Reef and we went East to Bimini and Great Issac. Most cruises have been on ICW.

    What I love is the fact I can go 8 mph at 5gph on the ICW , but can also cruise @20mph @ 30 gph to cross ocean or Biscayne Bay.

    We live on the flybridge and guests love riding on the bow sunpad.

    Great feedback! And glad to see the Pama is getting a little recognition. Love to hear more about first hand experiences with the boat!

    Good morning, yes we are still interested In selling our Pama. We do not have it listed on ************** , but I can send you lots of information. We started planning a 5 month trip to the Bahamas, so we were going to hold off buying a larger boat until next year, but if you are ready we can adjust. I will figure out how to contact you offline.

    Thank you,

    David
