    Our senior members and regular viewers will probably know the details on these yachts, but we'd like to hear from our new visitors. Do you know who built and designed the following yachts?

    The first item up for bids is "Perseverance"...

    And the last two items up for identification... Do you know who the builder is? The first is "Bon Bon". Seems appropriate to bid on the identity of this yacht... it's currently up for auction! I'm including these last two yachts because they were very unique builds and somewhat of a departure from typical designs.

    No cheating. No Google searches. No broker calls. :p

    OK, there's one more left... Perseverance.

    This should be a little harder because you may not find much info by using search engines! :rolleyes:

    It surely must be an Oceanfast !! The only one I could think of that was sold recently and looked about the same length was Mercedes II but it is only a guess.

    Let's make this a little more challenging....

    I'm going to leave out the name of the yacht. Can you identify the builder and designer on this?
