143’ (43.59m) Classic Feadship TRUE NORTH Now Asking $8,995,000

Posted May 6, 2025 in Brokerage & New Build

The 143′ (43.6m) Feadship TRUE NORTH has received a significant $1,000,000 price reduction. Now listed at $8,995,000 with Yacht Brokers Kevin Merrigan and Kristen Klein, she offers luxury and global capability at an exceptional value.

Built at the Van Lent shipyard and launched in 1987 as FIFFANELLA, TRUE NORTH carries a rich heritage of global cruising under knowledgeable, experienced owners. Her steel hull, aluminum superstructure and all-teak decks make her as tough as she is elegant—built for serious exploration, including shallow waters like The Bahamas.

Following a comprehensive refit in 2021, which included a full exterior paint job by Progressive Yacht Refinishing in Fort Lauderdale, she underwent more than $4 million in capital improvements. These upgrades include a new A/C chiller plant with all 27 air handlers replaced, fully updated navigation and A/V systems, a new Headhunter system, and extensive work to meet Bureau Veritas 35-year survey requirements, including replating of the hull and resurfacing of tanks. TRUE NORTH is in turnkey condition and ready for her next owner.

TRUE NORTH’s interior strikes a balance of classic charm and contemporary style. She comfortably sleeps up to 16 guests in five spacious staterooms. The full-beam on-deck master stateroom features separate his-and-her ensuites finished in Crema Marfil marble. On the lower deck, four versatile guest staterooms offer flexible sleeping arrangements, each with ensuite baths—perfect for large families or charter use.

This yacht is designed with comfort in mind, featuring Quantum zero-speed stabilizers for ultimate onboard comfort whether underway or at anchor. Dedicated private crew staircases ensure seamless service throughout.

Outdoor living is equally impressive. Her expansive sundeck boasts a Jacuzzi, swim-up bar, and sun loungers. The covered aft deck offers a scenic spot for alfresco dining, and her large swim platform with deck shower and ladder provides effortless access to the water.

TRUE NORTH also delivers long-range capability, powered by twin CAT 3508 DI-TA engines with a 4,000nm range at 11 knots. With U.S. Duty Paid, she’s ready to cruise anywhere you dream to go.
