Belfast, ME, US
ARGENT has enjoyed a storied history of ownership since her inception. Custom designed and built originally as WIDE WATERS for an experienced and knowledgeable West Coast/Newport Beach Yachtsman. His design brief was for a serious capable offshore and coastal cruising yacht that could carry him with speed to Alaska or Mexico where he could enjoy his surroundings at much more leisurely speeds. He chose the renowned firm of C. Raymond Hunt Associates for their expertise in creating very seaworthy boats capable of handling rough water. Her feel is of the space of a much larger yacht.
Current ownership purchased the ARGENT 18 years ago, bringing it by ship to the East Coast. For the last seven winters she has remained in inside heated storage with only summer use.
Strength and systems, as found on larger yachts, were paramount, with a no-nonsense look only betrayed by a warm and beautifully-crafted teak interior. Annual upgrades and improvements are always part of the owner’s program. In keeping with that commitment, during the winter of 2019, the main engines were replaced with 1135 hp Caterpillar C18’s, along with all new running gear and props.
For anyone looking for a serious cruising yacht, ARGENT should be on your list.
