M/V Bella is one of only two Sunseeker 82 Yachts currently available for sale in the entire United States — a rare opportunity to own one of the most sought-after British-built motor yachts in the 80-foot class. Located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, this 2005 Sunseeker 82 has been meticulously maintained and recently refreshed with a comprehensive 2022 interior refit.
Bella features three expansive decks offering exceptional space for cruising and entertaining. The main salon is a full-beam living area with generous natural light, reupholstered furniture (2022), and new window blinds throughout. The well-appointed galley received new countertops and backsplash in 2022, complementing the full-size fridge/freezer, four-burner cooktop, microwave/oven, and dishwasher.
The flybridge is the social heart of the yacht, featuring a wet bar, BBQ grill, comfortable sun lounges, and 360-degree panoramic views — ideal for entertaining or relaxed cruising. The foredeck provides additional sun pads and seating, while the aft deck is perfect for al fresco dining.
Below decks, M/V Bella accommodates guests across four private staterooms, each with its own en-suite head. The full-beam master suite features a king berth and generous storage. Dedicated crew quarters forward ensure privacy for owners and guests alike.
Bella is powered by twin Caterpillar C30 diesel engines (1,550 HP each) with only 1,956 hours — the lowest of any Sunseeker 82 available in the U.S. The critical 3,000-hour major service was completed in 2022, meaning the engines are mid-life serviced and ready for thousands more hours of reliable cruising. Maximum speed is 29 knots with a comfortable cruising speed of 24 knots and a fuel capacity of approximately 1,348 gallons for extended range.
Additional features include hydraulic bow and stern thrusters for precision docking, a hydraulic swim platform, Atlas shore power converter, and full navigation electronics. This Sunseeker yacht for sale in Fort Lauderdale represents exceptional value for buyers seeking a proven, well-maintained luxury motor yacht under $1.5 million.
Specifications
Bella is a standout example of Sunseeker’s highly respected 82 Yacht model, offering exceptional volume, performance, and craftsmanship in an 80–85’ motor yacht platform. Carefully maintained and thoughtfully updated, Bella shows far newer than her 2005 vintage and benefits from major mechanical services already completed, making her a true turnkey opportunity.
Her four-stateroom, four-head layout, full-beam master, separate crew quarters, and expansive flybridge make her equally well suited for private family cruising, Bahamas adventures, or entertaining guests in style. With proven Caterpillar C30 power, a comfortable 24-knot cruise, and excellent onboard systems, Bella represents outstanding value compared to newer yachts at a significantly higher cost.
Conveniently located in Fort Lauderdale, she is easy to inspect and ready for immediate use.
