Daytona Motor Yacht

 Specifications

Designed by Jack Hargrave who made production Burger and Hatteras motor yachts famous for their design, "La Bella Vita" was custom constructed for the CEO of the Coca Cola Corporation in 1970.   Built by Daytona Boat Works in Daytona Beach Florida under the watchful eye of John Trumpy, La Bella Vita is a true classic with only one sister ship.  She is 65 feet in length, with an 18 foot beam and powered by twin Detroit V12 engines. She has 2 generators, carries 650 gallons of water and can cruise at 16 knots. She has beautiful teak decks from stem to stern, Mahogany and Teak wood throughout her interior, and a decor that is elegant yet completely usable. You will feel right at home!

La Bella Vita has accommodations for 8 guests in 3 private cabins each with its  own private bath.

The aft deck is equipped with a wet bar and surrounded by sliding windows for the fresh sea air to blow through.

      

 

The main salon is designed for your comfort. On days with inclement weather, a video library and wide selection of books and games to choose from are at your fingertips.

The galley is equipped to prepare wonderful meals that you will experience during your cruise.

 

The wood work is amazing. If you appreciate craftsmanship that is part of a bygone era, you will find La Bella Vita a true gem.
