Birdsall 65 Centre Cockpit Royale


Designed by the renowned Beau Birdsall, and built in New Zealand. This beautiful yacht has been extremely well cared for by her enthusiastic and knowledgeable Austrian owner.

'BUBBLE' (previously named EXODUS) has been continually upgraded and maintained with extreme attention to detail.

She is a veritable ship that can sail anywhere regardless of the latitude. Her owner travelled from Austria to Fiji to purchase her as he rightly saw her as an ideal yacht to sail north via the most remote parts of the world and explore the arctic circle in comfort. Fitted with a watertight bulkhead and loaded with safety gear she is well and truly ready for some adventures. Her owner, after years of preparation and planning, had to change his sailing plans and stopped in Fiji for private reasons. He will remain on board to keep the boat perfect until sold, and is happy to spend time with the buyer to show how everything works on board and assist with the hand-over / test sail etc.

This Birdsall 65 layout offers huge, open and pleasant living areas. There are 3 cabins, one perfect for crew adjacent the galley with two full size single bunks, another large cabin forward with two more bunks and their own ensuite bathroom with shower, vanity and toilet, and finally a gigantic-full beam master cabin aft, which also has her own large ensuite and which can rival in size and comfort with a small apartment.

A huge sail locker / workshop in pristine condition is meticulously organized and painted brilliant white. A full size washing machine is installed in this room, as well as a large 12V freezer, work bench, tools in tidy boxes, etc. This room is also fitted with two bunks, in case more sleeping space was required. It has a large overhead hatch as well as a full size access door for easy access both from the deck and the cabin.

In spite of her size 'BUBBLE' is a graceful, nimble yacht that can be managed short-handed. Several improvements were made to her equipment list to enable her to be single-handed.

She is registered in Langkawi and currently in Fiji.

Regular surveys conducted in 2019 and 2023 attest to "BUBBLE's" condition. This is a well documented boat, and there is a heap more information available on request.
