2000 Jim Smith 65 Open

“Pier Pressure” is a meticulously maintained Jim Smith 65 Open that stands out as one of the finest examples of luxury and performance on the water. Her owners have spared no expense, investing $2 million into a comprehensive 2015-2016 refit — covering full top-end rebuilds on both MTUs, new transmissions, Garmin electronics, a Palm Beach Tuna Tower, and a mezzanine with A/C. Simply put, this Battle Wagon has been cared for the right way. On the water, she delivers in a big way. Built on a Donald Blunt-designed bottom, “Pier Pressure” cruises comfortably at 35 knots burning around 120 gallons per hour, with a top speed of 44 knots when you’re ready to open her up.

When it comes to extended offshore trips and tournaments, where comfort matters as much as performance. The well-appointed 3 stateroom / 3 head layout gives guests and crew plenty of space to relax and recharge — whether you’re out for a single night or a longer stay aboard. “Pier Pressure” checks every box.
