Introducing the 2012 Marquis 500 Sport Bridge—a stunning example of luxurious yachting with recent upgrades and a story of diligent ownership. The current owners purchased this vessel and have since invested significant time and resources into her maintenance and enhancements. The starboard engine was fully rebuilt and has less than 30 hours, while the other two Volvo Penta IPS engines have 1,050 hours each. Key recent upgrades include the rebuild of three steering servos, three superchargers, the installation of three new starters, and six brand-new batteries. Additionally, one turbo was replaced, and all air conditioning systems were recently serviced. The teak decking was also redone just two weeks ago, though this upgrade is not reflected in the current photos.

Originally, the owners planned a short haul-out period for some of these improvements, but what was supposed to be a three-month project turned into nearly eight months. As a result, the boat has seen limited use, as evidenced by the low hours on the rebuilt starboard engine.

The current ownership is a partnership, with one owner eager to sell while the other is a passionate yachtsman who has meticulously maintained and upgraded the vessel. With a bit more attention, such as reupholstering or stretching and re-gluing the wall coverings, replacing the carpet, a solid compound and wax, and refreshing the cushions (which do not require replacement), this yacht will be in top shape for the next owner.

This Marquis 500 offers a spacious 3-cabin layout and luxurious amenities throughout, making her perfect for coastal cruising and offshore adventures. She has been cared for with attention to detail and would make a great yacht for anyone looking to enjoy a high-performance, fun, and stylish vessel.
