2017 Burger Explorer Cockpit Motor Yacht

NORTHLAND is a luxury explorer yacht with a steel hull and bulbous bow built in the USA to a high level of finish by the Burger Boat Company. Original owner and Captain worked closely with the yard to oversee the construction of this custom specification project from the design board of Luis de Basto. This yacht is based in South Florida, and a part of her design premise was to have a reasonable draft for this style of vessel, enabling Bahamas waters friendly usage. Additionally, to have a lower maintenance exterior allowing regular operating with a modest number of crew. The cockpit was designed for offshore fishing although all water activities benefit from the access (tender operation). 

Since her launch in 2017 this owner has kept this beauty moving with extensive travels, including a passage to Norway on her own bottom, utilizing her 4000+ mile range. Dependable CAT power, ABS A1 build quality, strong equipment list are all contributing factors to the success of this venture while keeping practicality as a primary driver. 

Covered walk-around side decks with entry doors to either side (starboard side opens to salon foyer, port side is a crew door to galley) and moving forward are steps up to a Portuguese bridge. Sea stairs can attach to either side at boarding gates onto the aft deck. Aft boarding available via hydraulic passerelle gangway deployed from the starboard side cockpit step. A four stateroom plus crew general arrangement is oriented towards family use, with a Master suite aft on the bridge deck. Two diesel powered tenders are on the forward working deck, allowing for a well utilized fishing cockpit aft. 

Having returned to her home dock in Jupiter, FL, where she will remain while being marketed, NORTHLAND is ready to offer more world class experiences to her second owners.

Four ensuite owner and guest staterooms. The Master Stateroom is on the bridge deck, aft of the pilothouse, and features a king-size bed in spacious privacy with amazing window views and direct access to the bridge afterdeck with settee, table, and chaise lounge chairs. Three guest staterooms are on the lower deck, two cabins with walk-around queen beds and one with large twin berths, plus an extra pullman berth. Accommodations for up to 9 people.

The interior is contemporary styled with an earth tone color palate accented with colorful artwork and a centerpiece "floating" stairway on a background abstract art piece featuring ocean jellyfish. The interior woodwork throughout is an attractive satin finished walnut with horizontal grain pattern. In various areas there are light colored wall panels which are alternated with walnut wood framing to lighten the ambiance of the rooms. The overheads have flush mounted LED lighting (all on dimmers), and most rooms have wood trimmed ceiling features. Lighting and stereo throughout the vessel interior controlled by a Crestron system. The window blinds through most of the deckhouse are Hunter Douglas silhouette style adjustable to the desired level of natural light. The wood flooring through most of the interior walkways is a German weathered Oak with carpeting in all staterooms, the seating area of the Salon, and the forward Library/Theater. The pilothouse sole has beautiful maple and ebony decking. There are day heads on both the main and bridge deck which are modern styled with glass vanity tops, mirror, light colored wall covering, and designer countertop basin sinks/faucets. The day head soles are White Carrera marble, and this same marble is found on the upper and lower staircase landings as well as the soles of all the other heads on the yacht. All the stateroom heads on the boat have glass shower enclosures with shower wands and rain heads. The HVAC system airflow is through ceiling level wood diffuser vents which blend into the decor. There are two make-up air units for the interior to aid fresh circulation.  

There are two entry doors to the salon; from the starboard side and from the aft deck. Entering the starboard side door there is a coat closet aft and a day head entry forward. Looking aft to the salon there is a custom upholstered sofa along the port side with a corner table forward and decor lamp. Next there are two comfortable upholstered armchairs on the forward side. Aft is a sofa chaise lounge with two large leather ottomans in the center with a wood cocktail table between them. Across is a stand-up bar along the starboard side which has white textured panels surrounding its base, a foot railing, and a wood accent band just beneath the bar top. From the counter behind the bar is a pop-up 50-inch HDTV. Above the bar is a wood panel ceiling feature. The seating area is carpeted with Griege patterned Stanton Supreme Bliss, and the sofa backrest cushions and chaise upholstery are complimentary colored and accented with decor pillows and colorful abstract artwork. The rear wall of the salon has complimenting cutout, sheer designer curtains.

The NORTHLAND hull is welded steel using ASTM A36 steel and its superstructure is welded Aluminum using 5000 and 6000 series marine grade aluminum alloys. Built to ABS A1 class regulations with the structure designed to provide watertight integrity utilizing watertight doors, hatches, and windows. All decks have camber to avoid water accumulation, and freeing ports are arranged are per the Classification Society regulation. All (except anchor area of foredeck) decks are fitted with Esthec Nautical Decking material. This is a Dutch made teak alternative which is extremely solid, durable, and easily maintained. Color is Biscuit with dark gray seams. Solid Esthec is also used in the cockpit in place of covering board/coaming, as a cap rail accent centerline aft, on all exterior stairs, and as exterior overhead trim on all three decks. Polished stainless steel name plates are on the flybridge sides and the transom. Fuel fill stations are to either side deck and have Camlock style fittings and containment drains to the oily water tank. 

Beneath the waterline there is a bulbous bow with a 100hp hydraulic proportional bow thruster. The ABT stabilizers have 4 actuator fins and there is a keel which the propellers are well above. There are shaft and rudder tubes and 5-blade Michigan Nibral propellers. Becker Marine Systems high-lift, flap rudders enable remarkable maneuverability. The hull is painted with Awlgrip HDT, primary color is Castle Tan and there are 2 topcoats of clear. Deckhouse is painted with Awlgrip 2000 and color is Stark White. Anti-fouling is Black SeaHawk Biocop - Halkron on the props/running gear/rudders/thruster prop blades. Bottom job is scheduled for mid-July 2026. There are tan Sunbrella covers for virtually everything on the flybridge, both tenders, the bow windlasses and ships bell, search light, air horns, fighting chair, and exterior tables/chairs/settees.

Here is an original owner, USA built and flagged yacht which reflects the quality and functionality of its proud shipbuilder. Proven by travel, NORTHLAND has covered some miles. The captain has been by this boat since the first steel was cut and lived at the shipyard during most of its construction. His typical travel operating is to run 1300rpm at 55% load, making 9.5 to 10 knots and burning a total of about 20 gallons per hour. Trip possibilities are remarkable.
