According to the brokerage team at HMY Yacht Sales, Griffin is arguably the nicest 72 Marlow Explorer on the market. They say the owner’s dedication and attention to detail has touched every inch of this boat, with more than $1 million spent in improvements over the last 5 years. Griffin is a 2007 Marlow 72 located in Key West, Florida, and offered by HMY Yacht Sales for $2.469 million.
Beyond the spacious four staterooms and three heads plus crew quarters with head), Griffin has been constantly updated over the last seven years. This boat has allowed a cruising couple to easily, and very comfortably, run it from the Chesapeake Bay to Florida and the Bahamas; it has been consistently used and is currently cruising South Florida and the Bahamas as of winter 2025.
The command bridge of the 72E-CB is an impressive spot to both run the boat, in any condition, with 3600degree views and a serious electronics package for cruising.
