SEA MONSTER

Gulfport Shipbuilding Co.'s naval architecture drives SEA MONSTER's formidable ocean-going credentials, with her 1953 construction reflecting the era's emphasis on robust seakeeping over speed. Seven decades after launch, this 31.39-meter motor yacht continues to demonstrate the engineering principles that made her builder's reputation. Her substantial 7.66-meter beam provides exceptional stability in heavy seas, while the 192-gross-ton displacement delivers the kind of steady, purposeful ride that serious cruising demands. Setzer Yacht Architects' exterior design complements the underlying engineering with proportions that speak to function over flash—clean deck lines that shed water efficiently and superstructure positioning that maintains the yacht's center of gravity exactly where it needs to be. This is a vessel conceived for extended passages and challenging conditions, where the marriage of Gulfport's structural integrity and thoughtful design execution creates something increasingly rare in today's yachting landscape: a genuine seaboat that prioritizes capability over convenience. SEA MONSTER accommodates twelve guests with the kind of space allocation that reflects her serious cruising brief, offering substantial volume within her classic proportions.
