Description
BRAVEHEART 2 is an outstanding example of the Lowland 80 Motor Yacht, boasting all-welded aluminum construction, a single hull with a double bottom and twin-screw propulsion with fin stabilizers. Designed by Pieter Beeldsnijer and built by Neth Ships Lowland Yachts BV in Holland in 1987, this yacht exemplifies the craftsmanship and quality associated with the Dutch shipbuilding tradition.
At 82’ (25.75m) in length, and with a draft of 1.65m, BRAVEHEART 2 is perfectly suited for easy access to most anchorages. She is an economical cruiser, with a fuel consumption of just 57 liters per hour for both engines and generators, offering a range of around 2,000 nautical miles at a cruising speed of 12 knots. She boasts Wesmar hydraulic fin stabilizers and a SidePowder bow thruster.
The yacht has a rich history, initially launched for the U.S. market and spending years navigating the Intercoastal waterways on the east coast. BRAVEHEART 2 was later transported to New Zealand, where the current owners acquired her in 2013. They registered her in New Zealand and sailed her across the Tasman Sea to Australia, ensuring she met stringent safety standards, including full Cat 1 safety equipment.
In 2016, BRAVEHEART 2 underwent a comprehensive refit at Boat Works in Coomera, QLD, with over AUD 1M invested. The refit included stripping the hull to bare metal, replacing grey and black water structural tanks, converting from 110VAC to 230VAC, rebuilding the port engine, installing new shafts and generators and adding a custom hydraulic platform on the transom. This platform now supports a large tender, enhancing BRAVEHEART 2’s versatility. Following the refit, the yacht cruised extensively, from NE Queensland and across the top of Australia to Southeast Asia, including Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore. Currently, she is berthed at Nongsa Point Marina in Batam, a short ferry ride from Singapore.
The interior of BRAVEHEART 2 is spacious and comfortable, featuring light beech wood with dark timber trims, fully carpeted throughout the saloon and guest cabins. The open galley, equipped with granite countertops, a breakfast bar and modern appliances, is designed for both convenience and style. The main salon, accessible via sliding glass doors from the cockpit, includes a bar area, a large C-shaped sofa and a dining area with bench seating for six.
BRAVEHEART 2 accommodates up to 10 guests in four well-appointed cabins. The full-beam master cabin, accessed via a dedicated companionway, features a queen-sized bed, ample storage and his-and-hers bathrooms with a large central shower stall. The forward VIP cabin offers a queen bed and en-suite head, while the port and starboard twin cabins each have single berths and Pullman beds, also with en-suite facilities.
The wheelhouse, located at the forward end of the main deck, includes a helm chair, excellent visibility, and access to the side decks and foredeck through sliding doors. The flybridge, accessed via an interior staircase, features a central helm, guest seating, and ample space for safety gear and additional tenders.
BRAVEHEART 2's exterior design is both purposeful and spacious, with a modern, well-balanced look. The aft deck includes a teak cockpit area, a large lazarette, and a sheltered mezzanine level with an outdoor table and chairs. The flybridge provides a commanding view and is equipped with a stainless steel Bimini frame, fixed seating, and a U-shaped sofa around a hi-lo table. The foredeck, accessible from the wheelhouse, includes a sunpad and anchor windlass.
With her robust build, extensive refit and spacious accommodations, BRAVEHEART 2 is a yacht that offers both comfort and performance, making her an ideal choice for those seeking to explore the world's oceans.
