Defever 49 Pilothouse

Offered for the first time since new, this classic 1979 DeFever 49’ Pilothouse has been under the same meticulous ownership for over four decades. A true example of pride of ownership, she has been cared for at all times and consistently kept in a covered, freshwater slip—preserving her condition far beyond most of her vintage.

Designed with the timeless lines and seaworthy reputation that DeFever yachts are known for, this 49’ Pilothouse combines traditional craftsmanship with comfortable long-range cruising capability. The practical pilothouse layout provides excellent visibility and access, while her wide side decks, generous beam, and expansive living spaces make her equally well-suited for extended passages or relaxed dockside living.

A rare opportunity to acquire a one-owner DeFever that has been lovingly maintained and protected since launch, this vessel represents a piece of yachting history with many more adventures ahead.

Call ahead to arrange showings, as the boat is kept in a secure yacht club marina.
