Factory-direct also means buyers will avoid paying traditional mark-up costs added to the purchase price by a re-seller. Since these mark-ups usually add up to 20 percent, Bravada’s new factory-direct solution means huge savings are passed on to the buyer. Couple that with splitting [OLJVZ[ZHTVUNÄ]L[V[LUWHY[ULYZHUKV\JHUZLLOV^LHZ`P[PZ
to enjoy what Bravada has coined “Attainable Luxury.”
With bold, innovative designs, quality craftsmanship, and high
performance backing each build, this high-end yacht builder is
ready to make some waves.

Owner Quote

“We chose Bravada for the unique customization choices. The

look of the V70 is the most aggressive styling boat available and

the look is in the vein of a sporty yacht. We were updated along the

build process with a blog showing progress of our boat. We were

able to choose everything from how much shade we wanted on

the top deck to where the daybeds were placed. We added a hot

tub and an oversized refrigerator and were even able to choose the

exact length we wanted – exactly 69 feet, 11 inches for a discount

on slip fees (70 feet and under is less than 70 feet and over).”

• Kevin Kennedy, Lake Powell, Ariz.

Looking to 2018

With new owners, new equipment, a new factory and a bold

new vision, all 2018 Bravada models have been redesigned and

modernized to continue driving the houseboating and lake yachting

industries forward. The 2018 lineup includes a wider selection of

custom models, lengths and pricing. You can expect to see Brava-

da Yachts at more lakes and marinas all across the country in the

coming years.
