C.D Holmes Clovelly Class Tender Fleet
CD HOLMES CLOVELLY CLASS 24 m
EX-ROYAL NAVY - CD HOLMES CLOVELLY CLASS TENDER FLEET - FLOATING RESIDENCE & CARIBBEAN CHARTER OPPORTUNITY
A rare opportunity to acquire a characterful yacht combining maritime history, military robustness and proven commercial potential.
Built in 1969/1970 for the British Royal Navy, this 24-meter steel trawler, from the renowned CD Holmes Clovelly Class fleet, was designed to withstand the demanding conditions of the North Sea. Today, entirely converted into a floating residence and guest boat, M/Y INDEPENDENCE offers a unique combination of authenticity, modern comfort and turnkey commercial operation.
Its distinctive appearance, enhanced by custom finishing, gives it strong visual identity and significant marketing potential in the experiential tourism sector.

Year: 1969/1970 (former military vessel)

LOCATION
Based in the Caribbean, in the heart of one of the world's finest sailing areas (Saint-Martin, Anguilla, Saint-Barthélemy and surrounding islands).
WHY THIS BOAT IS UNIQUE
Unlike standardized modern yachts, this vessel offers:
Exceptional steel construction (military heritage)
Authentic maritime history
Strong and distinctive visual identity
Established commercial activity
Rare versatility between private and professional use
