Silver Gate Yacht Club Annual Wheelchair Regatta

This year Mikelson Yachts was lucky enough to participate in Silver Gate Yacht Club's Annual Wheelchair Regatta! For those of you who are not familiar here is what SGYC has to say about their event:

"Long before public awareness and paying it forward for the less fortunate were familiar subjects, the founding members of Silver Gate Yacht Club decided to do something for the community. 53 year...s ago, they came up with the totally radical idea of putting people in a wheelchair, aboard a boat at a floating dock. The SGYC Wheel chair regatta was born.

Today we are honored to continue their legacy. The less fortunate of our community get to enjoy a day on the water. With the young men and women of the Marine Corps providing the muscle power, our guests get lifted, wheel chair and all, and placed on yachts whose owners donate their time and boats to make this day happen."

10 Great Reasons To Buy A Mikelson

Are you looking to buy a custom fishing boat in Southern California? At Mikelson Yachts, we have plenty of luxury fishing yachts for sale that you can choose from. See below for 10 great reasons to buy a custom fishing boat from us.
  1. Performance:

    All Mikelson's have the capability of performing at high cruising speeds with less horsepower. Mikelson's can carry larger loads and more fuel, with an easily driven hull, that has a dry and soft ride. The wide beam and low center-of-gravity keeps the boat stable both under way and at anchor.
  2. Size, Comfort & Luxury:

    The wide beam also allows for more interior in each custom fishing boat. Lots of hatches and windows keep the boat light and open. We offer any available option, with professional consultation to help each buyer decide what will work best for them. Mikelson has always focused on building custom yachts that make sport fishing fun, comfortable and easy to operate.
  3. Top Quality Design & Construction:

    The industries premier art information, materials and products. Equipment is picked from the latest systems available. Strength, durability and accessibility are all major aspects of every installation.
  4. Resale:

    Mikelson has enjoyed a successful history of high resale values, based on the fact that we customize virtually each boat we build making each custom yacht especially desirable, and because "well bought to begin with is half sold".
  5. Customizing:

    Literally every Mikelson built has custom features. We are proud to build yachts to suit their owners, yet still do it at a reasonable price. It can be said that we build semi-custom fishing boats at production boat prices, and we have the flexibility to make the boat personal.
  6. Comfort & Safety:

    The low center-of-gravity and wide beam on every Mikelson makes it a more stable yacht, and the moment of action is lower which also makes it more comfortable. The deck areas are wide and accessible, with nice looking & functional non-skid and rails where they need to be. Access to machinery is excellent for service and safety.
  7. Fuel Economy & Range:

    Mikelson's high speed capability with lower horsepower means less fuel burned per mile. The easily driven hull provides great operating efficiency at trolling long range, mid, and high speeds...a multi-capable hull.
  8. Proven Fishing Capability:

    Mikelson's catch fish!! After Midnight ( Mikelson 75') has been one of the leading money tournament custom fishing boat in the last several years, winning the 2000 Bisbee Black & Blue, 2003 Catalina Classic, & 2003 Zane Gray. Fintastic 2 (Mikelson 43') won the 2001 Catalina Classic. In the mid-1990's, T- Bird (Mikelson 50') was the leading sportfisher for most categories on the west coast of the USA.
  9. Customer Support:

    Customer support is a priority at Mikelson Yachts, and we've seen a loyalty among owners rarely seen in this industry... Just ask any Mikelson owner!
  10. Value:

    . . . see items #1 through #9 above!

Mikelson Yachts proudly builds and sells Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Arizona, California, Southern California, Catalina, Cabo San Lucas, Las Vegas and San Diego custom yachts.
