Delray Beach, FL

Bidding Closed

Step into the world of sportfishing excellence with this stunning 54′ Rybovich 1970, Hull Number 72. Built by the legendary John Rybovich & Sons Boat Works, TA-BOO is a testament to superior craftsmanship, blending elegance, performance, and heritage into one extraordinary package.

Revered by serious anglers and boating enthusiasts alike, Rybovich yachts are a benchmark in the world of custom sportfishers —and TA-BOO is no exception.

Powered by twin MAN 2848LE engines, this vessel delivers robust performance and reliability, allowing you to reach your fishing destinations with speed and confidence. Her classic lines and rich teak accents exude sophistication, turning heads wherever she cruises, and the beauty of TA-BOO’s traditional design is enhanced by modern updates that bring function to the forefront. 

Below deck you’ll find warm and inviting accommodations crafted for comfort and long-range enjoyment. The well-appointed interior includes spacious sleeping quarters, a fully equipped galley, and a welcoming salon perfect for entertaining guests or relaxing after a day on the water. Every element reflects the care and pride invested in this vessel throughout the years.

TA-BOO has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully upgraded to preserve her pristine condition and iconic status while also focusing on modern reliability. Most recently, the hull was stripped, fiberglassed, and repainted, ensuring she’s ready for her next chapter on the open sea.

Whether you’re a dedicated angler or a lover of vintage yachts, the 54’ Rybovich TA-BOO offers an incredible opportunity to own a classic sportfish that seamlessly marries comfort, legacy and performance.
