{"id":802,"count":10,"description":"DeFever is represented in the listings by a family of displacement trawlers and motoryachts ranging from the mid-40s to more than 70 feet, including Offshore Cruisers, raised pilothouse (RPH) models, trunk cabin trawlers and cockpit motoryachts. The designs trace to Arthur DeFever and are consistently described as long-range, seaworthy cruising platforms with solid fiberglass hulls, deep full\u2011length keels and protected running gear\u2014attributes cited in hulls that have logged extensive cruising through Central America, the Caribbean and the Great Loop.\n\nInterior arrangements among the examples vary from two to four staterooms and two to four heads, with common features including full\u2011beam aft masters (often with centerline or island berths), en\u2011suite heads with enclosed showers, galley\u2011up salon configurations and expansive walk\u2011in engine rooms that provide near stand\u2011up headroom on some models. Deck and helm arrangements also vary by model type: raised pilothouse versions emphasize sightlines and pilothouse-to-flybridge circulation, while Offshore and Performance variants emphasize large sundecks, flybridges and secure walk\u2011around decks.\n\nEquipment and capability notes in the listings reflect a practical cruising focus. Several examples are described as Great Loop capable, with documented air drafts ranging from as low as 14'6\" via a hinged radar arch to about 18' on a trunk cabin example. At least one 44' hull is fitted with Naiad fin stabilizers, and one 49' RPH example is noted for having an engine-room sea chest\u2014features that speak to offshore comfort and thoughtful systems integration on some boats.\n\nOwnership histories in the listings illustrate common DeFever use patterns: long passages, multi\u2011season cruising and extended ownerships with periodic upgrades. One 72' returned from a multi\u2011month Bahamas cruise, another 49' has had long freshwater storage, and a 57' cockpit motoryacht has documented recent maintenance including oil analysis. These details indicate that listed DeFevers are presented principally as practical, used cruising vessels with layouts and systems intended for extended voyaging.","link":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/brand\/defever\/","name":"Defever","slug":"defever","taxonomy":"brand","parent":0,"meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/brand\/802","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/brand"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/brand"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reference?brand=802"},{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yachts-for-sale?brand=802"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
