1998 Burger 107' _{(32.61 m)} Raised Pilothouse

Overview

SILVER SEAS is a 107-foot Burger Motor Yacht—an American aluminum classic that has undergone an extraordinary multi-year refit and renewal, emerging as a comprehensively refreshed and mechanically renewed example of Burger’s enduring craftsmanship. Built in 1998 by Burger Boat Company and designed by Don O’Keeffe, she was commissioned by an experienced yachtsman as his second Burger—an endorsement of the brand’s reputation for quality and longevity. Throughout her life, SILVER SEAS has benefited from knowledgeable ownership that understood the value of pedigree aluminum construction and disciplined stewardship.

Her most recent ownership undertook an uncompromising restoration that extended far beyond cosmetic updates, addressing machinery, onboard systems, and overall operational integrity. The result is a yacht that preserves her timeless Burger profile while delivering renewed mechanical confidence and reliability.

Key Features

• Four-stateroom layout with full beam primary

Refit

This was not merely a cosmetic refit. SILVER SEAS underwent a comprehensive, multi-year restoration addressing her exterior finishes, mechanical systems, and interior spaces. Major works included, but were not limited to:

• Complete hull re-fairing prior to repainting

• Full hull paint (2024) and superstructure refinishing

• Removal and professional re-bedding of all exterior windows

The result is a Burger motor yacht that reflects disciplined stewardship and presents today with a high level of mechanical readiness and cosmetic refinement, while preserving the timeless design and craftsmanship for which Burger is respected.
