Intermarine is a Brazilian motor yacht builder known for mid-range and larger displacement cruising yachts, typically ranging from 35 to 100+ feet. The brand specializes in semi-custom and production models designed for long-range comfort and seaworthiness, with a focus on practical layouts and reliable propulsion systems. Intermarine yachts are built for owners who prioritize cruising capability and livability over racing performance, with particular strength in the 35–50 foot and 90+ foot segments.

About Intermarine

Intermarine has established itself as a significant builder in the South American yacht market, with a reputation for constructing solid, seaworthy motor yachts intended for extended cruising. The brand's design philosophy centers on functional deck layouts, efficient hull forms, and accommodation that prioritizes comfort for long passages. Rather than chasing cutting-edge styling, Intermarine focuses on proven engineering and practical features that appeal to experienced cruising owners.

The builder's portfolio spans a wide range, from compact 35-foot models suitable for coastal exploration to substantial 95+ foot expedition-style yachts. This range reflects Intermarine's understanding of different cruising profiles—whether a couple seeking a manageable boat for seasonal travel or a family or charter operation requiring larger accommodations and extended range. The brand has built a following among owners who value durability and resale potential over flashy finishes.

What Models Does Intermarine Make?

Intermarine's model lineup includes several key ranges that define the brand's market position:

  • 380 Sport — A 38-foot motor yacht that balances cruising comfort with manageable size. The 380 Sport offers a practical three-cabin layout, modern galley, and the kind of sea-kindly hull that makes sense for owners planning extended coastal or offshore passages. This model sits in Intermarine's sweet spot for owner-operators who want serious range without the complexity of larger vessels.
  • RPH 95 — A 95+ foot semi-custom cruising yacht designed for serious long-range exploration. The RPH 95 represents Intermarine's capability at the larger end of the market, with substantial fuel capacity, multiple staterooms, and the kind of bridge and navigation space expected on expedition-style vessels. This model appeals to owners planning extended blue-water cruising or charter operations.

Intermarine yachts for sale typically reflect these core philosophies: solid construction, proven systems, and layouts designed for extended time at sea rather than dockside glamour. The brand's models tend to hold their positioning across model years, with evolutionary updates to engines, electronics, and interior finishes rather than radical redesigns.

How Is an Intermarine Built?

Intermarine yachts are constructed using traditional fiberglass hull and superstructure methods, with a focus on solid layup schedules and proven structural engineering. The builder emphasizes displacement hulls with full keels or deep forefoot designs—characteristics that prioritize seaworthiness and fuel efficiency over speed. This approach is particularly evident in models like the RPH 95, where hull form is optimized for long-range cruising at economical speeds.

Interior construction typically features solid joinery, with an emphasis on durability and ease of maintenance rather than ultra-light materials or trendy finishes. Intermarine's approach to systems integration reflects the practical needs of cruising owners: redundancy in critical systems, accessible engine rooms, and straightforward layouts that allow owners or crew to perform routine maintenance. The builder's use of established engine packages—typically Caterpillar, Cummins, or similar marine diesel powerplants—means that parts and service support are available worldwide, a significant advantage for long-range cruising.

The semi-custom nature of larger Intermarine models allows for modifications to accommodate specific owner preferences, whether in cabin configurations, galley layouts, or navigation suite specifications. This flexibility has made Intermarine a choice for charter operators and expedition companies that need tailored solutions.

What Does It Cost to Own an Intermarine?

Intermarine yachts, particularly in the 35–50 foot range, occupy a practical middle ground in terms of acquisition cost. A 2014 Intermarine 380 Sport, for example, typically falls in the $400,000–$600,000 range depending on condition, hours, and equipment—significantly more accessible than comparable European or American-built yachts of similar size. Larger models like the RPH 95 command prices reflective of their size and capability, generally ranging from $1.5 million to $3 million depending on age, configuration, and market conditions.

Ownership costs for Intermarine yachts are moderate relative to their size and capability. Because the brand uses widely available diesel engines and standard marine systems, maintenance and parts sourcing are straightforward. Fuel consumption is reasonable for displacement hulls, and insurance costs are competitive. Intermarine yachts tend to hold value reasonably well in the used market, particularly if they've been well-maintained and have documented service histories.

Service networks in North America are limited compared to major European builders, which means owners should factor in occasional travel to qualified service centers or the cost of bringing technicians aboard. However, the simplicity and robustness of Intermarine's systems design means that routine maintenance can often be handled by competent crew or local marine mechanics familiar with standard diesel engines and conventional systems.

What Should Buyers Look For?

When evaluating Intermarine yachts for sale, prioritize survey findings on hull integrity and structural condition. Older models should be examined carefully for any signs of osmotic blistering or delamination, particularly in the topsides. Request full engine service records and hours; Intermarine's reliability depends heavily on proper maintenance of its diesel powerplants, and well-documented service histories are a strong indicator of future reliability.

Check the condition of through-hull fittings, seacocks, and the integrity of the fuel and water systems. On larger models like the RPH 95, verify that all navigation and communication equipment is functional and that the vessel has been regularly updated with current charts and software. Inspect the galley and engine room for signs of corrosion or deferred maintenance—these areas reveal whether previous owners understood the demands of long-range cruising.

For the 380 Sport and similar mid-range models, confirm that the vessel's three-cabin layout suits your intended use and that the navigation station has adequate visibility and space for modern electronics. Verify that the hull has been properly maintained and that any previous repairs have been done to professional standards. Request documentation of any major systems replacements (generators, water makers, air conditioning) and their warranty status.

Model-year considerations are less critical with Intermarine than with some builders, as the brand's designs remain relatively consistent. However, newer models (post-2010) typically feature more efficient engines and updated electrical systems. Older vessels (pre-2005) may require more attention to systems modernization, though a well-maintained example can still offer excellent value and proven reliability.

Red flags include incomplete service records, evidence of amateur repairs, or vessels that have been neglected between owners. Be cautious of heavily discounted examples without clear explanation—Intermarine's solid reputation means that significantly underpriced vessels often have hidden issues. Conversely, a well-maintained Intermarine with full documentation and recent upgrades represents genuine value in the used market.
