Our Thoughts

The 2002 President 100 Motor Yacht "Glen Ellen" represents a substantial, well-maintained offshore cruising platform ideally suited for extended voyages and serious boating operations. At 100 feet with a 22.33-foot beam and 5.75-foot draft, this fiberglass motor yacht combines manageable proportions with genuine seagoing capability, proven by the owner's documented preparation for an Alaska cruise from Fort Lauderdale.

Hull, Construction & Propulsion

The President 100 features a modified semi-planning hull with molded spray rails and integral propeller tunnels designed to optimize propulsive efficiency while reducing draft—a thoughtful engineering detail that enhances both performance and practicality for extended cruising. Hand-laid glass fiber construction with isophthalic gelcoat and an osmosis barrier, combined with composite I-beam integrally bonded girders and GRP/balsa core/PVC foam sandwich construction throughout the deck and superstructure, delivers the strength and thermal insulation expected of a vessel designed for serious offshore operation.

The major engine work completed under documented supervision is the most significant recent investment. In 2019, the main engines underwent a major overhaul at Pantropic Cat, the President/Caterpillar dealer in Fort Lauderdale, and now carry 750 hours since that service. The 3,200-gallon fuel capacity and 1,200-nautical-mile cruising range provide the endurance essential for extended passages; maximum range extends to 450 nautical miles at higher speeds. Twin hydraulic bow and stern thrusters, power-assisted steering, and electro-hydraulic trim tabs with dual-station control offer the precision maneuvering required for tight situations and confident docking.

Electrical & Generator Systems

The electrical architecture reflects the demands of long-term cruising and full-time liveaboard operation. The 24-volt system comprises four heavy-duty 225-amp-hour engine-starting batteries and two separate ship-service battery banks totaling sixteen 225-amp-hour auxiliary batteries, charged by engine alternators and supported by dual battery chargers (40-amp and 120-amp at 24 volts). Two Trace inverters (4,000 watts each) provide seamless AC power, while a 24-to-12-volt converter network supports navigation and radio circuits.

The generator installation was completely replaced in 2021 with two Northern Lights units—a 30-kilowatt and 40-kilowatt diesel generator, both with individual sound shields and silenced exhaust systems. These generators carry just 300 hours since installation. Dual 50-amp shore-power inlets with Glendinning cable master systems (75-foot self-stowing cables each) and fixed Marinco connections ensure reliable connection in any marina environment. A polarity check system and earth leakage safety trip provide essential electrical safety.

Navigation, Radar & Electronics

Navigation systems reflect a layered, redundant approach appropriate for offshore operation. The skylounge wheelhouse houses a Furuno NavNet v2 system with radar, depth sounder, and chart plotter; a separate Raymarine touch-screen chart plotter with depth sounder; and a Furuno AIS system for vessel tracking. The flybridge includes a small Raymarine chart plotter, stand-alone NavNet black box, and repeat radar and GPS display with full controls. Both helm stations feature electronic compass, depth sounder, log, and autopilot integration. VHF radio, intercom systems, and a search light with dual-station remote controls complete
