2016 Fairline Targa 62 GT: A Refined Sports Cruiser with Diesel Power and Sophisticated Accommodations
Overview
The 2016 Fairline Targa 62 GT represents a commanding presence in the modern sports cruiser category. At 63.58 feet in length with a 16.5-foot beam, this British-built motor yacht combines striking exterior styling with a thoughtfully appointed interior designed for both cruising comfort and entertaining. Powered by twin Man 1200 diesel engines with only 528 hours of operation, this vessel has been meticulously maintained since its delivery by the current brokerage. The dramatic price reduction reflects a genuine opportunity to acquire a well-preserved yacht in the 60-foot class with proven engineering and established residual value in today's market. The Targa 62 GT's design philosophy centers on creating an open, sociable deck experience paired with sophisticated below-deck accommodations. The hull employs a deep V-shaped form with 17-degree deadrise aft, a construction approach that supports stable ride quality in moderate sea states while maintaining the shallow 4.25-foot draft characteristic of semi-tunnel propeller design. This configuration allows the powerful diesel engines to sit further aft, improving weight distribution and reducing shaft angles for better efficiency and reduced vibration transmission to the hull.
Hull Design and Construction
Fairline's construction methodology on the Targa 62 GT emphasizes durability and structural integrity. The hull is hand-laid fiberglass with unidirectional, biaxial, and woven rovings, techniques that distribute loads and resist flexing over extended use. The deck incorporates polyurethane foam cores that provide high strength while offering thermal insulation—a practical feature for maintaining interior comfort across varying climates and seasons. The hull-to-deck joint is tapped and bonded rather than simply bolted, a detail that reduces water infiltration potential and improves longevity. Integrally molded engine bearers distribute propulsion loads directly through the hull structure, eliminating the need for aftermarket engine beds that can introduce noise and vibration. The semi-tunnel propeller design is particularly noteworthy: by recessing the propellers, the shafts require less angle to reach the propellers, reducing stress on shaft seals and bearings while improving fuel efficiency. Manganese bronze P-brackets and contra-rotating propellers further minimize vibration and improve directional stability. Antifouling protection is applied to the underwater hull surfaces, standard practice for yachts that spend extended periods in salt water. A bow thruster provides additional maneuvering capability in confined spaces, a practical feature for cruising in crowded anchorages or narrow channels. The full-length molded spray deflectors keep water off the side decks during rough-water operation, protecting both crew safety and deck equipment.
Deck Layout and Cockpit Design
The Targa 62 GT's open cockpit is the focal point of the exterior design. A J-shaped seating and dining arrangement provides sociable seating for guests while maintaining clear sightlines to the helm. The arrangement flows naturally from the companionway, creating an intuitive layout for entertaining or casual cruising. Forward of the seating area sits a luxuriously large sunpad, offering a dedicated space for relaxation or sunbathing while underway. The bathing platform represents a significant feature for warm-water cruising and coastal exploration. Fairline equipped this model with a hydraulic hi-lo system, allowing the platform to be lowered to water level for easy swimming access or raised fully when not in use—a practical addition that improves safety and reduces drag when cruising. The platform is laid in teak, a traditional marine material that provides attractive aesthetics and natural grip when wet. A transom shower with hot and cold water service supports rinsing off after water activities. The teak cockpit floor is self-draining, directing water toward scuppers rather than allowing pooling. An aft cockpit hood with clear panels and a zipped doorway provides weather protection while maintaining visual connection to the open water. Overhead lighting illuminates the cockpit during evening entertaining or night cruising. A teak dining table offers a formal setting for meals, while stowage lockers beneath seating provide space for fenders, mooring lines, and deck equipment. Access to the side decks is clear and unobstructed, supporting crew movement and line handling during maneuvering. The foredeck incorporates a recessed self-draining area designed to accommodate sun cushions, allowing guests to lounge forward without creating water management issues. An electric anchor winch with remote controls and calibrated anchor chain simplifies anchoring procedures. Stainless steel cleats, fairleads, handrails, and a pulpit provide secure attachment points and handhold protection. Feature windows with opening portholes allow natural ventilation in the accommodations below.
Helm Station and Navigation Electronics
The helm position reflects a contemporary approach to yacht command. Twin bench seating provides comfortable positioning for the skipper and a companion, with an adjustable and tilt steering wheel that accommodates different operator preferences. The single-lever electronic throttle and gear controls for both engines simplify power management and reduce fatigue during extended cruising. Full engine instrumentation—including tachometers, temperature gauges, hour meters, and audible alarms—provides real-time feedback on engine condition and performance. The Garmin electronics suite represents a significant upgrade for navigation and situational awareness. A 12-inch Garmin GPS chartplotter display provides high-resolution mapping, route planning, and waypoint navigation. The Garmin autopilot system with color display automates steering, reducing workload during long-distance cruising. A Garmin digital multi-function instrument system consolidates engine data, fuel consumption, water temperature, and other operational parameters into a unified interface. The Garmin VHF marine radio provides communication capability with other vessels and shore stations. A high-speed magnetic compass offers traditional backup navigation independent of electronic systems. A chart table with dedicated lighting supports paper chart work and voyage planning. Remote searchlight controls allow the operator to illuminate distant objects or navigate dark anchorages. Bow thruster controls, trim tab controls, and anchor winch controls are all positioned within easy reach of the helm. Bilge pump switches with integral warning lights and audible alarms provide immediate feedback on any water ingress or system malfunction.
Engine Power and Electrical Systems
Twin Man 1200 diesel engines deliver substantial propulsive power, a configuration that supports both cruising efficiency and on-demand performance. At 528 hours of total operation, these engines remain well within their service life, suggesting the vessel has been used for extended cruising rather than intensive charter or commercial service. Diesel engines are known for longevity and fuel efficiency, particularly in marine applications where they operate at steady, moderate RPM rather than the high-speed cycling typical of automotive use. Aerodynamically designed engine air intakes support efficient combustion and reduce air restriction. Dripless shaft seals minimize oil leakage and environmental impact. Automatic bilge pumps in the forward bilge, engine bay, and rudder bay provide continuous water management, with manual override capability for emergency situations. An automatic engine bay fire extinguisher system offers passive safety protection. Electric trim tabs with cathodic protection optimize hull attitude and reduce drag across varying load and sea conditions. The electrical system reflects the complexity of a modern motor yacht. An Onan 9.5kW generator provides 240V shore-power-equivalent electricity when the yacht is away from the dock, supporting air conditioning, galley appliances, water heating, and entertainment systems. Multiple battery banks—four heavy-duty domestic batteries, two dedicated to port engine starting, and two dedicated to starboard engine starting—ensure reliable engine starts and extended auxiliary power capability. An emergency battery coupling system permits cross-starting if one engine's battery bank becomes depleted. A 240V isolation transformer allows safe operation of shore-powered equipment from generator or shore power. All circuits are protected by heavy-duty circuit breakers with a main electrical load control panel for centralized management. Power points throughout the yacht are fed from either shore power or the generator, supporting laptop charging, device connectivity, and portable equipment operation. A 12V voltage dropper supplies lower-voltage circuits while protecting sensitive equipment from voltage spikes.
Accommodations: Master Stateroom and En-Suite
The master stateroom occupies the forward section of the yacht, providing full-height standing headroom and an oversized double bed positioned to maximize comfort and views through feature windows with opening portholes. The cabin is appointed with an aluminum venetian blind system for light and privacy control. Twin bedside tables with reading lights flank the bed, supporting the practical needs of overnight cruising. A chaise longue provides additional seating or lounging space within the cabin. A dressing table with drawers and two wardrobes with mirrored doors offer substantial storage for extended cruises. Under-bed storage areas with large drawers maximize use of available space. Overhead lockers provide additional stowage. The cabin is finished with
