New Designs Unveiled

By Burger Yacht

Following Restructuring

At one time the premiere builder of custom aluminum motoryachts,

Burger Yachts Company is now un- veiling a number of new designs and a new after-sales service follow- ing a major restructuring.

Burger was able to establish a

Burger Sales and Service Company through an alliance with the

Rybovich Spencer Group. The new alliance will provide Burger with a strong presence in the South Florida area. The well-equipped facilities at West Palm Beach will service the existing fleet with finishing and war- ranty work and serve as sales head- quarters. Burger plans to reopen its

Manitowoc, Wise., facility, which will serve as the company's main boat manufacturing site.

Burger plans to exhibit a new 90- foot motoryacht design at the Fort

Lauderdale International Boat

Show. Models of 70-, 80-, and 100- foot designs will also be shown.
