Owner Experience Review
Owners and crews who run the 125 Raised Pilot HousefromHargravehighlight its dual personality: true long-range capability alongside sociable, big-yacht living. Press coverage cites about 8,000 gallons of fuel and roughly a 4,000‑mile range at 8 knots for bluewater passages. On the move, it’s a semi‑displacement hull with a mid‑teens cruise (around 15 knots in testing and low‑to‑mid‑teens figures noted in listings), and about 19 knots recorded on a published test. An owner comment points to a “14‑knot cruise that wallows a bit,” making Naiad fin stabilizers and correct setup/servicing important; owners also advise monitoring added topside weight and window/fitment integrity, as these can influence motion.
Onboard, volume is the recurring theme. Reports note 7'6"–7'8" headroom, about 5,000 square feet of interior, and four king staterooms, complemented by crew spaces that are “above the norm” for the size: three crew cabins with en‑suite heads, dual crew access, and an expanded lounge. The open, social galley/salon and the expansive flybridge—with hardtop, multiple bars, and a spa tub—have been used to host 30–40 guests at events, which aligns with its positioning for private entertaining or charter.
Maintenance feedback is pragmatic. Forum posts flag salon/window leaks that may require rebedding and variable exterior stainless quality that some owners have upgraded. A documented 2013 example underscores the scale of periodic work—exhaust risers renewed (2021/2023), steering rams and hydraulic hoses serviced (2023), dripless shaft housings/seals replaced (2023), and Naiad stabilizer fins rebuilt (2023). With twin Cat C32s, 45 kW gensets, and the Naiad system in the machinery mix, owners plan for professional upkeep and the associated service costs.
