Owner Experience Review
Owners and brokers consistently describe the Marquis 720fromMarquisas a capable family cruiser with charter-friendly flexibility. Extended coastal itineraries are a common use case thanks to frequently cited large fuel and water capacities, while the main-deck galley adjacent to the salon supports relaxed weekend entertaining. The enclosed, air-conditioned 360° flybridge lounge earns praise for all‑weather guest comfort, and layouts offering 3–4 ensuite cabins include a full‑beam midship master with double sinks and even a tub in some configurations. Interior commentary repeatedly notes high-end finishes such as handmade leather, oak or cherry joinery, and granite or marble accents.
On the water, confident handling is a recurrent theme in owner and broker feedback, with published figures indicating an efficient ~25‑knot cruise and about 29 knots at the top. Stable seakeeping is reported, and many recommend options like a Seakeeper, bow and stern thrusters, and trim tabs to further enhance comfort and tight‑quarters control. Practical touches include engine-room access via a transom/aft‑deck door and an illuminated catwalk, though the yacht’s twin high‑power diesels, multi‑zone A/C, generators, and related systems imply higher routine service costs than smaller boats. The owner’s manual underscores frequent checks (bilge pumps/blowers, zinc anodes, generator ventilation, and gelcoat care). Public court records also note a hull‑specific buyer/delivery dispute involving a Marquis 720, so prospective buyers typically approach surveys and documentation with added diligence.
Pros and Cons
- Confident handling with a ~25‑knot cruise and ~29‑knot top is widely cited by owners and testers.
- Enclosed, air‑conditioned 360° flybridge lounge enables comfortable, all‑weather entertaining.
- Full‑beam midship master and 3–4 cabin ensuite layouts suit family cruising and charter versatility.
- Complex systems (diesels, multi‑zone A/C, generators, stabilization) drive higher routine service costs.
- Optimal comfort and tight‑quarters maneuvering often rely on optional Seakeeper and bow/stern thrusters.
- A court‑documented hull‑specific delivery dispute suggests thorough pre‑purchase surveys and paperwork review.
