Shadow is a Dutch-built, steel-hulled 2016 Lynx 70 that is a highly versatile multi-purpose platform which can be used as an activity-filled dayboat or a dedicated watersports support yacht with chase tender. It’s offered by Outer Reef Yacht Sales for $2,141,190.

With its large underdeck toy storage area, Shadow offers a huge array of watersports, from wakesurfing and wingfoiling to sailing and scuba diving. Once the Mastercraft and Jet-Skis are launched, the large TV, sound system, sun loungers and seating, all of which can be covered by an awning, make her fully-teaked deck an excellent area for relaxation or entertainment in between activities.

As well as the almost new Mastercraft NXT20, Shadow also has an almost new Axopar 37 chase tender. Whilst the Mastercraft allows the possibility to wakesurf and wakeboard on big competition level wake, the Axopar 37 is known for its excellent handling and layout. It is perfect for transporting guests quickly and comfortably to and from shore, or exploring the coastline for secluded beaches and shallow bays. With the capability to carry paddleboards, seabobs or e-foils, you can explore even further, or simply enjoy the sun from her two sunpads.

Shadow’s owner and captain have been extremely proactive on maintenance, as shown by its extensive recent works and maintenance list. According to the brokers at Outer Reef Yacht Sales, the vessel presents in excellent condition is ready to go as it sits today. Shadow is currently registered as Commercial under the Cayman flag, as is her Axopar chase tender, so it could accompany a mothership on charter, or charter on a standalone basis.

Outer Reef Yachts—based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and known for building go-anywhere yachts that owner-operators can run with or without crew—has announced a strategic merger with the Dutch shipyard Lynx Yachts.

The merger is expected to help Outer Reef grow its presence in Europe and worldwide. Plans are for an expanded Outer Reef product line, with the Lynx build management team being integrated into the Outer Reef team.

“Expanding our presence in the Netherlands and integrating the highly regarded Lynx Yachts management team into our operations marks a significant milestone for Outer Reef Yachts,” Jeff Druek, CEO of Outer Reef Yachts, stated in a press release. “This partnership aligns perfectly with our commitment to innovation and quality, enabling us to meet the growing demand for adventure yachting across Europe, the United States, Australia and beyond.”

According to the team at Outer Reef, the merger followed a year-long evaluation of European shipyard options, assessing procedures and methodologies. This process included on-site visits to yards across Europe, including Turkish and Dutch facilities.

Under this new alliance, the European shipyard will operate as Outer Reef Yachts – Netherlands.

The first yacht, currently under construction at this facility, will be the Outer Reef Yachts Adventure 780, which is scheduled to launch in February. This vessel will mark the beginning of a new chapter for Outer Reef, as the shipyard embarks on the construction of a range of models from 78 to 141 feet length overall.  

How long has Outer Reef Yachts been in business? Since 1996. Prior to that, Druek worked in the commercial fishing industry on Long Island, New York; served in the U.S. Merchant Marines; and started a custom home-building company that grew to employ 115 people. In 1996, he decided to build a 60-foot yacht. Its quality led to numerous purchase offers, and the experience inspired him to become a professional boatbuilder.
