Bad Company: The 144-Foot Sportfish Built to Chase Big Game

Most 144-foot yachts are built around swimming pools, beach clubs and cocktail hours. Bad Company has a different agenda. Built by Trinity Yachts in 1998, this aluminum superyacht combines the accommodations of a luxury motor yacht with the working attitude of a serious offshore fishing machine. Now offered for $8.9 million, it's a rare example of a sportfishing yacht operating on a genuinely global scale.

Originally built at a shorter length and subsequently extended to 144 feet, Bad Company features a substantial fishing cockpit designed for offshore action. The yacht has reportedly traveled through the Pacific, Atlantic, Mediterranean and Red Sea, crossing major canals and serving as a mothership for extended fishing expeditions. It's a résumé that reads more like an expedition vessel than a conventional superyacht.

A major refit in 2018 brought updated mechanical systems and newer MTU diesel engines. The yacht reportedly reaches speeds of up to 26 knots, while five guest cabins provide accommodations for extended trips. The combination of long-range cruising capability, serious fishing facilities and superyacht-level comfort makes Bad Company an unusual proposition, even in the custom yacht market.

Nearly three decades after her original launch, Bad Company remains a compelling reminder that some of the most interesting yachts weren't designed simply to sit at anchor. This one was built to go places, find fish and stay out there.
