Layout and Design
WALK-THROUGH DESCRIPTION:
Starting at the bow, you’ll find the exquisitely detailed and well-appointed master cabin, Complimenting the teak and holly floorboards, which run the length of the yacht, the cabin is finished entirely in mahogany. A queen bed is framed by 2 bookshelves and Ocean reading lights. Near the foot of the bed you’ll find a small settee flanking each side. An abundance of storage is provided by 6 overhead lockers, 2 6-drawer dressers, 2 large cedar-lined hanging lockers. More space is provided by under-berth storage. Under mount lighting, 2 Hella fans, temperature controls, Alpine speakers and volume controls round out the cabin to create a comfortable and luxurious environment.
Adjacent to the master cabin is the most forward of the 2 heads. A full stand-up shower, Corian counters and storage lockers create the spacious and light environment. The Asko Washing Machine is also located in the head.
Moving aft, the first of 2 guest cabins sits to starboard. Surrounded in rich mahogany, the cabin features a single upper bunk and a 1.5 lower bunk and also includes and en suite vanity and sink. Ample storage, speakers, fans and reading lights provide additional comfort.
Aft of the guest cabin is the very open and airy salon. To port are two captains chairs, upholstered in rich ultrasuede. A concealed icemaker sits between the two chairs to create a lovely mahogany cocktail or office table. Bookshelves sit in the bulkhead behind them. To starboard you’ll find a pilot berth outboard of the large horseshoe-shaped settee. A gorgeous custom mahogany table with inlaid wood detail and extension leaf easily accommodates 8-10 people. The nav station, to port, features all the controls and monitors needed to safely and efficiently manage the yacht’s functions.

Walking aft, the large galley is set to starboard. Even the most discerning cook will appreciate the appointments and space-creating design. Luxurious granite countertops surround the Force 10 4-burner stove, GE Profile Spacemaker microwave, and stainless double basin sink. The stand-up refrigerator and freezer and in-floor freezer provide plenty of food storage space. An abundance of lockers provide a very large volume of space for additional storage. Being part of the main salon area adds a sense of room without isolating the cook from the conversation.
To port, slightly aft, is the second guest cabin with an upper and lower single berth, climate controls, Ocean reading lamps, storage space. Adjacent is the second head with white Corian countertops, Vaccuflush head and shower.
