Overview

Crafted with unwavering attention to strength and integrity, the yacht’s general construction features a solid, hand‑laminated fiberglass hull protected by an epoxy barrier coat, with a hand‑laminated fiberglass deck and superstructure securely bonded and mechanically fastened to the hull. Double laminations fortify the chine, keel, and running hardware locations, while uni and bi‑directional FRP laminates are applied per schedule. Four full‑length longitudinal engine stringers and multiple athwartships frames deliver exceptional hull stiffness, complemented by 3/4‑inch structural bulkheads, padded at the hull and fully bonded. A raised double chine enhances performance, molded FRP upper and lower rub rails carry a heavy stainless steel cap, and top‑grade #316 stainless steel exterior and deck hardware underline durability. Reichold Hydrex vinylester resin is employed throughout, underwater exhaust reduces noise and exhaust signature, and vacuum‑bagging refines the lamination process for optimal strength‑to‑weight.

On deck, the exterior is engineered for effortless movement and confident handling. A wide FRP swim step with a stainless steel swim ladder welcomes you aboard, with port, starboard, and transom boarding doors providing versatile access. Contrasting non‑glare, non‑skid decks ensure secure footing, and eleven Manship stainless steel portlights, rebedded in 2025, bathe the interior in natural light. In the cockpit, precise control meets thoughtful utility with hydraulic steering and a rudder angle indicator, while a stainless steel ladder with FRP steps rises to the boat deck beneath a Manship hatch. Abundant storage includes a large lazarette locker supported by gas‑assist shocks, deck lockers with molded inner liners and drains to port and starboard, and a convenient cabinet with a covered sink. Hot and cold freshwater service is available at a single‑lever faucet and at a hot and cold freshwater shower enclosed within a molded FRP cabinet. A dedicated rudder shelf and an elegant oval teak caprail complete this purposeful space.

Forward, the foredeck hosts ample storage lockers and an FRP anchor platform with a stainless steel roller and chock supporting a stainless steel CQR anchor. The ground tackle runs to 300 feet of 3/8‑inch high‑test chain led deep to the bilge, with a dedicated rope locker for rode management. The Maxwell hydraulic windlass, with dual direction, three‑station control, chain stopper, and anchor roller, assures effortless anchoring, while a stainless steel bow pulpit and 1 1/4‑inch safety railings enhance security. One Manship stainless steel deck hatch is painted to match the gelcoat for a seamless finish. Above, the flybridge invites open‑air command beneath a folding bimini, with a helm console featuring full throttle instrumentation and Hynautic hydraulic steering finished with a stainless steel “destroyer”‑type wheel. Two Pompanette AS21 helm chairs with custom piping, a generous seating and dining settee with storage below and teak grates, and two tables capped in Corian create a convivial setting. A molded FRP radar arch and a Danforth compass round out this elevated helm. On the boat deck, a low‑profile Brower 1,000‑pound davit services a fourteen‑foot Highfield tender with 60 HP Yamaha, new in 2022, while a plexiglass hatch eases access to the cockpit ladder. Stainless steel safety railings in 1 1/4‑inch diameter and molded‑in deck scuppers that drain to the waterline confirm the yacht’s seamanlike detailing.

Inside, the interior exudes timeless warmth and yacht‑grade craftsmanship with furniture‑quality, hand‑rubbed satin Burmese teak cabinetry, bulkheads, and wall surfaces. Cedar‑lined hanging lockers preserve wardrobe freshness, push‑to‑release latches secure doors and drawers, and a vinyl headliner flows throughout, with durable Formica appointed in the heads. Tempered, tinted window glass affords privacy and protection, while plush carpeting with padding spans the accommodation areas, except in the galley and pilothouse where teak and holly soles offer classic resilience. Quality AC and DC lighting is thoughtfully layered with halogen overhead fixtures and dimmer switches, and premium hardware is fitted to interior doors, cabinets, and all opening windows and doors. The pilothouse is a command center of clarity and comfort, with a helm console carrying complete engine instrumentation, engine warning lights augmenting the gauges, and a dimmer switch for instrument lighting. Hydraulic steering with a wood destroyer‑type wheel pairs with an indicator panel showing system readiness, and two Pompanette Platinum Series helm chairs face a comprehensive suite of AC/DC distribution panels and generator controls. A seating and dining settee with upholstered cushions complements a built‑in L‑shaped seat and a teak hi‑lo table that converts to a berth. Sliding doors open to the side decks to port and starboard, a stairway rises to the flybridge beneath a stainless steel Manship cedar hatch, and another stairway leads forward to the stateroom. Custom fabric valances soften the space, an overhead hatch brings in breeze and light, a Danforth compass sits at the ready, a Sub‑Zero refrigerator adds convenience, and two overhead teak handrails lend both utility and style.

The salon is designed for gracious living with built‑in TV cabinetry in the starboard aft corner, custom fabric valances, and refined two‑inch wood blinds framing the view. A generous U‑settee with lift‑top storage converts to an additional berth, accompanied by two custom chairs new in 2026 and a hi‑lo solid teak table on a crank base for effortless reconfiguration. Architectural details include soffits with LED lighting, elegant lambrequins at the window tops and sides, tasteful crown molding, and a sturdy overhead teak handrail. The galley is both fresh and functional with new, updated countertops installed in 2025 and a new stainless steel sink, a three‑burner glass cooktop, and a microwave/convection oven. Organization comes easy with white Formica‑lined drawers and cabinets, slide‑out shelves in both cabinets and pantry, and premium cold storage via a Sub‑Zero under‑counter refrigerator and a Sub‑Zero under‑counter freezer. An exhaust fan, disposal, stacked washer/dryer, and a Broan trash compactor complete this thoughtful culinary workspace. In the heads, new updated countertops are paired with porcelain sinks, Tecma toilets, Sealand sanitary hoses, and a Sealand monitor panel for confidence underway. White Formica‑lined drawers and cabinets, effective ventilation blowers, a teak and holly sole in the guest cabin, and a custom tile floor in the master cabin emphasize both function and finish. The staterooms offer restful refinement with custom innerspring mattresses in the master and guest quarters, drawer and cabinet interiors finished in white Formica, and cedar‑lined hanging lockers with automatic lights. The master stateroom enjoys soffits with LED lighting, and the forward berth is hinged for practical access.

Systems and tankage have been engineered for reliability and ease of service. Two FRP freshwater tanks reside in the lazarette, with one molded FRP freshwater tank under the forward sole and one molded FRP 70‑gallon holding tank beneath the forward sole. Three aluminum fuel tanks in the engine room are epoxy‑painted and insulated, with tank faces protected by aluminum‑clad hardboard. A Hart Tank Tender monitors levels, and all tanks include clean‑outs and shutoff valves. Supply lines draw from aft at the lowest tank corners, stainless steel fuel supply manifolds incorporate sight gauges, and color‑coded copper fuel supply tubing simplifies inspection. A saltwater washdown system complements an HRO Watermaker, while dual Racor freshwater filters polish the potable supply. Bronze sea cocks are fitted on all through‑hull fittings, and bronze sea strainers serve both the engines and generator. Five Rule 1500 bilge pumps with float switches, one Whale Gusher hand bilge pump, two Rule 800 shower sump pumps, three bronze gate valves at watertight bulkheads, and one bilge water alarm provide comprehensive dewatering capability. Freshwater washdown points are thoughtfully located at the fore and aft decks, in the engine room, and in the cockpit.

The electrical architecture is equally robust, featuring 12 kW Northern Lights generators with 1125 hours, and integrated 12 VDC, 110 VAC, and 220 VAC systems. Inverters and chargers support seamless power management, including a smart charger for all batteries, which are secured in covered FRP boxes. Shore connectivity includes two 50‑amp connectors on the port side and transom, and one telephone/CATV connector to port, while a Glendinning Cablemaster #CM‑7/12V in the starboard lazarette manages a 50‑foot cord. A five‑point switch controls the 110 VDC panel. Entertainment and connectivity are prepped with TV coax runs to the salon, V‑berth, and master stateroom, along with speaker wiring throughout. All wiring is color‑coded, complete AC/DC circuit breaker panels are installed, and dedicated wiring is in place for the inverter system. New LED Aqua Signal navigation lights enhance visibility, supported by eight 12 VDC exterior overhead deck lights, two 12 VDC cockpit floodlights, nine exterior safety lights at deck level, and six 110 VAC engine room lights, while refined interior lighting elevates the ambiance.

Navigation and communications are comprehensively equipped. In the pilothouse, Furuno NavNet integrates with two computer screens at the dash to operate both Furuno and onboard computer systems, while a Simrad AP‑20 autopilot, Furuno radar, and B&G Network Wind instrumentation deliver precise situational awareness. An ACR remote spotlight control, Maxwell anchor remote, rudder angle indicator, Bennett trim tab controls, Icom M602 VHF, and Xantrex inverter control enhance command confidence. On the flybridge, a Simrad AP‑20 autopilot, Furuno NavNet, Icom M602 VHF, Maxwell windlass control, rudder angle indicator, and Bennett trim tab controls mirror this capability for consistent operation at either helm.

Mechanical systems are specified for blue‑water assurance and quiet comfort. A Wesmar stabilizer and bow thruster system anchors the yacht’s superb handling, while 57,000 BTU CruisAir air conditioning maintains an ideal climate. A Maxwell windlass handles anchoring duties, and two dual water/gas separators service the generator exhaust for clean, quiet operation. Engine room access is provided from both the cockpit and salon hatches, and the machinery space is fully insulated with high‑density foam and an aluminum barrier shield. Two 4‑inch engine room blowers with PVC ducting promote airflow, and bilges are finished in smooth polyester paint for easy maintenance. Main engines are mounted on heavy stainless steel beds over molded FRP drip pans, with fuel polishing delivered by two dual Racor 1000 MA fuel filters for each engine. Engine room hatch dog downs secure the space, while a stainless steel fuel manifold system and FRP water tanks affirm reliability. Aquamet #22 stainless steel propeller shafts drive through quality bronze V and intermediate struts with cutlass bearings to stainless steel hydrodynamic rudder blades. Bennett 12‑by‑54‑inch trim tabs with two‑station control fine‑tune the ride, and an emergency tiller stands ready. A stacked washer/dryer adds further long‑range convenience.

Completing the specification, the yacht presents a sport deck with stainless steel U‑rails, three two‑arm parallel windshield wipers, and one windshield wash system for clear sightlines. A stern flagstaff and socket add a classic flourish, while four Polyform fenders and five braided dock lines in good condition ensure secure mooring. This is a yacht conceived for confident passagemaking and gracious living, thoroughly equipped and meticulously finished to deliver enduring quality on every voyage.
