Boarding LADY CAROLINE from the aft end has two options.  From a floating dock one can step aboard the large fixed swim platform and up the port or starboard stairs to the Aft Deck.  From a fixed dock one boards via a Marquipt Tide Ride ladder via port or starboard hinged boarding gates.

The Aft Deck, like the swim platform and steps, has teak decking which continues forward around the bow.  The Aft Deck is fully protected by a full overhang custom lengthened at time of construction.  Centerline aft is a curved upholstered seat to seat six.  Twin varnished tables lie in front of the seat.  Two deck chairs complete the seating group.  To port are comfortable teak stairs to the Flybridge.  A 20” flip down TV is also to port.  Built into the starboard pylaster is a drink refrigerator.  Center opening doors lead into the large Salon.

The Salon has large side windows for ample ambient lighting.  A U shaped sectional sofa is to port.  Lying in front of the sofa is a glass coffee table with two barrel chairs facing the sofa.  To starboard is an attractive wood cabinet with a popup 42” TV and the yacht’s stereo gear.

Next forward is a custom wood dining table with six upholstered chairs.  A sliding pocket door to port closes off the Galley.  Having the Country Kitchen arrangement LADY CAROLINE offers a huge eat in Galley arrangement that has an abundance of natural light from the forward curved windows.

Most of the Galley equipment is on the portside but a walk behind bar area the curved seating forward to seat six or more makes the area look huge!

Going forward from the Salon on the starboard side is a large Day Head, steps to the Pilothouse, a side entry door, an entrance into the Country Kitchen and steps to the Midship Cabins with separate steps to the Forward VIP Cabins.

The Forward VIP has a centerline king size berth, storage cabinets to port and starboard and a private Head with a stall shower.

From the Country Kitchen going aft to below is a Companionway leading to the remainder of the yacht’s staterooms.

Forward is a queen size stateroom with an en suite Head and stall shower.

Aft from the centerline Companionway is the huge Master Cabin.  A king size berth is on centerline.  Aft to port and starboard are His and Her Heads with a centerline shared shower.  The Master has twin small settees, a dedicated washer and dryer and a huge walk in closet to starboard.

To port accessed only from the Master is a fourth cabin.  This cabin has a double berth, hanging locker and a drop down TV.  Other uses for this area include a gym, office or as it is, perfect as a nursery.

Back in the Main Deck Starboard Side Companionway is the four step entrance to the raised Pilothouse.  The Pilothouse has the signature curved glass windshield with a centerline helm and a full compliment of electronics.  Twin helm seats offer great visibility.  Aft to port and up two steps for a great view is a three person settee and small high gloss table.

Centerline are steps to the Flybridge accessed via a sliding door.

On the Flybridge the full helm is to port.  Twin helm seats port and two more starboard allow the captain plenty of company.  Next aft on both the port and starboard side are twin L shaped lounges with teak tables and teak deck chairs.  Aft to port is a full walk behind bar with a drop down TV and three barstools.  Opposite is a large hot tub built into fiberglass cabinetry. 

Next aft is a built in stainless steel grill and Besenzoni davit.

Further aft to port are the steps to the Aft Deck and two chaise lounges forward of the Boat Deck area.  The entire aft Flybridge area is enclosed with hoop rails. 

The Crew Area is accessed by either a portside Companionway or the centerline door in the transom.

Aft to port is private Captain’s Cabin with a double bed, a desk and an en suite head and shower. 

Aft to starboard is a private Crew Cabin with twin upper lower bunks and a private head with shower.

Also in this area is a Crew Galley, a dinette, a washer dryer and the centerline access to the large Engine Room.

The Salon is entered via twin automatic stainless steel entry doors on centerline.  Sheer drapes cover the door as needed.

Immediately to starboard is a two door hanging locker for jackets, etc.  Also within the locker is a Yamaha AM/FM/AV receiver, a Yamaha five disc CD/DVD player, an HD Direct TV receiver and DVR and the Intellian antenna control unit as well as a hidden subwoofer.

Next forward is a stand alone four door curved front TV cabinet with a popup 42” Samsung 1080P Smart TV.

To port upon entry is a two door curved storage cabinet with a dedicated art niche.

Next forward is a large U shaped section sofa to seat five to six people comfortably.  Lying in front of the sofa is a clear glass coffee table on acrylic base.

Two upholstered chairs facing the sofa complete the seating group. 

Large side windows with electric Roman shades with LED rope lights in the valance offer plenty of ambient lighting.  Overhead are 23 halogen mini spots, four built in speakers and an attractive ceiling detail that has an LED backlit panel. 

The sole of this area is fully carpeted and includes custom Sound Down sound dampening material.

Contiguous to the open Salon and separated only by a small granite topped room divider behind the sofa is the Dining Salon.

Centerline is a custom wood table and six leather arm chairs.  A full table pad protects the table as needed.

Port and starboard are granite topped four door storage cabinets for dining accessories.  Small slim storage cabinets are fore and aft.  An attractive curved wood wall forward with four special lights for the centered artwork allows for a clean and simple look.

The large house side windows (six total each side) continue forward to this area as does the ceiling detail and carpet.  Eleven additional halogen lights plus eight dedicated to the dining table are mounted into the padded ceiling panels.

With the one continuous ceiling detail and floor covering the design flows from one area to another easily achieving the owner’s desire for an open layout.

The Galley of LADY CAROLINE is immense in size and very complete in inventory!  Starting from the Salon, the portside entry to the Galley is via a sliding pocket door with five panels of obscured glass.  The sole is bamboo planks.

Immediately to starboard upon entry is a five drawer pullout pantry followed by appliances to both port and starboard.  To port is a Pantograph side deck entry door and the two round signature Johnson fixed port lights surrounded by granite that matches the countertop.

Double doors aft lead to the Master.  A single door the Midship VIP and wall panels mimicking the doors are on the remainder of the bulkheads.

Forward from the Companionway is the Midship VIP.  A full king size berth lies off the outboard bulkhead.  Either side of the berth are single door nightstands with swing arm reading lights above.  There are four drawers under the berth with additional storage under the lift up mattress.

The wall behind the berth serves as a padded headboard.

Above is a four panel sliding Soji screen covering two large oval portholes, one of which opens for ventilation.  The bulkheads are padded ostrich embossed vinyl with a 22” Sharp LCD TV at the foot of the berth.

Because of the customized cabin layout the Owner Cabin has a walk in locker that measures 11’ x 5’, in other words, huge.  The walls are cedar and painted lacquer.  There is a dedicated air handler and a hidden safe.  Also a second Miele stainless steel washer and dryer are located within the locker all behind a solid wood door.

The His and Her Heads are nearly identical, differing only by the number of portholes and the fact that one has a toilet and one a bidet.

Each has a slab marble sole that matches the countertop.  Each has four wood doors in the vanity with an above countertop vessel sink.  Each has four beveled mirror cabinets with the center accessing opening porthole(s).  The overheads are mirrored with five halogen mini spots, an AC vent and an exhaust fan.  The starboard has a Head Hunter toilet, the port a bidet.

Drains in all four corners assure no puddling!  The overhead is mirrored and has two exhaust fan/light combos.

The results speak for themselves!  Designing a nice boat is one thing, keeping it in pristine condition for eight plus years is another.

A close inspection of LADY CAROLINE will reveal a reliable, spacious motoryacht with excellent accommodations and the utmost of care by her knowledgeable and caring crew.
