Swim platform

A wide integral fiberglass swim platform is sheathed in teak, setting a warm and surefooted tone at the waterline. Generous molded steps, three to port and three to starboard, rise to the aft deck with polished stainless steel handrails for confident passage. Shore services are neatly handled by twin 100-amp Cablemaster systems housed to starboard in a locker, complemented by a Hubbell telephone and television inlet discreetly placed in the transom locker. Comfort and practicality are immediate, with a freshwater shower and deck washdown to starboard, waste pump-out in the starboard locker, and two courtesy lights port and starboard to illuminate evening returns. A portside passerelle deploys for elegant boarding, while coordinated outdoor furniture graces the flybridge, aft deck, and foredeck to create multiple alfresco lounges across the yacht.

Cockpit

Sheltered by a fiberglass overhead with recessed lighting and two stereo speakers, the cockpit pairs a teak-over-fiberglass deck with robust stainless steel rails, stanchions, and matching gates that frame the swim platform to port and starboard. Docking is effortless, with Lofrans warping windlasses and stern bollards mirrored port and starboard. A graceful curved aft bench, refitted with new cushions in 2011, faces a handsome teak dual-pedestal table forward, easily joined by deck chairs for lingering meals. A sliding stainless steel door glides forward into the salon, while passerelle controls are neatly integrated into the port handrail at the dinette, keeping operation intuitive and unobtrusive.

Flybridge

Teak overlays the fiberglass deck beneath a retractable canvas top, where a tinted windscreen in a stainless steel frame wraps a commanding helm. The Azimut steering wheel fronts a Zenith compass, Raymarine VHF radio, Raytheon ST6002 autopilot, ZF electronic clutch and throttle controls, two Caterpillar digital engine displays, an American bow and stern thruster control panel, and an ITT Jabsco searchlight control panel with intercom switches. Newly added navigation power comes from two 12" Garmin GPSMAP multi-function displays and two Garmin data instruments. Storage compartments line port, while a double bench-style helm chair to starboard conceals storage and secures under a fitted cover. A large sun pad sprawls port of the helm, and just aft, a well-appointed wet bar brings a sink with hot and cold faucet, an Isotherm refrigerator, and a Fusion stereo. The radar arch completes the scene with recessed lights, four JL Audio stereo speakers and a subwoofer, two remote-operated searchlights, a mast carrying the anchor light, forward navigation light, and stern light, and a VHF antenna.

Flybridge deck

The flybridge deck continues the theme of teak over fiberglass underfoot, flowing aft to a molded non-skid section for secure footing. Access is effortless via the stairwell down to the aft deck, and safety is underscored by two 24" life rings positioned port and starboard and stainless steel railings aft. Tender and toy handling is simple with an Opacmare davit, while open-air entertaining is elevated by a Lynx stainless steel barbecue grill. Two aft deck drains manage runoff to keep the area dry and ready for use.

Bow

Forward, a teak-over-fiberglass deck is guarded by stainless steel bow rails and stanchions, with a flagstaff proudly at the stem. Heavy-duty stainless steel bow bollards with hawse eyes mirror port and starboard, while an engineered stainless anchor chute and windlass platform support a Lofrans anchor windlass feeding an approximately 250-lb Fjord anchor on approximately 300' of chain. Dual hatches port and starboard lead forward to the chain locker, with an additional hatch accessing the Bosun’s locker in the forward superstructure. Practicality continues with deck courtesy lights, port and starboard lockers in the trunk cabin, and a freshwater shower connection with a hot/cold faucet in the starboard locker. Centerline, a sun lounge with cushions invites relaxation beneath a sun shield for the pilothouse windows. A portside door opens directly to the galley, while spring cleats and bollards, fuel fills, and water fills are duplicated port and starboard. Movement and readiness are assured with an entrance to the crew companionway starboard aft, navigation lights port and starboard, recessed lights in the overhang—four to port and four to starboard—two windshield wipers, and two fire stations: one in a starboard aft side deck locker and another in the chain locker, each carrying 20 m of 50 mm hose.

Salon

Entry from the aft deck is through sliding doors dressed with drapes, revealing a salon grounded by a cherry sole and crowned by a vinyl overhead with a cherry recess. A recessed soffit with rope lighting and additional recessed overhead lights create a warm, layered glow. To port, a U-shaped leather sofa with abundant storage faces window drop curtains with a complementary drape, while to starboard a leather loveseat balances the conversation. Climate and entertainment are at your fingertips via Cruisair SMX IR air conditioning control, a NuVo stereo amplifier, an Arcam DVD player, and a Samsung flat-panel television that rises smoothly on an electric lift.

Dining

The dining area continues the rich cherry sole beneath a vinyl headliner with recessed lighting and a wood recess, where window drop shades and valance rope lighting frame a glass-topped table with eight chairs. Entertaining is refined by a Sub-Zero wine cooler and a cherry buffet that gracefully delineates the dining space from the salon.

Galley

Entered to starboard forward of the salon, the galley presents a cherry sole under overhead panels with recessed lights and gleaming stainless steel countertops with matching backsplash. Twin stainless steel sinks pair with a single-lever hot/cold faucet, while cold storage is anchored by a Sub-Zero refrigerator. Culinary capability is complete with a Gaggenau five-burner stovetop under a dedicated work light with exhaust fan, a Gaggenau oven, a new Bosch dishwasher, and a General Electric microwave. Thoughtful stowage abounds in built-in cabinets, and service is streamlined by two pass-throughs to the dining salon, each with a tambour door on track and three overhead lights. Climate is tuned via Cruisair SMX IR controls, and a watertight door opens directly onto the starboard side deck.

Day head

Conveniently positioned starboard aft of the galley, the day head features a cherry sole beneath a vinyl overhead with recessed lights. A Tecma toilet and a vanity with a porcelain sink, hot and cold faucet, mirrored face, and storage below provide practical elegance. A headlight with drop shade, together with an exhaust blower, keeps the space bright and fresh.

Lower helm station

The lower helm centers on two 12" Garmin GPSMAP multifunction displays, set beneath a vinyl overhead with dedicated lighting and in front of an electrically controlled bench helm chair. Navigation and control are comprehensive, with a White Star compass, ITT Jabsco searchlight control, an American bow and stern thruster control panel, ZF electronic engine controls, and port and starboard CGT touch screen displays to the engines. Feedback and ride are refined through a TRAC Stabilizer control panel, rudder angle indicator, and a Smart Power Management screen overseeing the central hydraulics. Communications and awareness are enhanced by a KVH Via satellite broadband antenna controller unit, a Came CCTV control panel, a Raymarine Ray 218 VHF radio, and a Raymarine ST6002 autopilot. Comfort and convenience join a portside dinette with curved bench seating, storage, and a wood table, Cruisair SMX IR air conditioning control, a Raymarine ST70 knot log and ST70 depth display, and a Yacht Controller wireless dockside control.

Master stateroom

The master stateroom is hushed and gracious, with a carpeted sole and a vinyl overhead accented by indirect lighting, a custom wood panel, and recessed lights. Overhead soffits carry two focused reading lights at the head of a centerline king berth with integrated storage. Built-in nightstands flank port and starboard, each accompanied by a porthole with a drop shade, while to starboard a vanity with lift-up mirror and storage answers daily ritual. A Panasonic LCD television, telephone jack, walk-in closet, Cruisair SMX IR air conditioning control, and a central vacuum inlet complete this private retreat.

VIP stateroom

The VIP stateroom is serene, with a carpeted sole and vinyl overhead softly lit by indirect lighting. A queen berth is flanked by nightstands to port and starboard, with two swing-arm lamps and focused reading lights set in the soffit above the head of the bed. Natural light comes through outboard deadlights to port and starboard, each dressed with curtains, and hanging lockers on both sides are fitted with their own lights. A telephone jack, a Cruisair SMX IR air conditioning control panel, a Kidde dry chemical fire extinguisher, and a Philips television complete this refined haven.

Entered port aft within the VIP, the head features a cherry sole beneath overhead paneling with three recessed lights. A vanity with a porcelain sink, hot/cold faucet, and ample storage complements a Tecma toilet. An outboard porthole concealed behind a sliding mirrored door adds daylight, while the shower stall encloses water jets, a hot and cold shower head, a grate sole, and an overhead light for comfort and safety.

Crew companionway

The crew companionway connects directly from the swim platform, engine room, and starboard side deck, lined with a vinyl overhead and wall covering. Three steps descend from the swim platform into a practical service area with access to the port steering hydraulic cylinder beneath the dinette. Laundry is handled by a Miele T8013C dryer and a Miele W3033 washer, both replaced in 2018, while a Cruisair air conditioning control panel, cherry paneling and molding, a cherry table, a Sony stereo, an aft dinette, and two stereo speakers create a comfortable break space. An Isotherm refrigerator stands ready for refreshments, and a watertight door opens to the engine room with an emergency escape route also provided. Recessed overhead lights illuminate the entire passage.

Under forward companionway

Beneath the forward companionway, a hold light reveals the TRAC stabilizer control box, the aft-positioned blackwater tank with its blackwater pump, and the graywater system with its pump and an additional gray water tank located aft of the blackwater tank. Two hot water circulating pumps and a high water alarm further attest to the yacht’s meticulous systems engineering.

Port crew's quarters

The port crew cabin is trimmed with a vinyl overhead fitted with three lights and offers two single outboard berths with individual reading lights. An outboard porthole with curtains brings in daylight, while an inboard hanging locker organizes uniforms. Practical access to the port rudder and a shower sump tank with pump under the sole underscore serviceability, and climate is set by a dedicated Cruisair air conditioning control.

Starboard crew's quarters

To starboard, the crew cabin features a durable laminate sole beneath a vinyl overhead with three recessed lights. An outboard upper and lower berth arrangement adds flexibility, with two drawers beneath the lower berth for stowage. An outboard porthole with curtains brightens the space, while an inboard hanging locker keeps gear ready. Forward of the upper berth, an access panel leads to two 30-kg CO2 cylinders. A dedicated Cruisair air conditioning control maintains comfort.

Crew quarters head

Accessible from the crew companionway, the head is finished with a wood grate sole and two recessed lights. A marble countertop with sink sits beneath an outboard mirrored medicine cabinet paired to a porthole, and a Tecma toilet provides reliable service. Ventilation is aided by an exhaust blower, and a 110-volt GFCI outlet in the overhead ensures safe power. The shower features a handheld head on a hose with a mixing valve and wall mount for versatility.

Engine room

The engine room is arranged for performance and service, beginning with a diamond plate deck and anchored by two Kohler 32 kW generators breathing through dedicated exhaust/water separators. Airflow is balanced by two extractors and two induction blowers. Fuel filtration is robust, with dual Racor 1000 filters to each engine and dual Racor 500 filters to each generator, while dripless shaft seals and a high water alarm add seaworthy confidence. Bilge management is comprehensive with a hand-operated bilge pump forward to starboard, an electric/automatic bilge pump, and a 24-volt bilge pump feeding a six-compartment manifold. Fire suppression and washdown needs are served by a 220-volt fire pump. Cooling capacity is refreshed by new A/C chillers in 2015, alongside rebuilt in 2015 air conditioning raw-water cooling pumps and chilled-water circulation pumps, both port aft.
