Every element is curated to elevate both living and entertainment, with the entire interior showcasing seamlessly joined exotic woods, lustrous stainless steel, and exquisite stone countertops that extend the level of finish all the way to the crew quarters and the day head. CRUMDALE presents a four-stateroom, all en-suite layout anchored by a full-beam master, complemented by a day head and aft crew quarters comprising two cabins with a private head.

Most recently, the yacht received an extensive refresh at the Hinckley Yard in the Northeast, including a comprehensive 1,000-hour service, a new isinglass enclosure, teak restoration, recaulking, and meticulous polishing of the interior settees and woodwork.

Overview

On the flybridge, an open-concept layout transforms at will into a climate-controlled retreat thanks to air conditioning and a three-sided bridge enclosure, or can be fully enclosed in isinglass when desired. Command comes naturally from two Stidd helm chairs with armrest controls, with a drop-down TV positioned for effortless viewing. Entertaining is elevated by a wet bar with sink, bar refrigerator, and ice maker, four upgraded Release Marine Carolina helm chairs at the bar, and an ElectriChef electric barbecue. Guests settle into U-shaped seating with storage beneath, gather around a high-gloss wood table for eight, and stretch out on an adjustable lounger by the helm and an adjustable sun pad, both with hidden stowage. Sail shades temper the sun, boat deck spreader lights set the evening ambience, and a Steel Head hydraulic 1,750 lb davit stands ready for tender service.

At deck level, the specification is resolutely blue-water: a Maxwell 4000 Series hydraulic anchor windlass feeds a 135 lb polished stainless-steel Ultra anchor on 300 ft of 3/8" chain with chain stopper, while a hands-free anchor chain wash keeps the rode pristine. Aft, port and starboard Maxwell 2500 Series line winches simplify line handling. Freshwater washdowns are placed at bow, stern and boat deck. Connectivity and entertainment are assured via KVH TracVision HD7 for DIRECTV HDTV, a Wave WiFi internet signal receiver/booster, and underwater lights both at midships and the stern. The teak decks, sanded in 2023, gleam invitingly.

The aft deck and swim platform continue the open-air lifestyle with teak flooring underfoot, secure transom gates, and a drop-down Sony TV. A wet bar with stainless-steel sink and a refrigerator concealed within cabinetry complement a high-gloss wood dining table with seating for eight and a U-shaped bench with generous under-seat storage. Two Maxwell VC250 vertical electric line winches assist with docking, while swim platform spreader lights, a hand-held freshwater shower, and a sailcloth awning that shades the aft deck while offering a measure of privacy complete this versatile terrace on the sea.

Inside, the salon and dining area are wrapped in rich wood paneling, flooring, and cabinetry. An electric drop-down Sony TV with surround sound anchors movie nights, while retractable screens at the salon door invite the breeze without the bugs. A wine cooler and a Scotsman icemaker discreetly hide in cabinetry, electric shades tailor the light, and a high-gloss wood dining table seats eight comfortably. A portside day head sits perfectly between salon and galley, and Huper Optik Nano Ceramic window tint preserves views while taming heat and glare.

The galley is appointed for gourmet ambitions with granite countertops, warm wood cabinetry and abundant storage. Twin Elkay sinks with pull-out faucet pair with a Whirlpool garbage disposal, while a suite of JennAir appliances—refrigerator, over-the-range microwave, electric cooktop, electric oven, and dishwasher—teams with a Whirlpool trash compactor to streamline every task. Huper Optik Nano Ceramic window tint keeps the space cool and crystal clear.

Forward, the dinette and lower helm form a commanding yet convivial hub. Adjustable Stidd helm chairs with Garmin armrest controls face panoramic bridge windows treated with Huper Optik Nano Ceramic tint (clear on the bridge panes for night clarity). Windshield defrosters stand ready, and port and starboard weather-tight doors lead directly to the side decks, each with retractable screens. The space is finished in wood flooring and cabinetry and features an enclosed deep freezer forward of the dinette, a Vizio TV, plentiful under-seat storage, and an adjustable dinette table.

Below, the full-beam master stateroom indulges with a king-size berth framed by finely crafted wood cabinetry and custom wall-mounted bedside sconces. A Sony TV with surround sound integrates with the entertainment system, while a vanity and bureau to starboard balance a bureau to port. Oversized windows with electric shades bathe the suite in light, and dual full-height cedar-lined closets with automatic lighting—plus a safe in the portside closet—attend to extended cruising. Huper Optik Nano Ceramic tint refines comfort and privacy.

The master head is a study in indulgence with separate entry his-and-hers heads joining at a shared, glass-enclosed granite shower. Granite countertops, dual vessel sinks, and wood cabinetry complement underfloor heating and windows with electric shades, all finished with Huper Optik Nano Ceramic tint for serene privacy.

Guests are pampered in the forward VIP stateroom with a queen-size berth, wood cabinetry, a lighted dressing mirror and cabinet, and a Sony TV. A cedar-lined closet with automatic lighting, a private head with granite countertop, and a fiberglass shower with glass door complete the suite. The starboard guest stateroom offers side-by-side lower berths that convert to a queen, a Sony TV, a cedar-lined closet with automatic lighting, a window with manual blinds, and a private head with granite countertop and fiberglass shower with glass door, all enhanced by Huper Optik Nano Ceramic tint. Mirroring it, the port guest stateroom features side-by-side lower berths that combine to a queen, a Sony TV, a cedar-lined closet with automatic lighting, a window with manual blinds, and a private head with granite countertop and fiberglass shower with glass door, also finished with Huper Optik Nano Ceramic tint.

Electronics and navigation are comprehensive and redundant. The Garmin package brings touch-screen chart plotters—two per helm station—autopilot, two armchair remotes, satellite weather tracking, AIS, radar, two VHF radios, and cameras (two in the engine room and one monitoring the aft deck). Two 5-inch Ritchie compasses provide instant bearing, while Starlink ensures high-speed connectivity offshore. An air horn and a system for shipwide announcements add authority, a Maxwell auto chain counter adds precision at the bow, and FLIR thermal imaging extends confidence into the dark.

Aft, the crew quarters are superbly practical and comfortable, with a full-berth captain’s cabin featuring a Sony TV and a cedar-lined closet with automatic lighting. A separate crew cabin presents custom-built twin-size bunk beds with their own closet, and the space includes a stainless-steel workbench with Snap-On tool chest, a kitchenette with sink, microwave, and refrigerator, and an additional washer/dryer for the crew. Wood paneling, cabinetry and flooring elevate the ambiance, a secondary Sony TV serves the crew space, and Huper Optik Nano Ceramic tint manages heat and glare.

In the engine room and systems spaces, mechanical pedigree shines. Twin CAT C32 ACERT 1,600 HP engines show approximately 1,200 hours and recently received extensive 1,000-hour service with warranty updates. Port and starboard 29 kW Cummins Onan generators with sound shields (about 1,150 hours) support hotel loads. A Side-Power hydraulic system serves the stabilizers as well as the bow and stern thrusters, with an electric hydraulic pump enabling zero-speed stabilization. An inverter package upgrade provides seamless power transfer, and air conditioning reliability is enhanced by two Electro-Sea AC strainers. Delta-T intake/exhaust fans, wet exhaust, and port and starboard CAT controls with display panels underscore professional-grade execution, as do ZF transmissions with direct shaft drive and dripless seals, stainless-steel rails alongside the engines, and an integrated fire suppression system with automatic machinery shutdown upon deployment. Maintenance is simplified by an oil change system serving both engines, transmissions and gensets; dual Racor fuel/water separators with Y-valves for engines and generators; color-coded and labeled hoses, lines, and manifolds for fuel, water, and hydraulics; aluminum diamond-plate flooring; a 2 HP air compressor with multiple quick-disconnect outlets; a freshwater outlet with hose; and a Gulfcoast F1 fuel polishing system.

In the bilge, a dedicated “dry bilge” ventilation system exhausts directly overboard to keep spaces fresh. A Tecnicomar waste treatment system approved by the U.S. Coast Guard, two 40-gallon Torrid water heaters, and both cold and hot water circulation pumps support extended cruising. The Sea Recovery Aqua Matic 900 watermaker replenishes stores into a 350-gallon stainless freshwater tank with sight gauge, protected further by an additional 3M whole-house filter plumbed post water pump. A 200-gallon waste tank and four grey-water sump boxes collect all air-conditioning condensate as well as shower and sink water.

The fuel system is engineered for range and control with a total capacity of 2,500 gallons distributed between port and saddle tanks of 558 gallons each and a central day tank of 1,384 gallons. Every tank features a sight gauge with looped vents led outside, and fuel fills are accessible from either the port or the starboard side of the vessel.

In the lazarette, shore power is effortless via port and starboard 100 Amp Glendenning cables feeding two transformers with surge protection and low-voltage boost. Sea Star power steering with Shadow Drive ensures fingertip helm feel. A Smart Y 50 Amp to 100 Amp converter (with two 50 Amp inputs) expands dockside flexibility, while a 20 ft 100 Amp shore power extension and a 50 ft 50 Amp extension cable broaden reach. A dockside water connection rounds out the utility suite.
