Salon

The salon unfolds as a large, open gathering space with ample seating for the whole family, anchored by a supple leather sofa and a convertible teak coffee table that adapts from casual lounging to cocktail hour with ease. Entertainment is seamless with Bose surround sound speakers, a Sony DVD player, and DirecTV wiring, while Hunter Douglas blinds refine the light and mood.

Twin sliding glass doors lead to the cockpit, complemented by matching dual sliding screen doors at the aft salon entrances for breezy days. A custom end table and bookshelf at the forward settee add clever storage and style, and the professionally decorated finish ties the space together with quiet, timeless elegance—everything you expect in a premium motor yacht.

Galley

Just two steps up and open to the salon, the galley is a true cook’s domain, equipped with GE cooking appliances, a Frigidaire refrigerator/freezer with icemaker and water, a GE dishwasher, a GE oven, and an oversized sink that makes prep effortless. A GE washer and dryer add practical convenience for longer stays aboard, and the day head adjacent to the galley keeps the main deck wonderfully functional for guests and crew during passagemaking or casual evenings at anchor.

Navigation and communication

Confidence at the helm comes from a well‑specified suite: Garmin radar for clear situational awareness; a Simrad Roberston AP 20 autopilot backed by a B&G depth sounder; Garmin GPS units (Pilothouse 8617; Flybridge 86112) for precise positioning; B&G wind instrumentation and speed log; a Raymarine 430 loud hailer for effective hailing; and an Icom VHF MC/245 for reliable communications on every passage.

Pilothouse

The pilothouse centers on a Stidd black leather helm seat with a chrome base, facing a modern panel that includes new electronics with three touchscreen monitors, upgraded electronic controls, digital CAT displays, a Side Power bow thruster control, an ARC spotlight remote, a Simrad autopilot 20, and a backup Auto Helm autopilot. An L‑shaped settee is raised for sightlines, with storage beneath, and serves a teak folding table for charts or casual dining.

Port and starboard sliding doors open directly to the walk‑around side decks, each fitted with Phantom screens, and there is easy internal access to the flybridge—everything arranged for comfortable, safe passages on a raised‑pilothouse motoryacht.

Master cabin

The master cabin features a centerline queen bed running fore and aft, flanked by two bedside tables and framed by four large stainless steel opening ports that bring in air and light. Storage is generous, with an overhead prism delivering soft natural illumination, a Samsung TV for quiet evenings, and a six‑drawer dresser to keep wardrobes organized. Double‑door access to the engine room underscores the yacht’s service‑friendly design.

Master head

Positioned to starboard of the master cabin, the owner’s head offers generous counter space, two large stainless steel opening ports, a VacuFlush head system, and a stall shower with a glass folding door—bright, practical, and easy to maintain on extended cruises.

Mid cabin

The mid cabin is smartly arranged with two bunks, two large stainless steel opening ports, a full‑height hanging locker, and abundant storage. Double‑opening doors allow the space to open up when desired, creating a more connected feel with the companionway.

VIP cabin

Forward, the VIP welcomes guests with a centerline queen bunk, four large stainless steel opening ports, and an overhead hatch with screen for light and ventilation. Two hanging lockers provide ample wardrobe space, and there is direct access to the forward head for added privacy—exactly what discerning guests expect aboard a luxury cruiser.

Guest head

Bright and inviting, the guest head features one large stainless steel opening port, a VacuFlush head system, a glass door to the stall shower, a Grohe faucet, and a prism deck light in the shower that brings in natural daylight.

Flybridge

Up top, the flybridge offers commanding views and easy control, starting with two Stidd helm seats (recovered September 2024) complete with footrests and cup holders. The new Bimini shades a full helm with upgraded electronic controls, a compass, ICOM VHF with remote mic, Wesmar stabilizer control, engine start/stop buttons, a Side Power bow thruster control, trim tab controls, CAT digital gauges, and a stainless steel wheel. A generous U‑shaped settee with a large folding table encourages long, relaxed meals, while starboard cabinetry adds storage, a dedicated sink, and a drop‑in freezer—ideal for warm‑weather cruising on a flybridge motor yacht.

Boat deck

Two steps down, the boat deck opens wide for easy tender handling and storage, with port and starboard lockers keeping gear tidy. A Nautical Structures davit (1500 lb) launches to the stern or to port, and a Maxwell HWC 3500 anchor windlass stands ready for secure anchoring on remote coastlines.

Decks, cockpit and swim platform

The exterior spaces are dialed‑in for easy living: four teak folding chairs and a teak table rest on teak decking, with quick access to the lazarette and a cockpit shower after a swim. A teak and stainless steel ladder leads to the boat deck, a transom door opens to the swim step, and the swim platform is teak‑clad for secure footing. Three stainless steel removable U‑rails, two storage lockers, wide walk‑around side decks, port and starboard hull doors, a port folding wing station, a Portuguese bridge with storage, and a single access door to the bow complete a seaworthy, family‑friendly layout.

Engine room and mechanical equipment

Mechanical systems are robust and service‑ready: twin Caterpillar C12 705hp diesel engines (engine hours: 4300, June 2025) turn ZF IRM 325A gearboxes on a straight shaft drive. Ship’s power is supported by Northern Lights generators at 20 kW and 8 kW, with a 24‑volt capacitor engine starting battery for dependable starts. A Watermakers Inc. watermaker extends independence, while Wesmar trim tabs/stabilizers, a Side Power bow thruster, and a Hynautic steering system sharpen handling. Climate control comes via Cruise Air and Dometic air conditioning—everything you need for long‑range, bluewater cruising.

Tender

A 14’ Edgewater tender powered by a Yamaha 40hp completes the package, making shore trips and exploring shallow coves effortless.
