Vessel walkthrough

Boarding is effortless, whether from the swim platform, through the boarding gates to port and starboard opposite the pilothouse doors, or via the aft deck gates. Ascending one of the twin stairways from the teak swim platform, the presence of both inboard and outboard handrails immediately underscores the thoughtful design enhancements that elevate comfort and safety. The open aft deck is sheltered overhead and fitted with wing doors to port and starboard; a staircase to port leads to the boat deck, while a storage cabinet resides to starboard. A built-in settee, four teak chairs, and a large teak table comfortably seat six to eight for alfresco dining. For added security at sea, the owner specified an additional safety feature: a hatch on the aft deck providing direct entry to the crew’s quarters and lazarette below. This secondary access ensures safe ingress and egress when conditions render the transom door hazardous, and offers an alternative exit from the crew area in an emergency.

Double doors usher you into the main salon, where a beam of more than twenty-one feet confers the volume and presence of a much larger yacht. The upgraded cherry wood paneling throughout creates a warm, refined ambiance. To port, an L-settee, easy chair, and custom coffee table invite relaxation; to starboard, an entertainment center is paired with two custom chairs. Just forward of the settee, the formal dining area features a custom glass dining table and four chairs.

To starboard, a wet bar with a U-line ice maker and Sub-Zero under-counter refrigerator is complemented by a custom cabinet with dedicated racks for glassware and china. Step up to the fully equipped galley, where cherry-paneled appliances and granite countertops and backsplashes blend beauty with durability. Storage is abundant for all cookware, with custom drawers tailored for cutlery and flatware. A full-height custom glassware and plate cabinet stands to starboard alongside a pantry for additional provisions, while the dayhead is positioned forward.

The pilothouse helm station showcases a full suite of newly installed electronics. Professionally designed, this top-of-the-line system includes multiple backup components for redundancy and safety. Pilot and co-pilot helm chairs accompany a large U-settee with a table, creating a comfortable command and observation area.

Starboard-side stairways lead both down to the guest accommodations and up to the flybridge. Outer Reef’s trademark Deluxbridge delivers an expansive layout with voluminous storage, featuring pilot and co-pilot Stidd helm chairs, a full-beam helm with complete Navionics, and a custom-designed chart well. L-settees to port and starboard each serve a Corian-topped hi/lo table, while a wet bar with refrigerator/ice maker and a gas BBQ grill enhances entertaining. A gas alarm monitors the propane tanks—another safety feature proposed by the owner.

Gates open to the boat deck, which carries a centerline, heavy-duty 2,000 lb. davit capable of lowering tenders and life rafts to either port or starboard. To accommodate this capability, the boat deck was strengthened and the rails were modified.

Below deck are four staterooms and three heads, each with a shower. Forward, the VIP cabin enjoys an overhead watertight hatch/skylight, a queen berth with drawer storage below, two cedar-lined hanging lockers, and storage cabinets along the port and starboard bulkheads, plus an ensuite head with shower. Aft to port lies the guest cabin with twin berths and drawer storage below, a nightstand, and a cedar-lined hanging locker; this cabin also has an ensuite head and shower, shared with the starboard cabin. Opposite, beyond the port cabin, the washer/dryer and linen closet are set to starboard. The starboard guest cabin offers over/under bunks, storage, and a cedar-lined closet.

Amidships, the full-beam master suite presents a centerline king berth against a custom headboard wall, with vanities and drawer storage along both the port and starboard bulkheads; the vanity includes a custom mirror. Aft lies the head, finished—as are all the heads on NV—with granite flooring and countertops, while a large walk-in cedar-lined closet occupies the starboard side.

The engine room is accessed either through the master stateroom’s closet or via the transom door from the swim platform. It is arranged to assure excellent access and generous working space around all equipment.

Aft of the engine room are the crew’s quarters, also serving as a fifth guest cabin. To starboard, a double cabin and full head with shower provide comfort and privacy; to port, a crew lounge and galley create a functional retreat. A large storage area with a washer/dryer sits aft of the crew lounge, and a watertight transom door opens directly to the swim platform.

Construction

Crafted with a hand-laid FRP hull featuring PVC foam sandwich construction above the waterline, this yacht benefits from a vinylester barrier lamination for robust osmosis protection. The hand-laid FRP deck/house and flybridge also employ PVC foam sandwich construction, all supported by full-length longitudinal engine stringers complemented by athwartship stringers for exceptional rigidity. Salon windows are fitted with 3/8-inch tempered glass, while the pilothouse is secured with 1/2-inch tempered glass. Rub rails capped in stainless steel guard the sheer, and the bilge is faired smooth and sealed with epoxy paint. A built-in swim platform carries a stainless steel swim ladder and rails and has been upgraded with twelve inches added to its width, working in concert with the Quiet Roll integrated spray rail system for a drier, quieter ride. Kevlar is added to the fiberglass lay-up in the bow section, and an extra bow watertight compartment is secured by a Freeman watertight hatch. Additional hull stringers run the full length of the hull port and starboard with no change to the normal lamination or hull thickness, and targeted hull strengthening is incorporated around the stabilizers. Offshore Freeman heavy-duty exterior doors fortify the pilothouse, and safety is further enhanced by an emergency hatch from the aft deck to the crew quarters with a removable stainless-steel ladder. Demonstrating meticulous build discipline, the hull remained in the mold for a minimum of ten weeks. Practical movement aboard is ensured by built-in stairs from the aft deck to the boat deck, complete with a hatch and stainless-steel rails.
