EXTERIOR

The lower deck swim platform can be used for sunbathing beside the water, and after hours in the sunshine guests can take refreshments from the sofas and tables on the main deck aft.

On the upper deck, there are four circular tables placed in a line between chairs and a sofa lining the stern.
The foredeck provides a cosy space where guests can sit on the forward and aft-facing sofas with drinks tables in between and savour the sunset, or settle onto the forward raised sunbeds and stargaze.

The sundeck aft has a massive Jacuzzi, a cinema screen and raised sunbeds to make the perfect place for sun worshippers and guests looking for the ultimate relaxation. The sundeck forward provides a quiet space where a couple of guests can escape for drinks and games at the small circular table, or to sit in the shaded armchair to watch the world go by.

One final outdoor space can be found on the flydeck, where a wet bar surrounds the front part of the communications mast with seating and drinks tables farther forward and a broad sunbed with sun umbrellas.

INTERIOR

The lower deck hosts the crew accommodation forward, including the mess and laundry facilities. Amidships is the majority of the guest accommodation, followed by the engine room and a spacious tender garage. A beach club is located in the stern.

On the main deck, the Master suite is placed forward with additional tender storage in the bow. Behind the Master suite there is a port galley and a starboard main foyer, both of which connect through to the massive main salon to the aft. Here there is a forward cinema with a large curving sofa, in front of the wall-mounted widescreen TV, with the central section containing a drinks table and with six chairs to port and a conversation area to starboard comprised of a sofa, two armchairs and drinks tables. A wet bar is placed near the glass sliding doors out to the main deck aft to efficiently serve guests wherever they are.

The upper deck forward houses the helm station and there is a sofa behind the pilot chair for guests to take in the forward views while enjoying air-conditioned surroundings. Behind, there is an elegant contemporary skylounge that blends in elements of art noveau and stone and ash-toned greys with warm lighting and light wooden panelling. A wet bar is placed forward to port with the setting behind providing two day beds and armchairs placed around a drinks table.

Opposite, sofas follow the line of the wall and end in a chaise-lounger to the aft, with a coffee table at the centre. To the aft is the circular dining table to seat 12 and guests can open up the windows for a more alfresco experience linked to the upper deck aft.

The sundeck interior has a laid back beach club feel in the aft, with a wet bar and plenty of circular armchairs, a day bed and a corner sofa. The forward section in front of the lift (elevator) could be used as a cosy library or media room, and has a widescreen TV on the aft wall, a leather sofa to port and armchairs opposite. Drinks tables and a coffee table complete the setting.

A pair of MTU 12V 4000 M63 engines produce a top speed of 16 knots, a cruising speed of 13 knots and a range of 5,000 nautical miles at 12 knots.
