EXTERIOR

From the lower deck swim platform guests have access to the beach club and the main deck aft, where an L-shaped sofa is placed in both aft corners.

A staircase connects to the upper deck, where the foredeck is used for storing the tenders and motorised water toys with a Davit crane for easy launch and retrieval. To the aft, there is a circular dining table to seat 12 and seating along the stern for after-dinner drinks.

The sundeck is designed for entertaining and places a large Jacuzzi to the aft with the section amidships dedicated to alfresco dining with refreshments from the wet bar. The forward area is furnished with sun pads which enjoy sweeping forward views.

INTERIOR

On the lower deck, the stern contains the tender garage, forward of which there is the engine room followed by a room which can be furnished as the Owner desires.

The guest accommodation amidships all has en-suite facilities and places two double cabins side-by-side followed by twin cabins to port and starboard. A generous VIP stateroom is placed forward, within which there is a widescreen TV, a wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom fitted with a shower and bathtub. The crew accommodation and facilities are placed within the bow.

The main deck aft is an open-plan environment that separates the dining area from the salon using the walls. A lounger is placed in each aft corner with an L-shaped sofa with coffee table to port and an additional sofa opposite. Forward, the formal dining table seats up to 12 guests on a beautifully designed modern environment filled with natural light.

The main foyer is amidships with the Master suite forward, accessed through the office. The bathroom (fitted with twin sinks and a shower) is in the middle of the Master suite, placing the king-sized bed farther forward with lounge areas on either side. Wardrobes are placed to port and starboard, between which is placed a widescreen TV. 

On the upper deck, the helm station is placed forward with direct access to the Captain’s cabin amidships and to starboard. To port, there is a service corridor connecting to the skylounge, within which there are a wet bar and L-shaped sofa with an armchair around a coffee table. A final armchair is placed in the aft port corner for quiet relaxation at the end of the day.

A pair of MTU 12V 2000 M61 engines ensures a maximum speed of 16.3 knots and a cruising speed of 12 knots with a range of 3,750 nautical miles.
