The brow of the wheelhouse is in shadow and in conjunction with her sharp angles, gives her an aggressive ‘shark’s head’-like appearance. Floor-to-ceiling windows on the main deck and upper deck flood the salons with plenty of natural light and provide uninterrupted views of the destination.

EXTERIOR

From the generous lower deck swim platform guests have access to the beach club and the main deck aft, the latter offering a forward-facing C-shaped sofa and alfresco dining table, plus additional chairs to seat all guests for an alfresco meal.

The upper deck has a similar setup along the stern, and an alfresco dining table is placed beneath the shade of the sundeck overhang. Side walkways connect around to the foredeck, where there is a C-shaped sofa and raised table for enjoying uninterrupted forward views of the location. Further down on the bow there is a Davit crane and storage for the tenders that frees up space for the beach club on the lower deck.

The sundeck is the outdoor socialising hub and provides a broad sunbed along the stern, a central bar and alfresco lounging/dining area shaded by the hardtop, and a forward Jacuzzi surrounded on both sides by sunpads.

INTERIOR

Harrison Eidsgaard designed the interiors with a light contemporary palette and free-flowing layout created in harmony with the exterior living spaces.

The majority of the guest and crew accommodation is placed on the lower deck along with a beach club in the stern.

The main deck hosts the Master suite forward, and the bedroom has stunning views from the king-sized bed. The en-suite bathroom comes with a corner bathtub as well as a shower, and his-and-hers basins. Behind the Master suite is the main foyer and galley, followed by the formal dining area and main salon.
The skylounge is a desirable place to relax together due to the decorative and structural glass that brings the light into the centre of the surroundings.

The engines provide a top speed of 23 knots.
