Incredible Outdoor entertaining
spaces spread over two decks
Embark on a journey starting from the aft deck, where you’re greeted with a forward-facing U-shaped seating arrangement complemented by three swivel/rocking chairs, all set around an intricately designed, custom teak table. Just ahead, discover an open-air dining space and a bar on the starboard side for standing gatherings. Behind this inviting area lies a vast sun pad, a casual table with chairs for relaxation, and easy access on both sides to the swim platform. To the port side, a broad, gently sloping staircase ascends to the flybridge. Positioned at the rear of this level, four chaise lounges offer unparalleled vistas. Centered just ahead is a spacious hot tub, with two oversized chairs and ottomans further forward for added comfort. The shaded part of this deck boasts two large sofas facing each other, separated by custom teak high-low tables perfect for informal dining. A large TV placed forward transforms this into an ideal social hub. The starboard side is home to a fitness area equipped with a treadmill, free weights, and more. A sliding glass wall shields this deck from the wind, and when opened, reveals a wet bar on the port side, three Gaggenau grills, and dual upper helm stations.
Tastefully Created Interior Spaces
Enter the salon through sliding glass doors at the aft, which seamlessly connect the indoor and outdoor spaces. Here, two sizable couches and a pair of occasional chairs encircle a coffee table, creating a cozy spot for gatherings. A 55” TV is integrated into the wet bar, which is complete with a sink, refrigerator, and wine cooler. Moving forward, there’s a formal dining area that seats 10, flanked by floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides that open to expansive fold-out balconies. A doorway on the starboard side opens to the entrance foyer, stairs down to the guest rooms, and the on-deck master suite. This suite boasts a large walk-through closet, a king bed, and separate his and hers bathrooms. The lower deck accommodates guests in four ensuite bedrooms, including two queen rooms aft and two twin rooms forward, both of which can convert to king beds, and all featuring additional Pullman beds.
