| Layout
Initial access to the yacht is either via the teak stairway on starboard that can be lowered to water level, or via the stern passarelle. Boarding via the passarelle, the aft deck seating area, which is fixed to the pulpit, is entered. Moving forward is the fixed deck superstructure, which functions as an exclusive dining table for up to 12 guests while at the same time creating interior space for the master cabin. Protected fixed deck seating is provided just aft of the deckhouse and bridge. Permanent biminis are placed over the deckhouse and the aft deck dining table, with the additional possibility of covering the entire deck area between the two fixed units. Forward of the deckhouse there is ample space for sunbathing, part of which can be used for tender stowage during extensive voyages. At the bow is the entrance to the separated crew’s quarters. Accommodation
Down the stairs down from the deckhouse is the full beam saloon. To port is the superb wood panelled bar. There is a table with seating for 5 guests, to starboard is a dining space for up to 10. The galley is to port behind the bar area. Forward of the saloon are two symmetrical double guest cabins both with en-suite bathroom. Each has a dressing table and built-in safe. Natural light is provided through the portholes just above waterline level and deck prisms. All guest cabins are air conditioned and equipped with TV/VCR and CD player. Cupboards, fridge, freezer, washing machine and dryer and toilet are all accessed off the corridor aft of the saloon. At the end of the corridor is the watertight enclosed machinery space. The deep long-keeled hull provides an enormous depth and space for all machinery, making everything easily accessible and maintainable. Through the machinery space is the workshop with switchboards, chargers, inverters, watermaker and auto-pilot pump. The aft cabins are accessed through the machinery space watertight bulkhead and door. Two upper-lower guest cabins share the bathroom on starboard, the midships cabin being somewhat smaller than the starboard one. Finally, in the stern the generous master cabin is entered, which, due to the fact that follows the shape of the stern, shows a beautiful play of levels and carpentry underneath what is the deck dining table. The cabin is flooded with natural light thanks to the six portholes, placed below the dining table surface. En-suite with the master cabin is a separate heads, through which the teak-finished double Jacuzzi is reached. The crew’s quarters are situated in the bow and are accessed only via the exterior. Space for four crew is provided with an en-suite bathroom. Tank hold, Storage Spaces and LazaretteThe tank hold is accessed through a floor hatch in the hallway between the two forward guest cabins. This space extends below the entire saloon and the forward guest cabins and holds three 1200 litre stainless steel fresh water tanks and five 1200 litre stainless steel fuel tanks. In between the tanks is the service battery bank with an ample bilge depth below it and floorboards above the batteries enable large storage. Forward of the tanks is the air conditioning unit to starboard and the water pressure system to port. Towards the stem are the waste water tank serving the forward guest cabins and the crew cabin on port and access to the chain locker on starboard. The lazarette is reached via a hatch on the aft deck. Here, the hydraulic steering gear is easily serviceable and storage is created for spares etc. |
