On Deck

An aspect that catches attention is the yacht's retractable bathing platform that can hold a 5-meter rib, along with the garage on the foredeck under a bathing platform for a 4-meter rib.  

An interior staircase takes you up to the sundeck with an expansive seating area and grill.

Interior

On the yacht's main deck, the first thing that impresses is the beam of the yacht, which is 7.4 meters wide. There is a vast amount of floor space, light upholstery, a dark wood finish, and stone finishes across the boat. There are big windows in the saloon and a television that rises out from the flooring.

The owner's cabin is found to be unique due to its three-section layout. A spacious dressing area with large wardrobes and a desk area that offers a stunning view, the bedroom itself and the ensuite area. There is ample storage space here and the ensuite includes twin basins, a toilet, and a bidet.

In the lower deck, there are four big cabins, whose spaciousness is attributed to the yacht's wide beam. The organic feel of the stone finish and woodwork and attentions to detail are appreciated, such as custom-made hangers. Also highlighted are the ensuite facilities in these cabins.

The pilot house has a professional layout with the multifunction screens for engine instrumentation and navigation. Also highlighted were the dining area on the upper deck and the sundeck on top of the boat.

Crew Accommodation

The crew area includes a mess area, a laundry, and three crew cabins - all with ensuites. Also shown is the galley, which is on the upper deck alongside the dining area.

Performance

The engine space houses two large generators and a Seakeeper gyro stabilizer. The engines are triple Volvo Penta IPS-1350, each with 1,000 horsepower, giving the boat a top speed of 17.5 knots with a cruising speed of 15 knots.  At an economic speed of 12 knots, the provided range can be up to 2,000 nautical miles.

In Summary

Nick concludes the tour by expressing his admiration for the yacht's design, attention to detail, and the feeling of solidity it provides. He appreciates the yacht's ability to feel like a larger super yacht while still maintaining the running costs of a smaller vessel.
