As well as being a place to enjoy the real essence of yachting lifestyle, decks are also a serious work area and each area must be safe, practical and so fun to use.

Beach Club

A true beach club should be a waterside lounge and terrace. Usually at the stern, a beach club might open on one, two or three sides of the yacht. It should be practical, able to withstand plenty of use, watersports and saltwater, but also luxurious, creating a spectacular retreat day or night.
