FEATURES

Make yourself comfortable

Below deck, her maple interior makes her very light and gives her an open, contemporary feel. The beautifully-designed upper saloon offers excellent views from the trademark Oyster large wraparound deck windows and, when you’re tired of looking out, there is a built-in 42” screen to watch the latest movies.

The expansive four-sided wraparound settee has an unusual custom square table that swivels and expands to create space for up to eight guests to dine together. Down in the lower saloon, there is another large and inviting L-shaped sofa with a folding table where you can read, play games or relax with a movie on the big screen.

The grandmaster cabin offers the height of luxury, with a centre line queen size bed and soft carpet underfoot. There is a ladder leading up to the deck through a hatch behind the helm stations, so you can be out in the fresh air in moments. The cabin has its own en suite heads with a walk-in shower. The port and starboard cabins offer twin side-by-side berths, with en suite heads with showers for everyone’s comfort and convenience.
