Latitude is hull number 6 of the triple award winning 625 series designed by the Humphreys Design Team and built by the world-renowned British blue water sailboat builder, Oyster Yachts. Latitude offers a brilliant balance of interior and exterior space.
Above decks, Latitude is very generous; a roomy cockpit seats 10 and offers al fresco dining and full shade under the optional bimini, ample deck space both fore and aft provide plenty of sun-soaking opportunities and the fitted rail seats on the aft deck are always a great place to watch this beautiful yacht ply the waves.
All sails are hydraulically controlled, the main sail features in-mast furling and Latitude boasts twin carbon fiber helms just aft of the cockpit.
Below decks, Latitude accommodates 4 guests (6 if families with children) offering a versatile layout. The master cabin is full beam of the yacht aft, with a center lined queen size bed, vanity, loveseat and en-suite with shower. On the starboard side forward of the master, an upper and lower bunk cabin is ideal for children and offers shared head facilities. There are two cabins forward of the saloon. The starboard double bed berth has an en suite private head and shower. The port bunk cabin will share the forward port head/shower with the mid-ships cabin. The crew will sleep in the port forward bunk cabin.
Her interior has a light contemporary feel with light maple joinery and walnut flooring. The port and starboard vertical seascape windows let in the light and ensure passengers never miss the excitement passing by.

Frank grew up in Vermont, boating on Lake Champlain most weekends with his family (when the ice was out!). He began sailing out of Newport, RI in the 1980’s and began his professional yachting career 20 years ago. Frank brings many years of experience running large sailing yachts to SY LATITUDE including SY GEORGIA a 160ft Alloy Sloop, the classic schooner TREE OF LIFE and SY MARAE a 108ft Alloy Sloop. With 20 years experience in the Caribbean and New England charter world, Frank knows all of the quietest anchorages and hottest nightspots.
Frank is very easy going and loves teaching guests about sailing. If you feel like dragging yourself away from the comfort of the cockpit settees, he is more than happy for you to take the helm! Frank is also a qualified Rescue Diver. When he’s not sailing, he enjoys water sports, reading and photography.
