Trade-A-Boat — January 2018

“Lounges around a teak table make the cockpit an ideal

breakfast location and the extendable sunpad at the

transom will beckon for a mid-morning nap.”

With the addition of a couple of
folding chairs, there would be room for
eight around the large, folding table.

DOWN BELOW
A sturdy stainless steel rail protects the
stairwell leading to the three cabins
below, where the roomy VIP cabin
in the bow has an island queen bed
angled so the bedhead is under the
starboard window.
This affords a view forward through
the portside, leaving the narrow space
ahead for a long vanity and large
mirror.
This cabin has its own ensuite with
glass enclosed shower and very modern
fitout.
A smaller guest cabin has twin beds
and shares its head with day guests.
Light shines in from two portholes,

and a full-length wall mirror gives the

feeling of a larger space.

The layout and contemporary fitout

of the master cabin give a welcoming

feeling of a space.

The designers have targeted this zone

as a private, secluded place to relax

or work, with a comfortable L-shaped

lounge under a set of windows, a

desk/makeup vanity, a large storage

cupboard and walk-in wardrobe.

In the private head are his-and-her

sinks, and a dark grey tiled shower with

porthole and shelves.

TIME TO RELAX

Walkways on both sides of the vessel

lead forward from the cockpit to the

Portuguese bow, where a sunpad boasts

three recliners, ahead of a forward

facing lounge.

Up on the flybridge is yet another

outdoor entertaining space and a helm

station under an optional opening

hardtop.

There’s room to relax and frolic, with

an open deck to the rear for storage

or dancing in the moonlight. A lounge

wraps around a large teak table, and

drinks and lunch are taken care of with

a Dometic barbecue , fridge/ freezer,

icemaker and sink.

Yet another sun lounge sits alongside

the helm, while a freshwater shower is

there to cool you down, too.

The lower helm has a carbon

wrapped dash and a pair of black

leather chairs.

Vision is from the helm is excellent,

and a door opens to the starboard

walkway for easy docking, which –

when combined with a bowthruster
