TKTKTKBOAT NAME TKTK¶ The sleek design has ambient light in all directions, from the
salon’s side windows to the electric sunroof, and the skylights in
the forward section to the single-pane windshield. The 63 GTO
is an open-feel yacht that can be closed against the elements.
¶ Seating on the aft deck includes a U-shaped settee spanning
across the transom, up the starboard-side and across the after
bulkhead. A teak table allows a place for drinks, and a portside
grill and fridge assist with alfresco meals. ¶ Sightlines from the
aft deck to the helm are unobstructed, making the main deck a
single-level social zone. Guests can also congregate inside with
a U-shaped settee to starboard, its two high-gloss teak tables
able to become a single dining table by way of a fl ip-over fi ller.
The space also has a 50-inch Samsung LCD TV. ¶ Undercount-
er appliances help to maintain a clear view out the windows
from the in-line, portside galley. Avonite countertops, a fridge/
freezer, a multiburner Bosch fl at cooktop and a microwave are
standard, as is a 24-piece, six-place setting that helps make this
area turnkey. ¶ Her ride is as smooth as her layout. Taking the
wheel on the Targa 63 GTO is akin to driving a British roadster.
Quick out of the hole, she is responsive, with assured tracking
through turns that makes for confi dent operation. An optional
