More about this yacht

Vessel Walkthrough

You enter the interior of the vessel through either the port or starboard sliding doors into the large wheelhouse. From this point, you can access multiple areas: There is a doorway leading aft to the galley, a stairway leading down to the accommodations and a ladder leading up to the large flybridge.

If you continue aft through the door, you will enter into the large galley which features full-size appliances, granite countertops, plentiful storage. Conveniently located across from the galley is a huge dinette that can seat many of your friends and family. The galley's breakfast bar opens into the spacious, tastefully decorated salon which features a large sectional sofa and abundant windows offering exceptional views and natural light. The aft deck can be accessed from here via a door on the starboard side.

Forward in the wheelhouse, you can go down a short stairway into the accommodations. In this area, there are four full staterooms, each with its own ensuite head. The private master stateroom is all the way aft featuring a centerline, king-sized berth and a large dressing room.

Finally, the large flybridge can be accessed from the wheelhouse by climbing up a ladder. The flybridge is fully covered by a bimini and has built-in seating for entertaining your friends and family while enjoying spectacular 360 degree views!

Wheelhouse

Hatteras flush deck wheelhouses are hard to beat. They have excellent visibility, plenty of vertical dash space to flush-mount the navigational electronics and sliding pilothouse doors port and starboard. These doors allow direct access to the forward side decks, making single-handed docking a breeze. From this area you will find a ladder leading to the large flybridge, a doorway leading to the galley and a stairway leading to the accommodations.

Galley

From the wheelhouse, if you move aft through the door, you will enter into the large, luxurious galley. The space takes advantage of the full beam of the boat. All the appliances are updated stainless steel. Granite countertops are complimented by recently installed backsplashes. The windows in this area open and have screens. The galley is separated from the spacious salon by a breakfast bar. A large dinette is located conveniently next to the galley where the chef can visit with family and friends while cooking a feast.

Master Stateroom

The master stateroom occupies the aft 1/3 of the lower deck. It is one of the largest you will find on any 65' yacht. It features a walk-around, king-sized bed with custom mattress, a large dressing room with sink and vanity, lots of hanging storage and drawer space and an enormous ensuite bathroom with a Jacuzzi tub. There are plenty of opening port holes with screens. This is a beautiful stateroom!
