Deck and Tenders

Full shade over the deck thanks to the hard top (opening central section) or full sun can be found on the enormous and private sun pad forward of the bar. This area has a lot of unique features on this boat.

The bar design is fully fitted out with galley storage. Marble worktops complement the classic wooden bar and additional units with marble tops house and extra wine cooler.

The forward “roof” of the bar has a uniquely large, rectangular, panoramic window (sister ships have two small port holes). This window allows natural light back into the bar and also looks in keeping.

The private sun pad has two unique seats on either side with storage below. It also has a back rest that flips forwards when not in use or turns the leading edge of the sun pad into a comfortable bench.

All of this area has higher than standard stainless guard rails and is fitted with custom glass to make it private and safer.
