The flybridge is huge and features easy access from the aft cockpit via a molded fiberglass staircase in lieu of the usual ladder. The walk-thru flybridge also has easy forward bow access via another staircase located centerline and forward of the flybridge. This feature means you don’t have to navigate side decks to go forward for line handling. The walk-thru flybridge also features an adjustable captain's chair, (1) forward and (2) aft settees for plenty of guests, a wet bar with sink and a cocktail table that stores out of sight. The large L-shaped helm station IS IMPRESSIVE!
This is the kind of boat where you can step aboard, leave the dock and stay aboard for days—or months. The generous interior, multiple living areas and extensive cruising equipment make her especially attractive to buyers who aren't just looking for a boat, but a lifestyle.

Comfortable enough to live aboard. Capable enough to cruise. Equipped to explore.
Come see why the owners called her their “floating condo.”
