Beautifully Customized. Incredible craftsmanship in the woodwork. Huge 7' headroom, walkaround engine room! A semi-custom, unique and spacious Motor Yacht to change the way you cruise the Puget Sound, Inside Passage, Alaska - and then turn south and get to Baja. The Long Range Cruiser You Are Looking For!
WESMAR ZERO SPEED GYROSCOPIC STABILIZER! NO UNDERWATER FINS! Perfect for exploring the Northwest!
From the aft owner's stateroom and VIP Stateroom - Fore and Aft of the Engine Space - to the forward over / under bunk staterooms for Captain, Crew or Kids, you will be swaddled in comfort as the seas calm your soul. And you're stability is assured due to Naiad Stabilizers that tames the rock and roll for superior comfort underway!
The engine space is centerline- full beam - and is incredibly spacious with 7' headroom for the twin Detroit Diesel 12V71-TI with just 4500 hours. 1750 gallons of fuel.
Large below decks offer incredible storage and a unique built-in map stowage / chart table area - all in beautiful hardwoods makes a place for everything and everything in it's place. There's even a large separate owner's dressing area with huge closet and storage space adjacent to the Owner's Head that must be experienced.
On the Flushdeck, the saloon combines an richly appointed lounging space with custom furnishings with an impressive and unique dining table - in the custom designed shape of a fishhook, in fact - that allows dining for 6 and also access to below decks.
The fantail also is custom and unique and provides a centerline door access to the ladder to the generous cockpit for fishing, entertaining and lounging. This makes this a different layout than the factory version of the 72 as most had a small aft deck off the aft above the cockpit. With this unique fantail shaped Saloon there is more indoor entertaining space (perfect for Pacific Northwest entertaining or Baja Days!).
We can go on and on about how wonderful this boat lives, it's visibility from the interior for exploring and cruising, it's Home Sized Galley with adjacent eating nook and massive flybridge with built in seating and boat deck area with 1500lb capacity crane - but a list of highlights and features don't do it justice. This Motor Yacht must be seen to be fully appreciated and can be with an appointment as she lies in Friday Harbor, WA.
