SERENITY offers an exceptionally open and airy layout, providing several comfortable and inviting living spaces throughout. Upon entering the salon through double teak and glass doors from the large covered aft deck, you'll find a well-appointed entertainment center to port, with a large sofa, loveseat, and coffee table to starboard. The forward dining area complements the space, and the entire salon is surrounded by expansive windows, allowing for ample natural light and panoramic views.
Moving forward to starboard, a stairwell leads to the owner and guest staterooms. The full-beam owner’s stateroom is located aft and is fully ensuite with separate his and her heads. Forward, there are twin guest staterooms, each with a queen-size bed and ensuite heads for added privacy and comfort.
Back in the salon, you can walk forward on the port side, passing the generously sized athwartships galley, and ascend a few steps into the pilothouse. The pilothouse is equipped with a centerline helm and captain's chair, flanked by a small dinette to starboard. To port, there’s a conveniently located day head. Access to the side decks is made easy via doors on both port and starboard, and there’s a central companionway leading to the flybridge for seamless movement between spaces.
To the port side of the pilothouse, stairs lead down to the crew quarters, which feature a small dinette, two spacious crew cabins, a laundry area, and a second full galley.
The engine room is a standout feature, offering full-height walk-around space. It can be accessed through a door from the cockpit, via the large lazarette, or through a hatch in the aft deck.
Outdoor areas are equally impressive, with the flybridge deck being large enough to comfortably accommodate 20 or more guests, perfect for entertaining. The bow, aft deck, and cockpit are also generously sized, providing plenty of space for relaxation, outdoor activities, and easy access to the water.
