The generous aft cockpit and the hydraulic " teak beach " are guest favorites.
companionship or communication while
driving. 2) Since the helm is at the main
deck level, it's easy to step out onto the
side deck to help with dock lines or to
get a better view along the starboard hull
when pulling into a slip. 3) The helm is
elevated so sightlines are good forward
and you can also duck under the Bimini
for a clear view of the port transom. 4)
There's separation between the helm with
the wheel and throttles, and the line handling
area with the winches, so multiple
crew can work together without getting in
each other's way. This helm station follows
improvements made on the 51-foot
sistership and even the smallest of details
were addressed such as the placement of
the autopilot that is now to the right of the
wheel for better access.
The Bimini has been put to good use
beyond just flybridge comfort. The builder
is focused on energy autonomy, especially
during extended stays at anchor, so a large
portion of the Bimini top has been dedicated
to the placement of integrated solar
panels. In fact, you can now choose to add
700-1700 watts of power which can keep
this cat self-sustaining for days. For those
who cannot manage the tropics without
air conditioning, there's also an optional
11.5 kW Northern Lights genset.
There's no shortage of gathering spots
The flybridge is 40% larger than before.
aboard and large groups will have plenty
of options to spread out. If the flybridge
isn't your thing, there's a triple sunbed on
the foredeck where to enjoy a good book,
or you can join the rest of the crew in the
large aft cockpit with its L-shaped dinette,
a wide transom seat and a double lounge.
A luxury feature you may want to consider
adding is the electric swim platform.
This can be a pricey option but it's worth it
for four reasons. 1) It can carry an 11-foot
tender without having to haul a heavy load
onto davits. 2) It allows a quick traverse
from one hull to the other without having
to dodge people in the cockpit. 3) It's a
wonderful teak beach where you can get
ready to go diving or snorkelling or play
with the kids. 4) It's a handy way to come
up from the water without having to use a
slick and narrow ladder. In fact, for kids,
pets or older folks with tricky knees, this
can be a lifesaver.
LIVING ABOARD
Step from the cockpit to the interior via
the wide sliding glass door which is now
20% larger so the airflow is better and
there's more room for people to pass. The
