Forward on the main deck, expansive windows frame ever-changing vistas of rugged coastlines and serene inlets. Settle into a deep armchair with a steaming mug of local coffee, perhaps spotting a pod of orcas breaching in the distance. The hushed atmosphere, punctuated only by the gentle rhythm of the ocean, invites quiet contemplation and shared moments of awe as the landscape unfolds before your eyes.

Aft Deck Al Fresco
The spacious aft deck transforms into an idyllic setting for open-air dining. Beneath the shelter of the deck above, a substantial table is laid with crisp linens, awaiting the day’s fresh catch. The scent of salt air mingles with the aroma of expertly prepared cuisine, creating an immersive sensory experience unique to yachting. Evenings here are bathed in the soft glow of subtle lighting, perfect for recounting the day’s adventures.

Upper Deck Serenity
Ascend to the upper deck, where an expansive open area provides an uninterrupted vantage point. Here, sun loungers beckon for moments of repose, allowing you to bask in the warmth of the sun or lose yourself in a compelling novel. The fresh breeze invigorates the senses, offering a profound connection to the surrounding natural grandeur, far from the distractions of the shore.
03 · On the water
The Main Salon
Step into a welcoming main salon, designed for convivial gatherings and relaxed evenings. Plush seating arrangements invite conversation, perhaps over a perfectly mixed cocktail from the discreet bar. The interior, though classic in its design, offers a comfortable and unpretentious elegance, providing a warm refuge after a day spent exploring the wilder reaches of the Pacific Northwest.
