The main deck features a spacious salon and dining area, while the lower deck houses the full-beam master cabin and a VIP suite. An elevated helm position ensures excellent visibility, complemented by a secondary control station on the flybridge, which also offers a large sunbathing area and a 5-meter tender. This motor yacht is exceptionally well-equipped for long-range cruising, featuring a 24,000-liter fuel capacity and a cruising speed of 9 knots.
