ACCOMMODATIONS

OVERVIEW:

The Euro transom features an extra-long swim platform with port and starboard stairways leading up to converge on a center entrance, fold-aside door, accessing the fully enclosed and air-conditioned Aft Deck.

On the aft deck to port, facing forward, is a full bartender’s L-shaped bar with three stools. The professional bar features a refrigerator, ice maker, sink and built-in blender and dispensers. Its counter is marble with a leather bolster. To the starboard and directly across from the bar, is a U-shaped, camel-colored settee with cocktail table and lots of decorative throw pillows. Going forward from the aft deck, through the open doorway in the center of an all-glass bulkhead, one enters the Main Salon, which is open to the dining salon forward. The color scheme here is gold and lively blues against all teak woodwork, which is in excellent condition throughout. The immediate port and starboard sides of the salon, feature L-shaped, neutral-colored leather settees. The port is the larger of the two and features a stylish wood and glass cocktail table and is framed by select antique side tables accessorized in brass nautical items and plenty of blue and neutral throw pillows. The smaller starboard settee actually wraps around the stairway to the Owner’s and Guest cabins. Forward of this settee, along the starboard side of the salon is the handsome, counter-height teak entertainment center with everything tastefully built-in flush. Forward of the salon, on the port side and center of the room, is the very tasteful and comfortable Dining Salon, incorporating a large table with four upholstered chairs trimmed in teak, and a large settee installed at an angle to the forward and starboard bulkheads. The arrangement is “totally neat” and roomy. The area also features an art alcove behind the center of the dining settee, with indirect lighting provided by an unusual window within the alcove, itself.

Walking forward from the dining salon, along the starboard side of the boat, you will find the main entrance foyer to the boat, which includes an on-deck Powder Room, trimmed in neutral-colored marbles and stone, and featuring an antique, chapel-top mirror.

Forward from the day head area is the all-teak Pilothouse and watch settee. Teak sole new 2003. This area is surprisingly uncluttered for a boat of this age, and still appears fresh.

There is plenty of flat charting area, and unusually deep windows, allowing for excellent visibility. The pilothouse has port and starboard doors, which access the side decks, and a stairway to the flybridge. Again, the area looks new and is very clean.

From the winding staircase in the aft starboard corner of the salon, one descends into the Foyer of the Master and Guest Staterooms. Aft is the unusually large Master Stateroom with its original teak woodwork, in beautiful condition.

On the starboard side of this room is the athwartship king-size berth with generous-size end tables and lamps. The bedspread is a quilted antique white, which matches the drapes and accessories. All the way aft is a chest of drawers, built into a mirrored alcove. The port side of the room is given to the vanity and extensive drawer storage. Also on the port side, forward, is the ensuite Master Head with its marble and stone trim and extra-long counter. The tub/shower combination is large and roomy. The walk-in wardrobe is to the starboard forward corner of the room and is well lit and cedar lined.

Proceeding forward from the foyer, one faces 2 identical port and starboard Guest Staterooms. These staterooms feature standard twin berths and ensuite heads with large counters and glass-door showers.

Sunset Rendezvous is a one-of a kind Broward layout, which features a windowed doghouse in front of the houseboat styled main deck. This type of styling allows the salon and dining spaces of a much larger boat. The area is just three steps down from the starboard side of the pilothouse, and accommodates the Galley and Dinette, similar to many Hatteras vessels, but much larger and brighter. The windows are over-size and afford excellent visibility, even from a seated position.

Galley equipment includes Modern Maid electric stove with oven and exhaust fan, GE double door refrigerator with water and ice through the door, GE compactor, Kenmore microwave, GE compactor, sink, marble counters, washer/dryer, 25-gallon water heater.

Forward of this area and down four steps is the redesigned Crew Quarters.

CREW ACCOMODATION:

The area accommodates 2 crew with over-size upper and lower berths and their own ensuite head w/separate shower. Here also, you will find the Coast Guard Certified collision bulkhead not found on any other standard Broward.
