Accommodations

The guest quarters are masterfully laid out. Most notable is the yacht's full-beam master stateroom, located below deck aft. It features large windows, tons of storage, a supremely comfortable King bed, a vanity desk, and a settee. Directly across from the bed, is a Vizio flat-screen television, with Bose speakers lining this extraordinary stateroom.

Leaving the master stateroom, one finds a twin-bed guest cabin to starboard. This is the perfect stateroom for any children on board. Opposite this cabin is the third guest stateroom, featuring a queen bed and ensuite arrangement (also serving as the day head). All the way forward is the surprisingly spacious ensuite VIP cabin. All staterooms are marked by abundant natural light and a continuation of the light oak wood & abundant leather motif found throughout. Moving from the main deck to the below decks feels nothing if it is not seamless.

Salon

Upon entering the main salon through the sturdy stainless steel-framed doors of this 72 Absolute, one is instantly greeted by huge windows to port & starboard, filling the salon with an abundance of natural light. 

To port, one instantly notices a sprawling, leather-clad love seat & L-shaped sofa, with a charming marble coffee table situated within arm's reach of any seat. Directly across from the port-side seating is a retractable flat-screen television, which itself is situated directly behind the starboard-side three-person love seat. 

Five state-of-the-art Bose speakers encircle this lounge area, which can seat eight comfortably. The finest light oak wood can be found from floor to ceiling throughout this main salon.

To starboard is a dining table, made of light oak, in the same style as the rest of the salon, with seating for six. Moving forward, is the lower helm with two accompanying electric captains chairs to starboard. To port, is yet more storage (you can never have enough!) and a delightful nook, perfect for curling up and reading a book or conversing with the captain. 

  • L-shaped Sofa with Matching armchair & Love Seat
  • Bose Surround Sound System
  • Pop-up Flat Screen Television with Electric Lift
  • Dining table with Seating for Six
  • Port & Starboard-side Art & Objets Display

  • Heavy-duty Sea Door with Push-Button Locking Mechanism
  • Central Vacuum System (throughout the yacht)
Galley

Moving forward, there is a galley to port, with everything one would need for an extended stay on board - from an over-the-top AEG refrigerator with built-in wine storage, to a Bosch stove top and super-efficient dishwasher & microwave (also Bosch). A small Corian-and-glass-covered island with storage is the galley's centerpiece. A stainless steel sink rounds out what is a stylish, yet utterly functional, galley area.

  • AEI Refrigerator, Wine Chiller, Freezer and Built-In Ice Maker
  • BLANCO Stainless Steel Sink
  • Electric Window (Perfect for use while cooking or simply for airflow purposes)
  • Bosch Microwave

Aft Deck

Virtually any owner or guest will spend significant time on the aft deck. With its large settee and accompanying teak-covered table, as many as eight guests can be seated comfortably. At the push of a button, an electric privacy shade can prevent the sun, and any prying eyes, from intruding on you & your guests. 

Making full use of the 18' 4" beam, the aft deck is nothing if not an entertainment space. Fusion speakers, advanced LED lighting, and the rich teak at one's feet make sure of that. On a more functional note, the yacht's captain will appreciate the starboard side Joystick Docking station and abundant storage found on this deck. 

  • Twin windlass stations port and starboard
  • Aft deck Joystick Control for easy docking
  • Additional access to the engine room through hatch
  • Walk-around side decks
  • Control board behind glass panel
Swim Platform

There's a reason that a hydraulic swim platform is such a highly-coveted option - it makes dropping a tender or jet ski into the water so much simpler. The factory-installed swim platform is an integral part of the vessel. With direct access to the crew head & shower, the swim platform serves as more of a "beach club" area than anything else.

  • Hydraulic passerelle (built into the starboard stairs)

Flybridge Equipment

The flybridge is far larger than one could reasonably expect. Covered in teak, and laden with seating & sun pads for a dozen guests, this flybridge is one of the highlights of the yacht. A massive U-shaped settee and fold-out teak dining table, guarantee that al fresco dining for 8 to 10 guests is always a possibility (weather permitting!). 

A well-equipped wet bar with grill, ice maker, refrigerator, and sink allows for easy, quick service. Three forward sun pads and two aft chaise lounges are perfect for any sun worshippers on board. The hardtop's sunroof can bring shade - or intense sunlight - with the push of a button.
