The flybridge comes with a standard hard top with an opening roof and optional shading for the aft section, allowing customization for sun or shade as desired.
Cockpit and Foredeck
The cockpit maximizes space with cozy sunbeds close to the water, a teak dining table, and an electric privacy curtain. The hydraulic swim platform accommodates a tender, with convenient access to the crew quarters.
