Aft Deck & Cockpit

Where the boat opens up.

The aft deck can transform from a defined space into part of a larger living environment. Sliding galley doors disappear almost entirely from view, seamlessly connecting the saloon and cockpit into one expansive social space. Like the on-deck owner’s suite, the space can adapt to the moment, while the suite’s independent entrance remains fully accessible regardless of the saloon door position.

Where comfort meets control

The twin aft helms place key sailing controls at the operator's fingertips, delivering a more direct, engaging connection to the boat and the conditions around it. From either helm, the smart glass can be instantly cleared to provide unobstructed visibility, ensuring safety and 360-degree sight lines from anywhere on deck level.

Adventure without compromise

Featuring a hot and cold shower with an Elna shower pole, creating a practical transition space between life on the water and life aboard. Integrated within the aft deck storage, a dedicated Scanstrut inflation system allows wing sails, paddle boards, and other recreational equipment to be quickly inflated and deflated for effortless deployment and stowage.
