S/Y DESTINATION
They say it’s about the journey and not the destination, and sailing yacht DESTINATION surely proves this maxim. Take one look at her unique layout, with a welcoming foredeck lounge that invites leisurely relaxation or the cozy lower saloon primed for cinema nights, and it’s clear it doesn’t matter where the journey takes you when you’re on this beautifully crafted vessel.
Launched by Alloy Yachts in 2003, 41m (134’6) charter yacht Destination features a luxurious interior by Redman Whiteley Dixon and a sleek exterior by Dubois. This luxurious fast cruising sloop is a proven Bluewater machine, built for trans-atlantic range, so you always feel safe on board.
Beyond this, Destination is all about comfortable and stylish cruising with family or friends, boasting impressive leisure and entertainment facilities that make her the ideal charter yacht for socializing and entertaining.
The aforementioned foredeck lounge is of particular note. This sumptuous lounge area has a a curve of seats facing forward and is filled in with sun pads and cushions, making it the ideal place to catch some sun – or it can be covered by an aesthetically pleasing sun shade.
Destination is not wanting for excellent al fresco areas to unwind – the aft deck seating area is equally inviting, with the port side featuring a large lounging area, all covered by a substantial Bimini with fold-up curtains at the ready. The transom folds down to expose wide steps and a generous boarding and swim platform, with custom-built ladders for easy water entry. A new lighting system has been installed on the steps and a shower added.
There is much that is new on this yacht, in fact, as she received a World Superyacht Award in 2012 for Best Refitted Yacht. The refit saw the new lower salon remodeled and a 63” TV added, which makes this space ideal for the family to gather for movie night. All the dining tables were upgraded, and the helm systems and electronics received an upgrade as well.
Eight guests are accommodated in four cabins, including a full beam master with a king-size bed, large wardrobes and lounge. The master stateroom office provides the perfect venue for work to be handled in peace with a desk facing outboard to enjoy the ocean views. Guests and family will be comfortably accommodated in the three staterooms, each with a TV that’s linked to a central media server with large selection of movies.
The interior is luxurious, with dark toned woods complemented by cream coloured carpets, soft furnishings and marbles. The interplay of neutral tones creates a relaxing, high-end interior that makes you want to kick back and stay a while.
An ideal yacht for family fun, Destination has many toys on offer, including four sets of scuba gear, fishing equipment, water skis and wakeboard, kayaks, paddle boards and a variety of towable. She is accompanied by two tenders, a 5.9m Smuggler and a 3.1m crew tender.
Whether looking for an entertaining getaway for the family or a luxe lounge for friends, sailing yacht Destination is the ultimate journey’s end.
