Accommodations

"Echoes" has a three stateroom, three head layout with a seperate crew quarters and head. She was built with an optional private stairway from the salon to the owner's suite, in addition to the stairway down from the helm deck to the VIP and Guest Staterooms. She also has direct access via an interior stairway to the engine room from the salon.

The aft deck and walk around decks are wide and protect all the way forward to the Portuguese bridge. Decks are teak with a cap rail of high gloss varvished teak which was revarnished in June 2023. Stairs from the aft bridge lead up to the flybridge and dingy deck which feature a 1200# stainless steel davit for launching the 11' Waker Bay RIB tender. The flybridge is protected by a fiberglass hardtop and an EZZ2CY enclosure. Two L-shaped seating areas each have their own dining tables. At the helm are two Stidd Helm Chairs and a full Garmin Electronics suite and a Yacht Controller remote.

From the flybridge helm deck heading down the interior stairs, you arrive at the lower helm deck and galley. A single Stidd chair sits centerline at the helm providing control of the boat and navigation equipment. Opposite the flybridge staircase lies the large galley which is well equipped with Sub Zero fridge/freezer drawers, a Sub Zero wine cooler, Fisher Paykal dishwasher and gas stove. Countertops have teak fiddles.

The main salon is a few steps down from the galley and is configured to feel like a much larger yacht. The deletion of formal dining allowed for the addition of the owner's stairwell and a larger setee in the salon. The salon features two Stressless chairs to port and a 50" Sharp 4K Smart UHD TV that raises electronically from a port side cabinet when desired. Interior soft goods were replaced in 2018. Just forward of the salon entrance from aft deck on the port side is a stairwell that leads to the Crew Quarters and engine room, allowing for engine checks day and night without having to step outside.

The Master Suite, located midship, can be accessed from the owner's private stairwell in the salon or the main stairwell forward. Accommodations include a king sized  bed, a wall of full length lockers and a large "his and hers" head to port. An office and storage area are located at the aft end of the stateroom which also houses a full size washer and dryer behind louvered doors.

Forward of the Master is the Guest Stateroom with two crossover single beds and the VIP Stateroom with a queen berth. Both Guest and VIP staterooms feature ensuite heads and showers.

The Crew Quarters is aft of the engine room and can be accessed through the salon stairwell. The engine room offers abundant headroom and great access to all machinery for easy maintenance.
