THE DARK SIDE
Yacht for Sale

When entering from the spacious cockpit, you enter the light and bright salon. To starboard is a settee that accommodates 4 people and a sliding settee opposite that seats 2. Dinner for 6 is no problem!

Opposite the Stidd helm seats is an "L" shaped settee that is raised, allowing 3 people comfortable, raised seating.

The helm, with it's double Stidd seats, is comfortable for long passages and affords easily seen gauges. There is also a door outboard of the helm area which allows quick access to the side deck during docking.

Down a few steps and to port is the galley, and opposite is the owner's cabin with private head and shower

Forward through a passageway is the guest cabin with private head and shower.

The really interesting part of this overall design is the living space/workroom that is forward of the engine room. It is accessed by sliding the port settee in the salon forward, revealing a stairway to this area. There is a bed, for crew, if you like, and work space. Very unique!

The Dark Side has always been cared for by the excellent marina where she is docked. There are inspections performed when she is being commissioned and decommissioned. Battery checks and oil samples are done. During one of these inspections in 2023, leaks around the shaft seals were discovered. The gear cases were torn down, prop shaft hubs removed and she was given new shafts, and completely serviced. She has been monitored since and all is well.

Also, later in 2023, due to a possible lightning strike a distance away, she had an auto pilot module, CCM module and J Box replacement. Again, she was sea trialed, thoroughly tested and used...and works perfectly.

All this to say that she receives excellent care and monitoring.
