Broker Comments
Latitude was German built as an Ice Class supply boat (OSV), converted and refit 2003 thru 2006 into a fantastic Expedition yacht with a first class yacht interior. Her interior designer was Claudio Bernardes, a famous Brazilian architect. She has recently returned from an extended three year exploration and fishing adventure in Tahiti and the far Pacific. Designed for long range, global adventuring, LATITUDE is currently configured with a 42′ and 28′ catamaran sport fishermen plus 3 other tenders and a wide array of toys of all kinds. Fish for world records, surf, dive, explore. Relax in the 40,000 gallon fresh water swimming pool. The cranes can handle most submersibles. Clear the decks and land a mid size helicopter (EC 155) or create your own globe trotting mission oriented configuration.
The Grand Salon Deck is luxuriously comfortable in Brazilian Cedar with ample storage done with warm, excellent joinery. An owner’s galley to die for joins the common salon and dining area, all opening to the pool deck. The owner’s suite is above and behind the bridge and has panoramic views with separate owner’s office, walk-in closet, large marble bath and balcony overlooking all the action. On the main deck below the Grand Salon Deck are five guest staterooms with ensuite baths. The generous Captain’s cabin is joined by the Captain’s office on the man deck aft and seperate from the guest. The crew galley and crew mess are on the main deck aft. The lower deck is dedicated to crew, laundry and machinery.
