Vessel Walkthrough:

Handcrafted joinery, rich finishes, and impeccable fit and finish create an atmosphere more reminiscent of a custom build than a production yacht. The open layout flows effortlessly between cockpit and helm deck, while climate-controlled comfort and generator power support extended cruising along the Eastern Seaboard, New England, Florida, or the Bahamas.At the helm, Volvo IPS 1200 propulsion with joystick docking and dynamic positioning transforms command into precision. Garmin glass-helm displays, integrated navigation systems, and exceptional sightlines offer complete operational confidence. The elevated helm seating invites guests to share in the passage, embodying the social elegance that defines the 66 Dirigo platform.Below deck, the accommodations rival yachts well beyond her class. The full-beam master stateroom with king berth serves as a private retreat, complemented by beautifully appointed guest staterooms designed for extended luxury cruising.

Every system onboard is engineered for reliability, from stabilization and propulsion to electrical and climate management, underscoring the yacht’s long-range capability and enduring value.On the foredeck, the wide walkaround design and secure anchoring arrangement make handling intuitive and safe.
