the wheelhouse as well as the sundeck. This meant changing the normal continuous crew stair but the solution also offers some
privacy to the captain and wheelhouse. The style of the owner’s suite is rich and quite classic with walnut and leather panelling,
but the furniture is modern and eclectic. The bathroom is an explosion of back lit blue and white onyx.
The second feature is the double height main salon or ‘atrium’. This was a feature the client had requested from the very beginning and though you lose some floor area above, the overall feeling of height and space is simply unique in a yacht of this
size. The quality of light in the main salon is very comforting, with indirect light coming from above as well as from the full height
windows on main deck.
The third unique feature on a yacht this size has to be the spa area on the lower deck. On the sister ship Talisman C this area
housed four good sized guest cabins so to give this over to a spa was a brave and challenging feature. The style is unashamedly
Asian, with teak and limestone giving a warm and tranquil area. In terms of performance and capabilities, she has a cruising
speed of 15 knots, maximum 17 knots, steel hull and aluminum superstructure with a 4m (13”1” ft) draft and 12.23m (40”1”ft)
beam. She can house 14 guests, 19 crew and has 7 cabins. The yacht was built by Proteksan Turquoise in Turkey.
