Wooden flooring has been milled to incorporate a 3D wave pattern inspired by the sensation of walking barefoot across ocean sand, designed to gently massage the feet and provide a sense of physical grounding as you move around the interior.

“ Nasiba’ s Owners had a very specific and particular brief for their yacht, not just in terms of the capability, functionality and layout that would be required to take their family safely and comfortably on an around-the-world adventure, but also in the many unique technical and interior details that would need to be incorporated to reflect their tastes and meet their approach to living, health and wellbeing”, comments William Yates of Seventy Blue, the broker that introduced and represented the Owners.“ CdM and Winch, with the support of the capable Owners’ team, have approached this with an amazingly creative and can-do attitude. This delivery marks the very successful culmination of all that hardwork and collaboration, and of the Owners’ daringly original and unique vision for their boat.”
