YACHTS & YACHTING 51
Once you ’ ve arrived at a new bay or inlet , the Ocean Lounge becomes a centre for life on board . Reached down broad steps aft , this is a huge expanse of decking right on the water . Fold-down bulwarks and a lowering platform expand the space into an incredible 90-squaremetre sun zone or a launch-pad for swimming and watersports . There ’ s plenty of room to store two jet skis in the aft garage , along with a host of smaller toys from foilboards to Seabobs .
as well as sofas and a vanity table . Underfoot , the recessed woollen carpet is laid on super-soft Cloud 9 backing for the ultimate superyacht finish . Meanwhile , subtle mirrored panels overhead create a luxurious sense of volume .
A separate walk-in dressing area is accessed through a discrete sliding door , and the bathroom is divided by a frosted glass wall . An elegant sculptural bathtub and his ‘ n hers basins are the stand out features here , moulded in beautiful limestone-effect composite . Underfloor heating and even heated stone seating in the shower add refined comfort .
A further four guest cabins are laid out in the two hulls – three flexible twins / doubles and an even larger VIP , again with a super kingsize bed oriented athwartships . This is the choice of the guest accommodation , and features its own sofa corner and a his ‘ n hers shower room – both with generous storage . All the cabins offer fantastic headroom and a mixture of wardrobe and cupboard space .
Crew accommodation is also generous , with separate cabins for the captain and first mate and space overall for up to six crew . Service and access have been carefully thought through , to ensure the minimum with guests , so the galley and mess are accessed via discrete stairs located just outside the main saloon .
So many ways to relax Social space forms the heart and soul of the Sunreef 35M Eco , with the choice of indoor and outdoor areas for different activities . The saloon dominates the main deck , offering dining for eight , comfortable U-shaped sofas and a four-person bar . Generous headroom makes this a fantastic location for chilling with the family , entertaining close friends or throwing a party .
A four-panel glass door aft slides away completely to open this space up to the main aft deck outside . Flush decking gives the sense of seamless transition to the exterior saloon , where there is another bar , more casual seating and sunbeds aplenty . Here you can admire the anchorage or watch the ocean when under way .
But the biggest draw is undoubtedly the 100 square metre flybridge , which constitutes the boat ’ s most attractive exterior real estate . Owners can configure this deck as they please , with this first owner opting to preserve lots of open space for parties . All the same , there ’ s room enough for an elegantly curved five-place bar , cosy U-shaped sofas and a fantastic plunge pool surrounded with sunpads .
Efficient operator The twin helms are also up here , for any owner-drivers who like to get their hands on the sailing controls . With its towering rig and a generous sail area , the yacht will perform well on all points of sail , with fast passage speeds well into double figures . Although very much at home in the Mediterranean
