Elevation 机动游艇

Running Elevation yourself or handing her to a crew are both built into her design. Prestige delivered her in 2016 as a 23-metre flybridge motor yacht with four staterooms and a separate crew berth aft, so either arrangement suits her layout without alteration. She lies in Fort Lauderdale, in the United States.

Build and provenance

She is a monohull motor yacht with a fibreglass hull, and her engines were upgraded with powerful MAN engines after delivery from Prestige. At 23 metres with a beam of 5.5 metres, she carries more interior volume than her length alone suggests.

Layout and accommodation

Four staterooms sleep eight guests, led by a private master, and a separate crew quarters aft lets an owner bring on paid crew without giving up any guest cabin. Large windows light the salon and dining areas, and living space continues out onto the flybridge, foredeck and aft deck.

Performance and engineering

Two 2,400 hp MAN V8 engines drive her, upgraded from the standard fit and paired with an engine room laid out for owner-operators as much as professional crews. A hydraulic swim platform lowers to the water at the stern, for tenders and toys without needing a crane.

On deck and at anchor

On deck, sunpads give a place to lie in the sun, and the hydraulic swim platform doubles as a boarding step for swimming, tenders and toys alike.

Where she lies and how to see her

Elevation lies in Fort Lauderdale, in the United States. Boatcrowd sets up viewings and is present for each one, and after an offer is accepted, we schedule the survey and the sea trial that follow.
