Breathtakingly Beautiful.

Boat Test #1737

By: Captain Christopher Kourtakis

I think my heart just skipped a beat as I did a double take. I may have just fallen in love with the Monte Carlo Yachts 70 Skylounge when it took my breath away. There is no other way to describe the lines, the design and the elegance that this yacht projects whether she is in the marina or on the water. If you want to turn heads, this is the yacht that will do just that.

Monte Carlo Yachts 70 Skylounge’s new spacious enclosed Flybridge is flooded with natural light. No matter what the season is, you will be traveling in style and comfort on this bridge. The helm is forward boasting confidence with the single helm chair and spaciously laid out displays and instrumentation. The plush seating that stretches the entire length of the port side is something that you would expect to find in your home and not on a boat. The all-white ambiance just screams classy and elegant from the white cabinets to the neutral flooring and light gray furnishings.

In the aft is the large double sliding stainless steel door that opens up to a teak lined platform that is perfect for your morning coffee.

The bow area is another reason the Monte Carlo Yachts 70 separates itself from others in its class. Teak wood throughout, spacious walkways, two large teak tables on either side of the enormous sunbathing area complete the open area. The lounger is big enough to hold ten plus people and is ready to party if you are.  

Stepping inside the cabin, the first thing that stands out is the glass stairway to the bridge. Wrapped in all stainless steel, these steps are open, clear and create an open-air feeling while adding functionality. The 360° view from the windows doesn’t make you feel like you are inside. The galley has a nice six-person glass dining table on the starboard side and immediate to the port is the galley that will make most home kitchens envious.

Stepping aboard this 70-footer gives you the look and feel of a 100ft yacht. The perfectly selected colors and furniture open every room on this yacht. The window design, whether you are on the bridge or the main level, allows natural light to flow through areas effortlessly. Powered with a pair of MAN V8 (1300 hp) power plants, this beauty cruises at 22 knots and has a top end speed of 26 knots. This yacht is beyond perfect for the Great Lakes and anywhere else you would like to cruise.
