This 78-foot motor yacht was custom built in 1995 by George Heisley, a founding partner of Christensen Yachts. The hull was designed by naval architect Tom Fexas, with interior and exterior styling by JC Espinosa, representing a modern interpretation of the Midnight Lace series. Twin Caterpillar diesel engines deliver 2,600 horsepower, enabling a cruising speed of 18 knots and a maximum speed of 23 knots.
The yacht accommodates guests across three staterooms—two owner and guest staterooms and one crew quarters—along with four heads. The layout reflects the original owner's preference for comfortable accommodation of an additional couple during extended cruising.
The fiberglass hull has been meticulously maintained throughout its life. The boat carries approximately 1,800 original hours and has had two careful owners since new. A dedicated captain has overseen the yacht's upkeep for the past 20 years, maintaining it to a high standard.
