2024 Adonia Aurora Trip #11 (August 6 - August 12)

The 2024 Adonia Aurora is an 82-foot aluminum houseboat designed to accommodate large groups with multiple sleeping areas. The boat sleeps up to 24 adults across six cabin suites—two master suites with king beds and private bathrooms, two upper-level queen cuddies, two lower-level queen cuddies, and two kids' cuddies with entertainment systems. Additional deck sleeping includes an upper deck pad at the helm and two upper deck sofas with eight sleeping pads. A full bathroom pod on the upper deck features custom granite countertops and premium fixtures.

The interior is comprehensively appointed with a fully equipped galley offering service for 12, complete with a 66-inch stainless steel refrigerator-freezer, commercial ice maker, full-size range and oven, microwave, dishwasher, and trash compactor. The salon features a custom sectional sofa, and the boat includes a washer-dryer combo and central air conditioning and heating throughout. Starlink high-speed internet is installed, along with a custom 60-inch HD entertainment center with surround sound and ship-to-shore marine radios.

The upper deck offers a third-level sundeck with hardtop canopy and inset lighting, dual bars with sinks, dishwashers, microwaves, and ranges, plus eight barstools. Outdoor amenities include a front deck BBQ grill, extended swim platform with custom water stairs, a rear deck slide with water pump, and two personal watercraft ramps with winches. Screening wraps the front and upper deck.

Power comes from twin diesel MerCruiser 150 hp engines with Bravo II drives, supported by two 20 kw diesel generators. The 700-gallon diesel fuel capacity includes a separate 250-gallon toy tank with electric pump. Additional systems include a UVB fresh water processor, 780-gallon holding tank, windlass anchor system, 4000-watt inverter, 12-volt house battery system, backup camera, and complete navigation equipment.
