111-Ft Deep-Sea Marine "Crystal"


This yacht has it all: Spectacular to look at, she can be compared to a floating luxury villa. Crystal features a jacuzzi on the bow, which is perfect for cooling off on hot days or for stargazing in the evening during week-long trips. The professional galley is big enough to allow large groups, and features an aquarium.

Crystal has a grand salon, featuring a fireplace, card table, dining area, luxurious furnishings and bar. The forward salon has large couches for watching TV—equipped with DVD, Xbox, extensive media library—or for listening to music.

Refitted in 2002, Crystal has the latest in satellite communications. It is extremely spacious, with a full-beam master suite with huge Jacuzzi tub and double shower; 2 mid-ship en suite VIP staterooms, five twins, plus crew’s quarters. Bedding is silk; the main cabin includes a mink throw. There are also plenty of areas to entertain, including two upper decks with teak lounges, sun umbrellas and comfortable furniture.

Scuba tanks and a dive compressor are aboard, as well as a professional divemaster upon request.

Crystal has a tender, ski boat, kayaks, snorkeling equipment, water-skis, and wake boards. It also includes everything you will need to fish, including a professional fighting chair. Full safety equipment is aboard, as are a complete range of medical supplies including a defibrillator and oxygen.

Anna and Ted Drummond are your hosts, with Ted at the helm. Anna, along with the other staff, is there to ensure everything is absolutely perfect for your trip. Ted Drummond has been specializing in all aspects of operations and maintenance of yachts up to 200 gross tons worldwide for over thirty years. Ted sails as captain in charge of operations and staffing. Anna sails as chief stewardess and ship’s purser. They have a deep background in customer service and they thoroughly enjoy interacting with the guests they serve—they are very familiar with the high standards required for a luxury yacht cruise. They have extensive cruising experience in many parts of the world. Some of the geographical areas in which they have cruised are the Pacific Ocean from Cabo to Alaska.

Quite frankly, there is nothing like the Crystal. Sometimes described as the "finest long-range sport-fisher on the west coast," it is the ultimate in yachting.
