| Basic Details |
Dutch is a beautiful example of a bristol condition Marlow Explorer that
most yachtsmen would think was a new vessel. She has been impeccably
maintained and was upgraded and outfitted with the best available
equipment when she was built. With upgraded C-18 CATs and a full
hydraulic package she is built for the cruising couple that wants to
travel extensively. She can cruise 20+ knots all day or do 1500 miles
nonstop at 8 knots.
Rather than choosing to build a traditional
3-stateroom boat, this owner opted to build 2 extra large staterooms
with a bunk over the laundry area. This essentially gives you two master
staterooms each with its own large head and a berth for a 3rd guest
plus crew. The master stateroom is as you’d expect: palatial in size,
with his-and-her heads separated by a shower, plus four hanging lockers,
and a bureau with large liveaboard drawers. Using the full 18-foot
beam, the stateroom includes a settee so the owners can have their own
sanctuary. The VIP cabin forward has been greatly enlarged to provide a
second master suite with an oversized head and shower. The crew’s
quarters is also finished to the same level as the guest areas, which
can be used as another stateroom or storage area. It has two comfortable
single bunks plus a private head with a shower. The crew cabin has a
separate entrance from the cockpit. The salon is warm and inviting, with
large windows and meticulous joiner work everywhere. There is a desk
built into the forward corner complete with a file drawer, so one can
work with a view, if necessary, while cruising. |

| General Arrangement |
This 61E MK2 has beautiful lines and is equipped with Twin Disc Quick
shift transmissions with trolling valves make for easy maneuvering. This
is augmented by an Italian-made Xenta VMA Plus joystick that neatly
merges the conventional prop system with hydraulic Side-Power bow and
stern thrusters to give this Marlow Explorer pod-like dockside
maneuverability. The matching joysticks on the bridge and in a foldout
cockpit docking station and an additional remote joystick gives complete
and easy operational flexibility. This system has the “Skyhook” feature
that will hold the boat in a position. It’s perfect for short-handed or
couple cruising.
As you step into the cockpit you will find a
nice bench seat with a good size teak table that can be set up with free
standing chairs to provide seating for 4-6 people comfortably. Upon
entering the salon and you will find a large built in seating area to
starboard and two comfortable recliner chairs to port. The forward wall
features a large TV and Bose Surround Sound System. There is a Subzero
refrigerator and sink in the salon as well.
Ascending 3 steps to
the pilothouse you have a galley aft, and a helm station and seating
area forward. The galley is well laid out and has excellent storage. The
feature of having the galley up will make the cook much more
comfortable at sea as this is an area of least movement and excellent
visibility. The galley has everything you need for an extended time on
board and offers plentiful counter space for preparation.
From
the forward starboard side of the pilothouse there are stairs that will
take you to the lower deck. As you descend to the lower deck you find a
semi-enclosed stateroom with a large cabinet beneath that houses the
washer and dryer.
Aft is the full beam master stateroom with his
and her heads. This is a stateroom that you would normally find on a
much larger yacht. It features a full king size bed, an abundance of
drawer and hanging locker space and is also full beam with port lights
in each side making the room feel very open. The port lights are
equipped with Shoji Screens for privacy and light diffusion.
Forward
is the VIP stateroom with a full Queen size berth and a very large
head. Any VIP guest will feel at home with this second master stateroom
and private head.
From the aft deck you can descend to the
cockpit stairs where you will find a crew cabin; of which, any family
member can comfortably enjoy as personal quarters. This cabin is fully
finished like the rest of the yacht and air conditioned. Additionally,
this room has its own head, shower, TV, closet, beverage refrigerator
and microwave.
From the aft deck or the inside stairs to the port
of the galley you can ascend to the flybridge. The flybridge features
two Stidd helm chairs and a full helm control station. There is also an L
settee with a large table. There is additional seating to port next to
the Subzero refrigerator, sink, and electric grill. |
| Exterior - Deck |
The cockpit has a nice built-in seat with a teak cockpit table. There is
seating for 6 if you add 3 deck chairs to the forward side of the
table. There are wing doors at the forward end of the cockpit, that when
closed, shield the aft deck from wind and spray on inclement days. The
side decks are wide and have high bulwarks and stainless-steel safety
rails allowing those that are helping tie the dock lines full safe and
secure. At the forward starboard side of the cockpit there is a flush
door that provides access to a slide out control station. This station
has a set of Glendinning engine controls, Sidepower thruster controls
and a Xenta Joystick that fully integrates these functions together
making docking very simple.
At the forward end of the pilothouse
the Portuguese bridge provides the working deck shelter from the wind
and seas. There is a very large storage compartment for fenders, lines,
or deck equipment. The forward center doors provide access to the
foredeck where you find the twin anchors, hydraulic Maxwell windlass,
fresh and salt water wash down, and port and starboard 50 A Glendinning
Cablemaster shore power cords.
The 1500 gallons fuel tank and water tanks can be filled from either side of the yacht.
The
boat deck has a 13' Boston Whaler dinghy and a 1,000 lbs Aritex davit
with Full hydraulic positioning and rotation- telescoping making
launching her safe and easy.
The swim platform is accessed via
port and starboard cockpit stairs. The swim platform also has a folding
swim ladder making getting in and out of the water very easy. On the
sides of the swim platform small doors house the port and starboard 50 A
stern Glendinning cablemasters, fresh and salt water wash down faucets,
oil change system discharge, and hot and cold fresh water hand held
shower. The swim platform is secured by removable stainless-steel
staples. The stainless steel cleats are oversized and recessed so you do
not snag your foot on them. |
| Main Salon |
When you enter the salon from the aft deck you feel the spaciousness of
the vessel's 18'2" beam with the salon and galley to the forward
windows. The tinted windows and Ocean Air Silhouette blinds allow for
just the right amount of light to enter the room. The aft salon entrance
is through a pair of large doors that can open fully to connect the aft
deck space with the salon. This door has Ocean Air Silhouette blind as
well to provide privacy when needed. The large settee to starboard is
upholstered in Ultraleather with two leather reclining chairs to port.
On the starboard side, forward of the settee, you will find a desk built
into the forward corner equipped with ample storage, complete with a
file drawer, so one can work with a view, if necessary, while cruising.
The overhead teak valance on the starboard side has slots that diffuse
the air-conditioning through the room.

| Galley/Pilothouse |
The pilothouse is up three steps from the salon and includes the lower
helm station, dinette and galley. There are port and starboard exterior
doors, a staircase forward that descends to the staterooms and a
staircase
on the port side aft ascends to the flybridge. The galley is very well
equipped with top-of-the-line appliances and plenty of storage for
provisions and housewares. The Galley is outfitted with 2 SubZero
refrigerator drawers, 2 freezer drawers, a Dacor glass top 4 burner
stove, a Sharp convection microwave, Franke stainless steel sink with
Grohe Faucet. There is plenty of storage for equipment and dry goods for
extended voyaging. With this galley up any cook will be more
comfortable underway with the ability to see forward. It is a great
asset for owner operator to prepare any meal and pilot the boat at the
same time in offshore conditions. Cruising couples should love this
space. The lower helm is a comfortable area, complete with Stidd helm
chair for the captain, that is next to a gorgeous adjustable teak
dinette table. The Ultra leather covered settee has large storage under
and is perfect seating for guests or copilot.

| Companionway |
| As you come down the stairs from the pilothouse you land in the
companion way. Forward is access to the VIP stateroom and aft are the
doors to the master stateroom. On the starboard side of the companionway
you will find a semi-enclosed stateroom with large cabinet that houses a
full size washer and dryer behind beautiful teak louvered doors. There
is a beautiful small teak cabinet in the companionway as well. This area
also provides access to the lighted pump room and fully painted utility
storage, where you easily can store guest luggage. |

| The master stateroom is a very elegant space. You walk in through the
double teak doors where you will find the king size bed with a Tempur-
Pedic mattress, two oversized drawers, symmetrical nightstands, mirrors,
custom reading lamps, bookcase, build-in TV and ample storage drawers
and hanging lockers. There is a settee to port with storage underneath
and a generous chest of drawers to starboard. The his and her heads are
located on either side of the master bed. The twin heads with their own
sinks and storage are separated by a large shared shower on the center
line that can be accessed from either side. Shoiji screens provide
additional privacy and defuse the lights. |
| VIP Stateroom |
| You enter the VIP from the companionway via solid teak doors. The bed is
elevated providing room for queen size berth. There are cedar hanging
lockers, storage drawers, and a built in "night stand" surface on either
side of the berth. One of the best features of this yacht's layout is
the large private head for the VIP stateroom with extensive storage area
underneath the sink and inside the shower. |
| Crew Cabin / Lazarette |
| The crew cabin is very self sufficient with a full head and shower, twin
bunks, microwave, refrigerator, TV, and a separate AC unit. The crew
cabin is entered from a cockpit stairway on the aft deck so the crew can
come and go without entering the salon for easy and safe access to the
engine room underway. |
| Engine Room |
| The engine room is well lit and air conditioned. The bilges are finished
white and have removable teak grates in the center bilge area. The
Caterpillar C-18 Engines are on stainless mounts that are set on Carbon
fiber engine beds to save weight. The TwinDisk Quick Shift transmissions
are connected to the Sea Torque oil filled shaft system. Stainless
Steel piping has replaced conventional hose where ever possible. Each
engine and generator has its own pair of Racore Marine Turbine Series
Fuel Filter/Water Separator fuel filters. The crossed connected sea
chest's seacocks are connected to individual strainers for easy cleaning
and additional debris protection. There are 2 intake and 2 exhaust fans
to cool down the space after running. The two AC chillers with titanium
coils are outboard of the starboard engine. The fuel tank is forward
separating and insulating the engine room from the living space forward.
The fuel tank has an industrial quality glass sight tube with bronze
shut off fittings. The water maker is outboard of the Port engine. Two
Onan 17kW generators are outboard and fully accessible. This 61E has
been thoughtfully equipped with everything from a Charles Industries
Iso-Boost transformer to an ultra- reliable 900-gallon-per-day Aqua
Matic watermaker from Sea Recovery, and well-equipped workbench in the
engine room, providing the perfect place for onboard tinkering. |

The yacht features two 50A cablemasters at the bow and the stern. You
can use both cables from the bow or stern or you can use one from the
bow and one from the stern. The yacht features a 3000 Watt
inverter/charger. The inverter runs the 110V house fresh water pump, all
the refrigerators and freezers, microwave, and all the 110V outlets.
The
shore power is connected to a Charles Iso Boost charger that will
filter the incoming AC power and it will raise low voltage dock power
when required. |
| Mechanical Systems |
| The Yacht is equipped with a full hydraulic system with a Hydraulic pump
on each engine that power the 30 HP bow and stern thrusters and the
stabilizers. The upgraded Twin Disk transmissions with trolling valve
function allows the system to run above idle speed for more hydraulic
power without increasing the prop speed. In addition to the conventional
engine and thruster controls the yacht has a Xenta Joystick at each of
the 3 helm control stations. The joystick allows you to move the boat in
any direction you indicate, and it automatically engages the
