Samsara Detailed Description |
Designed by Jon Overing, Samsara was originally started by (Chinese shipyard) to Lloyds by Maxi Marine. Maxi Marine stopped construction in 2003, and vessel and equipment were stored in a shed until purchased by Island Gypsy, a long-established trawler builder, which also purchased the Maxi Marine name. The vessel was finished by Maxi Marine/Island Gypsy in 2017 and classed by R.I.N.A. An interior in satin-finished cherry wood accommodates eight guests in four cabins consisting of a master suite, VIP suite, starboard twin, and port double, all with entertainment centers, Sony television screens, and en-suite bathroom facilities. In addition, there are quarters for four crew. The saloon comes with 2 three-seater settees, 2 armchairs, coffee tables, a bar, fridge, and an entertainment center including a 55" Sony television screen and a Yamaha stereo surround sound system. Forward is a dining area with seating for six guests and storage cabinets for china, glassware, and cutlery.
Alfresco entertainment and dining is available on the large aft deck offering a U-shaped settee, table, and chairs along with port and starboard stairs to the wide swim platform. More outdoor living is close at hand on the flybridge, with a bar, fridge, two L-shaped settees, and two tables, all sheltered from the sun by a custom aluminum hard top. 5 year Rina survey completed in March 2021 with Marshall Island PYLC.
