I LOVE THIS BOAT Yacht Description
Sundeck, sorted. I LOVE THIS BOAT is a 145ft (44m) Christensen motor yacht (built 2002, refit 2023) that sleeps 10 guests in 5 cabins, and it leans hard into outdoor living with a vast sundeck featuring a deck Jacuzzi and bar. Big top-deck afternoons. Minimal decision-making.
Easy water access. A beach club and large swim platform keep the group moving between lounging and the sea without the usual traffic jam, and the aft main deck sets up well for alfresco dining with a wet bar right by the action.
Toy box with intent. Go full send on the waterslide, then rotate through two two-person WaveRunners, two Seabobs, towables, adult waterskis, wakeboard, kayaks, and SUPs. There is also deep sea fishing gear, plus a 33ft Boston Whaler and an 18ft Novurania for runs ashore and wider exploring.
Five-cabin layout. The primary suite is on deck with a king bed and an office, and below you have two queen cabins and two twin cabins, each with en-suite bathrooms and flat screen TVs with Apple TV, Direct TV, and Crestron control.

Reviews
Captain Chad, a special thank you to you and your crew for an outstanding charter with a raving review from the charterer:
She loves the vessel and loved the crew more. She said the Captain was professional and delightful, that he put a lot of effort and thought into each day and that the crew gave their heart and soul and Becca was the sweetest. She says they were fed like kings, they loved the food. She said the birthday cake and homemade cinnamon rolls were to die for. Water toys were all a blast. The slide was a 'hoot'. They had great fun with fishing and she would be delighted to consider booking again based on this charter.
Lee Lubbe Always a pleasure for me to work with WWB, thank you! If you get a booking on ILTB in Exuma's over July 4, reach out to me, she might consider booking again if the vessel is already positioned over there.
