Yacht Description
Classic Broward, refreshed. TRUE NORTH is a 118-foot Broward motor yacht built in 2000 and extensively refit in 2019, a sensible pick if you want classic lines with updated life in the spaces that matter.
Outdoor living, sorted. The flybridge is set up for actual use with al fresco dining and a wet bar, while the foredeck seating gives you a quieter escape when the group energy gets loud. Good deck flow. No gymnastics required.
Proper water access. Stairs down to the swim platform keep water days easy, and the toy list is geared for getting everyone off the boat: two Waverunners, towables, inflatable swim platforms, paddle boards, kayaks, snorkeling gear, and even underwater scooters.
Eight guests, four suites. She sleeps 8 in 4 en-suite staterooms, including a full-beam master with a king bed and his-and-her heads, plus two queen VIPs and a twin cabin. Stabilizers underway, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and a gym/exercise area help keep the routine (or the lack of one) intact.

Charter Reviews
The crew was wonderful-Captain Glen was very knowledgeable, highly personable and made sure we got to each island and activity at just the right time. Chef Claire was ultra talented and oh so sweet. It was astounding how she made one spectacular meal after another and made sure each meal was extra special. What a top notch team!
We loved snorkeling, feeding animals, seeing nurse sharks & hiking. Josh was fantastic in leading trips, knew tons about these areas & was great at sharing info with us. He's quite a lovely person and very talented at his job. We really enjoyed being with him. Ingrid was great at assisting him, hiked & snorkeled with us, and had such a warm & wonderful way about her. Michaela was so so sweet and very attentive to our every need. Ingrid & she provided non-stop service with a smile!
