Her interior was described as "over the top" for her day, and she originally contained two full beam fore and aft staterooms along with a small "emergency stateroom" or starboard mid stateroom. Eventually, the full beam aft stateroom was split, and another ensuite head was added to make SOVEREIGN the four-stateroom yacht she is today. Her original Carpathian elm burl and Brazilian rosewood is still visible and in beautiful shape in the staterooms and the main deck/salon still features modern and crisp white paneling. Much like her first furnishings, she features sleek contemporary mid-century modern furniture offering bright pops of color throughout. Her aft deck was appointed with unusually deep lounge seating surrounding the table.
It is very rare to come across a yacht that has had such fantastic continuous care and updates throughout all her owners. SOVEREIGN is in beautiful condition and needs to be seen to fully appreciate all that she has to offer. She is highly recommended by her broker.
