Layout of Deck Floor Plans:

• The exterior deck plans feature a waist-high Portuguese bridge that extends around a raised pilothouse and opens on centerline to a foredeck with anchoring bow sprit and stainless steel handrail enclosure.  Bulwarks with hand rails extend around the covered aft deck and the side deck walkways.  A swim platform and transom door provides boarding access to the aft deck at the stern, and port and starboard bulwark gates allow dockside entry to the side decks.  At the aft deck a built-in stairway with handrail provides safe assent to an upper boat deck fitted with stainless steel hand rails, an electric lifting davit for an Avon RIB 4.7 Meter center console tender, a removable portable hot tub, and canister life rafts mounted port and starboard.  The pilothouse roof is forward of the boat deck and up one step, it is fitted with an easily accessed antenna mast and antenna mountings. 
• Entry to the deckhouse is from three heavy-weather doors: One at the aft deck enters the main salon, and port and starboard at the Portuguese bridge two doors enter the raised pilothouse.
• The aft deck entry opens to the main salon with expansive seating and dining areas.  At the forward end of the main salon is a countertop dining bar with fixed stool seating that faces a semi-enclosed galley to forward. 
• Forward of the galley and up two steps is a huge pilothouse with helm chair, a long settee, and a pilot’s berth.
• A companionway at the galley leads down and forward to a lower deck foyer with access to four cabins:  A cabin fitted out for use as a private office, a guest stateroom with twin berths and guest head, a VIP guest stateroom with walk-around queen size bed forward, and aft and down three steps a full beam master stateroom positioned below the galley and salon. All staterooms and companionways are attractively carpeted. 
• At the aft end of the main salon is a stairway to the aft portion of the lower deck.  This companionway provides access to the maintenance and utility / laundry room, and entry to a full beam engine room with standing headroom.

Accommodation Descriptions:

• Master Stateroom:  Luxurious, tastefully appointed, and safe. The master stateroom has two watertight doors, one aft for entry into the utility/engine room, and one forward for entry at the companionway. This spacious stateroom is larger than seems possible to fit on this size yacht. A walk around king size bed is on centerline, and the abundant stowage includes four sets of double hanging lockers, two full sized built-in dressers (five oversized drawers each), and two nightstands with three drawers each. And additional lockers and plentiful bookshelves.
  Attached to this cabin is a full size ensuite head with shower and Jacuzzi tub.
  Note: The main bank of 8D batteries is accessed beneath the berth in the Master Stateroom.
• VIP Stateroom: The forward guest stateroom could be easily mistaken for the master suite. Fitted with a double size walk around berth, numerous full size hanging lockers, abundant stowage, drawers, and bookshelves, the cabin will make guests quite comfortable. And could serve very nicely for the couple that is most at home with separate his and hers master accommodations.
• Guest Stateroom: The guest cabin has two twin size Pullman berths, hanging lockers and stowage drawers. This cabin serves as a very comfortable guest or crew cabin. Its versatility also allows for use as an exercise room or for additional office space.
• The Guest Head: Located at the lower deck foyer to starboard, this head serves the guest and the VIP staterooms, and it is well positioned for convenient service as the common day head. It is equipped with a full size stall shower, vanity with Corian countertop, and ample storage space.
• Office Cabin: The office is fully equipped for tending to business from distant waters. It has a built in desk and also contains the Tank Level Monitoring System for the five fuel tanks, and the fresh water and black water tanks.
• Main Salon: The main salon presents a spacious and inviting living space that is tastefully decorated, comfortable and abundant with natural light. To starboard of the aft deck salon entry is a large built-in settee and dining table. The dining table is custom built with sliding mechanisms that allow for the table to glide inward/outward as well as up and down. Across from the dining settee is an enclosed entertainment center that includes Sony audio and video equipment with a Bose surround sound system and a large pullout liquor/wine cabinet.
  Opposite is a built in settee and cocktail table (portside) and three built in stools at the galley counter for simple dining, buffet or owners breakfast/lunch, and more cocktail seating.
• Pilothouse: Positioned a few steps up and forward of the main deck salon and galley area, the raised pilothouse can be accessed from the interior or from port and starboard sliding doors to the Portuguese bridge. Roomy and with good visibility, the large state of the art pilothouse is nicely thought out and well equipped for transoceanic voyages. Extensive built-in cabinets counter tops and drawers provide ample storage for keeping the navigation charts, hand held equipment, ship’s logs, manuals and records readily at hand and well organized. Comfortable accommodations for helmsman and guests include a long settee with a raised pilots berth above and a commercial grade helm chair with armrests.
• Portuguese Bridge: To address encountering heavy weather while underway a Portuguese bridge provides safe access to the foredeck and gives the pilothouse added structural protection from any seas that manage to break over the bow. Additionally the five forward facing windows are made of 1/2" thick tempered glass fitted with internal electric heating elements, and the three front facing windows are mounted at a downward facing angle that deflects glare, allows maximum visibility, and minimizes potential of impact from a rouge sea. In short, at the helm of the 'Dream Chaser' one is secure and well prepared to follow their dreams throughout the oceans of the world.
• Construction: This yacht is hull #4 that was built by the Cape Horn Trawler Corporation’s Theriault Yard located in Nova Scotia, Canada.  Constructed of welded schedule A36 steel plate, the trawler style hull design features a V-shaped bottom with hard chines and twin stabilizing keels (fitted port and starboard), a bulbous bow below the waterline that is fitted with a bow thruster, a modified semi-canoe shaped stern section, and a massive box-beam keel on centerline that provides a very substantial stem to stern backbone and solid protection in the event of grounding.  

Listing Agent Remarks:

While one expects the abundant all-business safety features that the Cape Horn Trawlers are renowned for, this particular Cape Horn also qualifies as an exquisite luxury yacht. Professionally decorated, the ambiance is one of refined elegance. Throughout the interior light Canadian maple paneling with inlaid banding reflects a warm golden glow; large panoramic windows present the changing views as though fine art, and customized lighting enhances the overall interior warmth with halos of brightness. Luxury refinements and function are coordinated with one another in all areas of the yacht, from the sound-proofing lead underlay beneath all of the plush carpeting to watertight doors encased in solid maple with the finish of fine furniture.
Throughout the interior joiner work is the highest quality, built in furnishings are tastefully inlaid with dark filigree accent lines, and the Canadian maple paneling has been given a furniture grade finish. Upholstery in the main salon is a butter soft tan leather, the main interior deck flooring is “Marine Deck” by Marquipt, and the galley sole is finished with Italian tiles.
