Description:

Naval Architect Jule Marshall founded Navigator Yachts in 1987; however he had been building
the highly regarded \"Californian\" line of yachts since the late 1960's.
A hallmark of his designs are hulls that get up on plane quickly with smaller, more economical
engines. Another feature is the 360 degree visibility from the helm which allows a couple to
operate the vessel without any other assistance; there are two ways to access the bow from the
cockpit, either along the narrow port and starboard walkways with grab rails, or going through
the salon and out through the sliding door on the starboard side of the pilothouse.
By widening the salon out to nearly the full beam, the design makes the best use of interior
space, yet still allows for a narrow walk around deck. A good compromise between practicality
and comfort.
The hull is solid fiberglass, no coring material is used in the hull. Another excellent feature of
the Navigator is the use of aluminum stringers and beams for floor support, which is much
lighter and stronger than wooden members used by most other builders. The insulation is
exceptional and affords the quietest boat ride you will ever have!
