MARI-CHA III represents a giant leap in design and technology, as she was designed asa supremely comfortable yacht that is also the fastest of her class. MARI-CHA III was conceived and constructed as light and solid as possible, without compromising safety aspects. The toughness of her Carbon Kevlar sandwich hull exceeds that of comparable aluminum hulls.MARI-CHA III is a Super Yacht of distinction aboard which her guests can cruise comfortably as well as entertain in style and luxury. She will draw attention at any anchorage with her sleek hull and huge ketch rig, that also gives enormous benefits in terms of speed, weight to sail area ratio and efficiency. Her speed under sail and power warrants fast passage making from one anchorage to the next, fun sailing, and allows for more time to explore, dive and enjoy all aspects of cruising.

MARI-CHA III offers alarge master stateroom with en suite head, a smaller guest stateroom with upper andlower berths, and two double guest staterooms with en suiteheads.

MARI-CHA IIIs interior has been carefully selected with the finest of luxurious accoutrementsincluding marble surfaces, beautiful fabrics, objet dart, etc. All panelling (over lightweight Nomex core) and frames are executed in thin veneers of Hondruas Mahogany. The interior of the boat and her state-of -the-art entertainment system have been updated to reflect the latest in modern technology.

MARI-CHA IIIs pilothouse includes all the necessary navigation and communication equipment, and also two comfortable benches for relaxation and enjoyment.
