1960 Custom Kristiansands Expedition Yacht Conversion

Dauntless is a Norwegian-built ship, converted into an exquisite expedition yacht. She has a full-displacement hull and low-revving diesels ideal for long passages in safety and comfort. Her twin Caterpillar diesels were chosen for their excellent fuel economy and durability. Dauntless features hydraulic stabilization, thruster and windlass. She has two davit cranes and two tenders. She is laid out with a spacious top deck master suite, a VIP cabin and two double cabins, all en-suite. There is also a crew area with galley/lounge, a head and three double crew cabins. Forward of the large and fully equipped galley is an adjacent lounge/library area. Below in the guest quarters area is a desk area for catching up on emails or lounging with one of the thousands of books, documentaries, CDs and movies in the digital library.

She was originally converted into a luxury yacht in 1996. The current owner, a Marine Engineer, executed an extensive refit of Dauntless in March 2006. No expense was spared in her conversion into a serious expedition-style cruising yacht and the cruising design characteristics and features will make cruising comfortable for your whole guest list.

Relax on her spacious aft deck for cocktails and then move to her formal dining area, with its beautiful 10 seat rich mahogany wood table. The flybridge is designed for excellent visibility, as well as socializing and gracious alfresco meals. With the tenders launched, the boat deck turns into an extended party zone and this deck is equipped with a sun lounge, a bar and a barbecue. Multiple social areas, including the foredeck and cockpit allow for many guests without feeling over-crowded.

She now needs paint and some new decking or non-skid. Call for details.
