First Light

A 65-foot express built for a Florida family moving up from a 52-foot Cabo, and at launch the largest express built in North Carolina. Two and a half years in the building, she carries a 9-foot salon overhead and an interior of horizontally laid quarter-sawn walnut and hand-stitched leather wall tiles, the interior her builder calls its most memorable.
