Motor Yacht ‘Sweet Escape’ Returns to Charter Market After Major Refit

By Rebecca Bradbury 18 January 2017

The 40m/130ft luxury yacht ‘Sweet Escape’ from US shipyard Christensen will make her return to the Bahamas charter fleet in late March once her refit has been completed.

Now under new ownership, Sweet Escape is currently in the shipyard, undergoing a range of changes and upgrades to make her an even more attractive charter choice.

A key part of her transformation is the conversion of an old gym into a sixth stateroom, designed to sleep children or a member of staff. Located on the lower deck, the new cabin will feature a single bed and a Pullman, and will share its en suite with the port-side convertible cabin.

The new stateroom will bring the number of guests she can sleep up from 10 to 12, and will join a second convertible cabin as well as two double cabins on the lower deck, a VIP suite on the bridge deck and a master suite on the main deck. Such a layout makes her ideal for a family yacht charter.

Other renovations taking place in the interior include the addition of a day head in the main salon, the remodelling of all of the en suite bathrooms, and the installation of new air conditioning units, bridge equipment and state-of-the-art entertainment systems.

The exterior of charter yacht Sweet Escape, meanwhile, will see an aft swim platform extension, a new davit crane to stow two Jet Skis on the bow, and new soft furnishings in shades of turquoise, navy and white.

To make the most of her enlarged swimming platform and her tropical cruising grounds, the motor yacht is equipped with a vast collection of water toys, ranging from underwater scooters and kayaks to an inflatable water slide, fishing gear and scuba diving equipment.

Other highlights include a sundeck Jacuzzi, ample areas for alfresco dining and lounging, and an interior decorated with the finest textures, fabrics and natural materials for serene, understated opulence on your island-hopping adventure in the Bahamas.
