Adkon, anagram for " A Different Kind Of Normal " is a reflection of her owners' vision of soft adventure in Paradise and its practical, comfortable and tasteful application.
After having scoured the market for more than a year for the appropriate boat, Nick and Debbie chose this magnificent 2006 Beneteau Cyclades 50.4 for her good bones, ample accommodation, proven sea kindly manners, and essential one couple ease of handling characteristics.
Given these fundamentals as blank canvas, the boat has been tastefully upgraded with high quality soft furnishings on deck, the main salon and cabins. Ample storage was pre requisite for a planned extended cruising adventure and Adkon has delivered.
Through a cyclical refit bringing Adkon completely up to date, featuring an off grid power management system, state of the art electronics, a capably powered bow thruster and the very essential deck canvas which provides a refuge in her well shaded patio sized cockpit, she has morphed into a totally modern correctly outfitted world-girdler !
We remind interested buyers that sailing in the Caribbean is predominantly an outdoor activity and shade on deck is indeed essential.
Below, one finds a bright, tastefully decorated, comfortably sized salon, with very important "Caribbean breeze ventilation" at anchor, abundant. Adkon is decidedly not a dockside darling !
She is set up for extended Caribbean cruising with precious off grid freedom.
Please refer to full details of the "nuts and Bolts " of her extensive systems and amenities refits, with a video for your viewing pleasure and owners personal comments for your review.
Thank you for your interest, and congratulations to you for being a candidate shopper for this wonderful cruising lifestyle of soft adventure.
Sincerely,
Reg Bates,
Your Caribbean Dream Merchant of 40 years standing
