39 Ft Sea Ray at a Pretty Marina

Try something really different on your next vacation, live aboard a 1983 39ft SeaRay! The yacht is parked at a beautiful marina with lush landscaping, and is located in the artsy, Upper East Side of North Miami. Watch the dolphins frolic in the bay and lethargic manatees float by. Sunset/ sunrise takes on many beautiful canvases.

About living on a boat:
You are more in tune with the elements than when you are insulated by a house. The water rocks gently (it's a bay not open ocean so there are never high foot seas). The living room has a partial glass ceiling so you can watch the rain fall overhead (totally romantic, you have a better chance of seeing it during the summer months in Florida). You hop on and off the boat from a dock. As the tide changes your hop can be tiny or more noticeable. Around a full moon your hop becomes more of a climb on to the boat so please take this in to consideration! There are skid proof strips and a safety handrail for your protection. If you choose to sleep with the windows open the stars are right up above you and the bay breeze brushes your face. Spend a couple hours sleeping on the bow or stern and you'll appreciate the beauty of the outdoors. It truly is an experience to try at least once in your lifetime!

About the boat & the marina:
The main room has a private bedroom with an extremely comfortable bed which is decorated with fresh linens and sleeps 2 people. Port windows provide a calming water view. The side room has bunk beds that sleep 2 people (but we recommend only one on the lower bunk bed) and the living room has a convertible couch which extends to sleep 2. The boat sleeps 6 people but for your comfort max 2 will be allowed. There is a new, flat screened TV with cable included and DVD player in the living room. The bow is great for sunning and the aft comfortably seats 10 people. The kitchen has a microwave, refrigerator, sink & stove. It is equipped with plates, cups, silverware, glasses, coffee maker etc. There are brand new T-top covers on the boat so that you can sit outdoors and still be in the shade, or thick comfy seats for getting sun.

The boat has a tiny shower but the tank fills quickly and can create a soaking wet floor so we ask that you please use the marina shower and pool facilities that are footsteps away from the boat, near the lovely pool area. There is a hair dryer and clothes iron on board. There is a toilet on the boat and an additional bathrooms are located by the marina entrance and pool area (3 minute walk).

There is free wifi access on the boat ( the router is near the boat so the speed is great) and there is wifi throughout parts of the marina. The captain's lounge has ethernet access.

There is a coin operated Washer/Dryer at the marina, near the dockmaster's office.

Pool, hot tub, tree top style small gym, barbeque grills, tennis courts, bright pink bougainvillea plants, exotic landscaping and huge bay views are some of the nice perks for total relaxation.

The marina entrance has a card access security gate. There is a dockmaster during the day and a guard at the community gate.

Athletic Ability and Safety!
Boarding and exiting a boat may require some athletic ability. For your comfort and safety please take this in to consideration prior to booking.

About stormy weather:
If the winds are gusting really high and you suffer from motion sickness, staying on a boat can adversely affect your experience. Our cancellation policy is up until one day prior to check in so that you can monitor the 10 day weather report- we want you to love your stay here!
