Transom , main deck and skylounge decks

Getting aboard and around Maranatha is easy, thanks to many great features of this motor yacht. Starting with stepping onto the swim platform with large stainless handrails along both sides of the transom, large staple-style swim platform safety rails give you confidence as you step from the dock onto the large swim deck, then large moderate-rise steps lead you to the spacious aft deck. Getting to and from the foredeck is very easy with the wide teak decks and again large oval handrails give you confidence moving between the spaces. Once inside the yacht there are easy to manage stairways that make it simple to get between the main, lower and skylounge decks.
