Deerfoot 74 Pilothouse

Immaculate, proven, expedition class Deerfoot 74. Conceived by Steve Dashew, engineered by Elvstrom Yacht Design and built at the iconic Walstad Boatyard in Denmark, Interlude is a custom performance cruiser that consistently delivers over 200 miles a day under sail or power with a doublehanded crew. Actively owner operated by a couple for the past 24 years, Interlude has been immaculately maintained with all the upmarket amenities to make life at sea not only adventurous but luxurious.

In 2012, Interlude, a Deerfoot 74 motor sailor, underwent a thorough refit that has since maintained its impeccable condition, a testament to exceptional maintenance. This yacht comfortably accommodates 6 in 3 staterooms. Access into the boat is through the main deck that gains you entrance to the large, comfortable pilot house. The pilothouse has the navigation and communications equipment, autopilot and primary controls for internal steering including emergency equipment. The Pilothouse itself is fundamental to stay warm and dry in rough or cold conditions Interlude is equipped with all of the components needed for blue water cruising. One gains entrance into the salon area just down the stairs of the pilothouse. Forward of this salon is the primary stateroom with a queen size bed to port and hanging lockers and dresser to starboard. Aft of the salon is a walkthrough galley that leads to the washer and dryer, port and starboard double berth staterooms and two head with showers The aft lazarettes contain the dive compressor, diesel heater, life raft, stern anchor locker and sealed propane locker. The forepeak with dual chain locker contains a chest fridge/freezer, 14ft two person inflatable Hobie kayak and ample storage for spare anchors, sails and lines. Also included in the sale is a 10.5 ft. AB 10.5 ft w/electric start 20 hp Yamaha & wheel steering.

Interlude’s long, light, easily-driven hull allows use of a substantially smaller rig than would be needed on a shorter, beamier boat with the same amenities. This results in shorthanded comfort, safety and speed to go anywhere. Equipped for serious blue water cruising with a fuel range of 1,500 miles, 75 gallon per hour watermaker, 150 hp main engine, 12 kw and 8 kw generators, where you go with her is only limited by your imagination.
