“MY MARIANNE” was uniquely built for and customized by her knowledgeable and experienced yachtsman-owner, who transitioned from a sailing yacht to cruise with family along the eastern seaboard, from South Florida to Annapolis, and beyond.
Although the Prestige 590 was designed with Zeus Pod joysticks, electronic throttles, bow thruster, Skyhook, and other smart technologies to make the 590 Flybridge easy to operate and enjoy, the owner upgraded “MY MARIANNE” with additional systems to further ease shorthanded operation, such as ZIP WAKE, a fully automatic, dynamic trim-control system and wall ports for VoIP connections to the PEPLINK/PEPWAVE mobile maritime Internet connectivity system, and a third joystick control station in the cockpit. The Prestige 590’s hull was specifically designed to optimize the performance of the twin Cummins/Zeus 600 hp engines and for a seakindly, efficient ride in various sea conditions. Owner upgraded with a SeaKeeper gyrostabilizer for additional comfort at sea and at anchor, especially appreciated when staying in busy marinas.
The highly functional interior layout of “MY MARIANNE” features a fully equipped, gourmet aft galley with a window that opens to the aft deck/cockpit for conveniently serving beverages and al fresco meals. The starboard side of the main deck is raised a step, including the main helm area, and a specially designed glass side door abaft of the helm seat provides an easy exit to the starboard side deck, when docking shorthanded. The main deck’s large side windows, angled forward windows, and aft mirrored glass sliders create a bright interior of natural light and panoramic views. Light, neutral tones enhance the salon’s spaciousness and relaxing ambience.
The 590 Flybridge offers a plethora of well-designed spaces for enjoying sunshine, fresh sea air, and the sea itself, cruising or at anchor. Built-in furniture with convertible features adds versatility to interior and exterior areas. The owner upgraded the cockpit seating to convert to a large sunbed lounge. Triple sun pads on the wide foredeck/bow area, huge flybridge with forward sunbed, wet bar station with grill, and aft L-Seating around an expandable table on bridge and cockpit, are designed to optimize relaxation and cruising pleasure. The hydraulic wide Teak swim platform—capable of storing “MY MARIANNE”’s tender, features a handrail with ladder for swimming and snorkeling, or diving.
The 3-Stateroom/2-Head (plus separate aft crew quarters) Prestige 590, “MY MARIANNE” is an ideal mid-size yacht for family cruises. No expense was spared to keep her meticulously maintained and upgraded (see UPGRADES for a complete list).
