1. description
SIMARON’s Burger pedigree has been maintained since her original launch, with all systems and equipment consistently serviced and/or
upgraded. Preventative maintenance has always remained a top priority.
The interior design brilliance of Douglas Richey coupled with the naval architecture and exterior styling flair of Don O’Keeffe and the
exceptional craftsmanship and engineering expertise of the Burger shipyard, created this beautiful Flush-Deck Motor Yacht, which so
elegantly bridges the gap between the most classic Burgers and the more modern, higher freeboard designs. In short, SIMARON is
simply stunning from all perspectives and she serves up three decks of luxurious comfort and entertainment, with several inviting outdoor
living spaces for all to enjoy.
KEY FEATURES
• Burger pedigree
• One owner since new
• Excellent ownership and an open-checkbook maintenance history

15. Accommodation
AFT DECK
SIMARON’s covered aft deck is comfortably furnished with a settee and four plush cherry wood folding chairs. The stair to the swim platform is on the starboard side with access to the lazarette and engine room. The swim platform is ideal for tende boarding and where all watersports are launched.
MAIN SALON
The main salon is entered from the aft-deck on centerline, via hinged double doors, opening to the entertaining area with oversize windows port and starboard for stunning views. The open arrangement, with couch, end tables, cocktail table and further comfortable seating invites relaxing interaction with the elegantly casual motif set amidst contrasting quarter-sawn cherry ¡ and madrone burl wood joinerwork. Opposite the seating area is a custom-built cabinet containing the front channel speakers of the surround sound system as well as a 47” H-D flat screen TV on an automatic lift. Forward of this cabinet is a matching custom-built game table with two very comfortable cushioned arm chairs.
DINING
The open dining area adjoins forward of the salon, with a round dining table and plush upholstered arm chairs for six guests. On both port and starboard sides are beautiful marble topped, empire-style, custom-built cabinets containing full sets of Hermes La Siesta dinnerware, silverware and stemware. Forward to starboard is a bar cabinet with a clear-ice maker and 20- bottle wine fridge.
GALLEY
The galley is on the port side of the main deck forward of the dining area, with a Dakota Mahogany granite-topped wrap- around counter and island that comfortably seat four on modern leather upholstered bar-height stools. The galley can be left open or cleverly concealed from guests with Cherrywood recessed-paneled bi-fold doors. Gourmet fixtures and appliances abound in this galley that also features huge windows both port and starboard—a chef’s dream. Opposite the galley is a curved stairway, lined with recessed Cherrywood paneling leading down to the elegant stateroom foyer. Just forward of this stairway on the main deck level is the day head with illuminated Lalique glass sink/fixtures.
PILOTHOUSE
Forward of the galley is the pilothouse that has recently upgraded with new navigation equipment and a comfortable leather upholstered settee with a Cherrywood topped table. Additionally, there is a smoked glass cabinet housing A/V equipment and there are entry doors on both port and starboard sides of the pilothouse providing access to the full walk-around side decks. Aft and to starboard, there is a very generous stairway to the flybridge.
MASTER SUITE
Entered through rounded double doors, SIMARON features a full-beam master suite forward on the lower deck with king bed, large his/hers cedar-lined closet storage, a desk with vanity, ample dresser drawers both port and starboard, entertainment system and opening/adjustable Cherrywood shutters over all the windows to further enhance the beauty of the stateroom. The ensuite fully marble-lined master bathroom has a large steam room with rain shower on the starboard side and a separate bathroom on the port side.
GUEST CABINS
Below deck are two elegant guest staterooms, one with twin beds and the other with a queen bed. Both have ensuite bathrooms with high level finishes and luxurious marble work throughout. All staterooms have individual entertainment systems, individual A/C controls and safes for guest security.
FLYBRIDGE
The flybridge is always a favorite area to lounge, sunbathe, dine and arrive into ports in style. The hardtop covered, isinglass enclosed flybridge boasts a complete navigation console with wing stations both port and starboard. On centerline is a Stidd captain’s chair. A forward-facing cushioned settee for two or three are positioned both port and starboard with storage beneath. Aft, on the centerline is a full bar with fridge, icemaker, sink and three upholstered bar stools. On both outboard sides are large cabinets containing storage for barware, dinnerware, silverware and a full compliment of appliances including a dishwasher. Aft of this area to port, is a dining area comfortably seating eight and to starboard is additional seating for six with a coffee table.
CAPTAIN & CREW
SIMARON can accommodate up to three crew in two cabins, including a Captain’s cabin and 1 additional crew over/under berth. The crew quarters includes a bathroom and contains a stack laundry.
