Milk and Honey Thanks to a very recent and complete upgrade, the sought-after charter yacht Milk and Honey is better than ever. Solidly built by the premier yard of Palmer Johnson and beautifully maintained, she accommodates ten guests in five staterooms. Exceptionally large for her length, this sleek 125-foot, tri-deck yacht offers the volume and space of a 150-footer. Among the abundance of indoor and outdoor spaces is the sun deck, with a spa pool, bar, and wicker settees. Also on this deck are oversized lounge chairs that adjust to face the sun or shade and can convert to sun pads. One level down, on the boat deck, there�s a large table for dining under the stars. Meals are also served on the main deck, either in the formal dining salon or in the soft breeze on the aft deck. Throughout the interior, serene colors and supple fabrics complement such rich woods as cherry, mahogany, burled olive, and inlaid black walnut. The main salon, with a long, curving settee and chairs, has a full bar as well as a large high-definition 3DTV and a state-of-the-art sound system. The full-beam master suite on the main deck encompasses a private office, large stateroom with centerline king-size bed, and his-and-her vanities and WC�s connecting to a central steam shower and tub room. Three queen staterooms and one twin stateroom, all ensuite, are located on the lower deck. As would be expected on a yacht of this caliber, no detail has been overlooked, including zero-speed stabilizers to ensure guests are always comfortable as well as expertly looked after by a polished crew of 7.

"I found the crew to be genuine and really pleasant to talk to. Captain William has a calm demeanor, a very nice guy, and he is very experienced in the cruising grounds that MILK & HONEY has advertised. The boat has a beautiful wood interior paired with pretty artwork and calming interior décor – it would appeal to anyone. She’s really in excellent condition!"
Broker
"MILK & HONEY looked very good and fresh. Her sun deck is well laid out with sun chairs and sun-pad, and the Jacuzzi is a real Jacuzzi, not a small one that squeeze people in. The Sky Lounge is cozy and well laid out. It was nice to see how they updated twin guest stateroom so it now can convert to a king."
Broker
"MILK & HONEY looks fantastic. I have not been onboard for over 3 years and the refit looks amazing. Great spaces, light and bright and very clean. Captain William was a delight and I feel very confident with his knowledge of the cruising areas that the boat will be located in. Crew was friendly, enthusiastic and on top of their game.”
