Trekker’s adventure
class yachts are clearly unique and distinctive in their appearance, their
function, and their relationship with their human occupants. Their purposeful
mission represents a new profile for the yachting world.
As distinctive as Cousteau’s Calypso, a Trekker presents a commanding
profile that looks like nothing else, featuring 7 primary innovations:
1. Command Control Center - Each Trekker is distinguished by its command
forward, curved and elevated bridge that provides transparent helicopter-like
visibility. Its “up and forward” position is also the key
component to Trekker’s unique space utilization strategy.
Extraordinary is the helm’s seating and accommodations. A huge
sofa radiates behind the glass, giving passengers a cruise ship view
while positioning the captain above and behind for optimum visibility
and control.
Large sunroofs and side doors open up to let the sun and breeze flow
through – adding flybridge sensations on fair weather days.
A large table for charts or entertaining, a refreshment center and bar
and a full head leading to the upper deck and barbecue center complete
this multi-tasking masterpiece.
2. Array Storage -
Every Trekker is adorned with a unique collection of water world vessels
and accessories mounted upon its multi-tiered
back – space that is easily engineered, and re-engineered to store
and maintain the owner’s specific assortment of water toys.
Rather than a design afterthought, Trekkers have been engineered to maintain
an exceptional stability profile – coupled with a mandate to handle
loads as large as 6,000 pound personal submarines. This is what adventure
class is all about!
3. Launch Retrieval System – Trekkers are fitted with a
computer-controlled launch and retrieval system (LRS) that safely and
quickly maneuvers each unique collection of adventure craft.
Trekker’s LRS technology utilizes a gantry platform – a proven
design that has served countless open sea operations for commercial and
research vessels. This design approach provides an extraordinary increase
in stability and safety when compared to traditional “davit” cranes.
Our favorite “little secret” is that the LRS also works just
as well when the boat is resting in its slip – a huge advantage
over davits that are far more dangerous and require moving the boat out
of the slip to lower a dinghy. Trekkers easily launch and retrieve its
entire array off the transom’s swim step – allowing for Trekker’s
comfortable interiors to keep the football games and socializing going
strong while the day sailors and personal watercraft entertain the kids – or
is it the other way around?
4. Garage - The stern section of every Trekker incorporates a dedicated
garage, and each one is geared to store and maintain whatever assortment
of accessories and supplies are required to fuel the owner’s particular
adventures. There is a rear swim step entrance to the garage with an
ocean view and instant out-in for the scuba and fishing gear, skis, sails,
bicycles, u-name-it – as well as a forward door into the engine
room. Twin gasoline storage tanks and an external fill station are integrated – enough
to feed hungry auxiliary craft for weeks at a time. A work bench and
computer station provides a total operating and maintenance capability,
with custom racking and storage for the accessories, parts, and maintenance
inventory. “Wow.”
5. Roto-Dock – Each Trekker can be equipped with a full width extended
swim step structure that stores up and rotates into position. This accommodates
multi-boat tie-ups, swimming, scuba diving and on-site fishing activities
- making standard swim steps look like cosmetic trim. It is all about
expanding the adventure with more convenience, comfort, and capability.
6. All Aluminum – Trekker yachts are 100% marine grade aluminum
in construction, and proud of it as they are largely unpainted, sporting
instead a practical satin silver finish that is ultra durable, very low
maintenance, incredibly strong, and environmentally superior. Trekker
owners don’t think that adventure means endlessly polishing and
waxing plastic surfaces and worrying about scratches and water spots!
It’s all about establishing priorities, and Trekker is providing
industry leadership in offering a world-class yacht that sets new standards
for user-friendly performance. Hey, go polish the toys!
7. Open Flow Interior - All Trekkers utilize the torsional strength of
their 1-piece aluminum welded structure to reduce the intrusion of interior
bulkheads in the main living area -- providing an open interior
space with views in all directions for uncluttered penthouse-style living.
And the elimination of a second steering station means that the salon
evolves into a huge forward dining table able to feed the whole team
two steps from the galley! Trekker provides extraordinary accommodations
as you will see when you sort through our accommodations plan. Enjoy!
