The most striking feature on this 68 Hargrave is the open floor plan with a clear sight line all the way from fore to aft providing full panoramic views from her main deck. The full beam, open plan layout coupled with Hargrave's seven feet of headroom throughout gives the feel of a much larger yacht. Her interiors are luxuriously finished with fine linens, granite countertops and satin finish cherry wood throughout. Not to be outdone by the interior, exterior spaces onboard are equally spacious and comfortable. Al fresco dining can be enjoyed either from the aft deck or flybridge. The built in seating and large tables in both spaces are ideal for on board entertaining. The flybridge is open to stern allowing for a beautiful spot to soak in the sun's rays, with enough space for a 14' RIB hoisted aboard with the 1600 lb. hydraulic lift.. A flurry of upgrades were completed in the late 2020- early 2022 timeframe include:
- Garmin electronics at both helm stations.
- Naiad stabilizers rebuild.
- New isinglass on the flybridge.
