2016 Jeanneau 64

Serenity is unquestionably the best equipped and most heavily optioned Jeanneau 64 on the water today. Her owner has spared no expenses to make her a yacht truly capable of world travel or the ideal island cruiser. The emphasis of the improvements were comfort, functionality, and ease of sailing. These key enhancements have transformed Serenity into a vessel where you can enjoy weekend escapes or longer voyages with ease, making it an ideal choice for live-aboard cruising or entertaining friends and family. 

The luxurious amenities, cutting-edge technology, and thoughtful layout not only ensure a comfortable experience but also cater to the practical needs of modern sailors. Features like updated cabins, advanced entertainment systems, new North Sails 3Di sails, and efficient cooking and mechanical systems demonstrate a blend of luxury and practicality.  

Serenity is a three cabin three head layout with crew quarters in the bow. When you first step below, the first thing you will notice is the abundance of natural light in the saloon. Followed by the spacious settees with luxurious upholstery, and a large 60” display networked into both the AV and navigation systems. And the most noticeable item is the custom table that folds to create seating for eight or more.  

Stepping below to port, you will enter a magnificent galley with upgraded appliances, and a spacious Corian countertop. Adjacent to the galley is a day head. Followed by the owner's cabin aft, where you will find a roomy cabin with a Tempur-Pedic mattress, upgraded lighting, premium Bose sound system and a 50” smart TV. Along with its renovated ensuite head, and large glass enclosed shower. 

Stepping into the starboard side of the saloon, you will find the mid-ship stateroom, equipped with two bunks stacked on each other, which make a very stable platform when sleeping at sea. This stateroom also houses a large access door to the engine room, as well as the washer and dryer.   

Thanks to a large refit completed by New England Boatworks in 2022, moving forward to the forward VIP state room, you will notice a big difference in the design from the original layout of the boat. First off, the two forward staterooms have been combined by removing the partition that runs the centerline of the boat. This has now created a spacious cabin that includes two queen size berths with new custom mattresses. This then leads to a spacious VIP head with a glass enclosed shower, and a separate bathtub. With access to the forward crews' quarters through a door in the forward shower. In the crew's quarters you will find two additional bunks, which are perfect for visitors and grandkids.  

Whether you're sailing across the Caribbean, enjoying a weekend at a marina, or living aboard, Serenity is designed to provide the utmost in comfort and performance. 

As part of the NEB refit, the forward starboard stateroom had its entryway in the mina bulkhead closed up. This allowed for the saloon settee to be wrapped around forward. As well it facilitated a place to hand a 50” display for AV and navigation. All upholstery was replaced, and a new electric folding table was installed.
