The salon is the social heart of Marco Polo. It's open yet comfortable as clever design features subtly enclose and define the spaces. Here are formal and informal dining along with a lounging area and wet bar.

Marco Polo remains below 500 gross tons freeing the owner from many disruptive and annoying regulatory issues yet still offering remarkable volume. Marco Polo is a single propellor yacht. There is no compromise in security or safety though. She can get home safely using a commercial standard schottel pump in the bow. Normally used as a bowthruster, the water jet can be turned to power the yacht forward at up to 6 knots. This offers greater safety than an ordinary twin screw yacht because Marco Polo can steam home after total failure of every system in the main engine room. This is only...
