Step Aboard the Belt-and-Braces Luxury Experience of the 40m Trident Yacht ‘Package Deal’

Listing recently for sale with Mark Elliott of IYC, the 40.2-metre Trident motor yacht ‘Package Deal’ carries an allure of crystalised seaworthiness; a testament to American craftsmanship. Delivered in 1999 and refurbished in 2023, she’s a seasoned veteran of the seas, boasting a GRP design conceived by the creative mind of Wesley Carr.

Major selling points of ‘Package Deal’ derive from its unparalleled outdoor spaces – nautical playgrounds awash with striking features. The sundeck metamorphoses into a ‘resort-style’ spectacle, complete with a Jacuzzi, well-stocked bar, sunpads, and accommodate large umbrellas - essentials for basking in the panorama-abundant sunshine.

This majestic sea-farer embraces the al fresco life; her layout includes two outdoor dining setups. The main deck, at the aft, can transform into an all-weather space with full enclosure, while the bridge deck aft offers the privilege of shadow-play with an optional awning.

Boasting an internal volume of 383 Gross Tons, ‘Package Deal’ illustrates an ideal charter layout. Its main saloon, bathed in natural light, is a civic space with ample sofa seating teamed with a marble centre table. Forward, a dedicated dining area waits in anticipation for feasts and fêtes.

A crowning feature of the yacht is a fitness suite skilletted into the skylounge, a rare yet fitting amenity in a yacht of this calibre. This dual-purpose space houses an assortment of equipment, including a Peloton, treadmill, and rowing machine, while also functioning as a sophisticated lounge.

‘Package Deal’ can host up to 11 guests across her five well-appointed staterooms. The master suite stretching the full 8.7-metre beam on the main deck, featuring a decadent his-and-hers bathroom with Jacuzzi and large shower. Below deck, an additional four cabins push the envelope of comfort and luxury.

The yacht’s power originates from dual 720hp Caterpillar 3412-DITA diesel engines. She can cut through waves at a top speed of 12 knots, cruising serenely at 10 knots. Her 2.1-metre draught gives her friendly clearance for Bahamas cruising, casting the net wide for her future explorations.
