Key Takeaways

  • •
    Raise the optional actuated bow table to set out a charcuterie board and drinks so friends can gather around for the sunset.
  • •
    Stretch out on the forward chaise lounge with its contoured seating and armrests when you want a comfortable spot to take in the view.
  • •
    Use the rear-facing mezzanine seat and flip-down bench at the stern as a second gathering area so guests can spread out between the bow and the aft cockpit.

Some evenings, the only plan you need is to get everyone aboard and enjoy the sunset. Bring a few things to share, find a comfortable spot and spend a little time catching up while the day winds down.

For this outing aboard the Phenom 43, we slowed things down and enjoyed the boat with friends. Charcuterie, margaritas and an evening on the water made a pretty good combination, with plenty of places to gather from bow to stern.

A Table With a Sunset View

The bow is an easy place to settle in when you have friends aboard. With the optional actuated bow table raised, there’s a spot to set out a charcuterie board and refreshments while everyone gathers around.

It turns a simple stop on the water into something you can take your time enjoying. Share a bite, refill a glass and stay for the changing colors. There’s no reservation to keep and no reason to rush through the conversation.

Nearby, the forward chaise lounge offers another comfortable place to relax. Its contoured seating and armrests make it an inviting spot to stretch out and take in the view.

More Room to Gather at the Stern

The evening doesn’t have to stay in the bow. At the stern, the rear-facing mezzanine seat and flip-down bench create another gathering area, giving friends a place to sit together and enjoy the water around them.

Having seating in different areas lets everyone find the spot that suits them. Some can stay close to the table, while others settle into the aft cockpit for a quieter conversation. Everyone has room to get comfortable without crowding into one part of the boat.

An Evening Worth Making Time For

We spend plenty of time talking about what the Phenom 43 can do offshore. Evenings like this give us another reason to enjoy it.

A comfortable seat, good food and friends you don’t get to see often enough can be all it takes to make a cruise memorable. The Phenom 43 brings those pieces together in a setting that’s hard to leave.
