2003 Sea Star Custom 65 Pilothouse
Designed by renowned yacht designer Don Shead, this 65’ Sea Star Custom Pilothouse blends long-range cruising capability with the comfort and layout of a much larger motor yacht. With elegant interior woodwork, generous living spaces, and a functional pilothouse layout, this vessel offers the perfect platform for extended cruising or living aboard.
The interior features beautiful teak and holly flooring, birch paneled walls, and stained mahogany trim, creating a warm and classic yacht atmosphere throughout. Large windows provide excellent natural light in the salon and pilothouse areas, giving the vessel an open and airy feel.
The spacious salon includes an L-shaped lounge with storage, entertainment center, and Bose surround sound, making it ideal for relaxing or entertaining guests. Just forward is a well-equipped galley featuring Sub-Zero refrigeration, electric cooktop, microwave, dishwasher, and ample storage, along with a large U-shaped dinette that converts into an additional berth.
Below deck, the vessel offers two comfortable staterooms plus captain’s quarters, allowing for extended cruising with family or guests. The full-beam master stateroom includes a king berth, entertainment center, and private ensuite head. The forward guest stateroom features an island berth, ensuite access, and generous storage.
The expansive flybridge provides a second helm station with full instrumentation, a large sun deck, wet bar, grill, and convertible seating area—perfect for entertaining while underway or at anchor.
Powered by twin MAN diesel engines with ZF gears, this custom pilothouse yacht delivers reliable performance and comfortable cruising capability.
With classic styling, practical cruising systems, and spacious accommodations, the Sea Star 65 Pilothouse offers the feel of a mini-megayacht in a manageable and capable platform.
