Accommodations Consistent with this vessel's design focus on long term cruising and extensive living aboard, there is a real profusion of storage throughout the boat. On deck, there are two enormous cockpit lockers, a large dive locker, as well as a large lazarette. Below deck, every inch of available space has been well employed for truly abundant amounts of storage.
Perceived with the aim to provide comfortable accommodations at any latitude, "Pacific Dream" is a true four-season boat. Natural ventilation in tropical areas is superb, and is improved by four Cruiseair reverse cycle air conditioning units and by 12-volt fans throughout. OceanAir combination screens and shades appoint every hatch. There are screens for all port-lights.
Main Salon (Amidships) The Main Salon has an L-shaped settee to port around a varnished teak, fold-open dining table, and is open to the galley. Opposite to starboard is the dry bar with icemaker and a two-person settee, followed aft by the extensive navigation area. The companionway to the cockpit is on centerline and there is a walkthrough on the portside to the aft accommodations. The large windows, port, starboard, and forward, give unobstructed views and unequaled light and airiness.
Master Stateroom All the way aft is the large Master Stateroom with centerline walk around queen berth, extensive hanging lockers, drawer and shelf storage. The en-suite head is located to starboard and contains a vanity, stall shower, and Galley Maid toilet. Six ports and one overhead hatch provide light and ventilation.
"Pacific Dream" benefits from the finest joinery throughout, in gorgeous varnished teak in true yacht fashion. The cabin sole is new teak and holly. The upholstery was replaced in 2003.
Guest Stateroom (Forward) From the bow aft there is a large chain locker accessed from the forward guest/crew stateroom. This stateroom contains an oversized V-berth and two lockers, and shelf storage. Two opening hull ports and a large overhead hatch provide air ventilation.
The forward guest head is located aft and to starboard. It includes a shower, Galley Maid toilet, a hatch, and a hull port, and is finished in white laminate with teak trim.
Guest Stateroom (Aft) Aft of the main salon and down two steps to starboard is a very comfortable Guest Cabin with a single upper berth, and a lower double berth. There is ample drawer storage and a hanging locker. To port and opposite this cabin is another head with vanity, stall shower, and Gallymaid electric marine toilet. The clothes washer and dryer are also located in this passageway.
Stateroom / Storage (Forward Port): Situated just forward of the galley and on the port side there is a combination berth with spare parts storage below. Mounted to the aft bulkhead are four to five drawer tool chests. This area has been remarkably well thought out and built. A new, 2003, Village Marine 600 gpd, water maker is located below the cabin sole and the controls are enclosed behind a louvered door.
Galley Forward of the salon is the full width Galley. It features a U-shaped working area and utensils to port, and is finished in white laminate with teak trim. Two overhead hatches provide light and air.

Hull Construction: Balsa cored, hand laid, fiberglass hull with reinforced longitudinal stringers. Raked stern, well rounded forefoot, long low aspect ratio cruising keel. Internal lead ballast. Hull and deck are mechanically and chemically joined with a teak cap rail and glassed over on the inside.
The underwater section of the hull was peeled in 2003, thoroughly dried and coated with ten coats of Epoxy barrier coat to prevent against blistering. Re-faired and recoated in 2006. New bottom paint 2007.
The teak decks were installed in 1997 using Epoxy, and very limited screws. Decks re-caulked with Maritime caulking in 2006.
Hull and deck repainted 2006 with Awlgrip 2000 in Oyster white. Toe rail was painted in Awlgrip to reduce maintenance.
New Bottom Paint, September 2007
Navigation Equipment and Electronics The navigation station is located in the aft starboard quarter of the main salon, adjacent to the remarkable main switch/breaker panel (1999) and the companionway to the cockpit. The full sized, navigation desk has a lift top with storage below, and with a large comfortable chair. A Nobeltec Visual Navigation Suite navigation system with a 13" Nauticomp flat screen monitor (binnacle mounted with remote mouse) was installed in 2005, interfaced to the autopilot and GPS. As well as the custom size instrument pod at the binnacle, there is one multi function display at the navigation station.
All navigation systems are fully networked and truly redundant and can be controlled at the helm from a custom control panel. All navigation equipment is repeated at the nav station including autopilots, RADARS, depth sounders, and plotters.

Remarks "Pacific Dream" is a truly magnificent example of the top quality ever popular Gulfstar 62 Sailmaster series. All systems have either been replaced or refurbished within the last few years. All the electronics were replaced in 2008 except for the standby GPS. "Pacific Dream" now features state of the art navigation systems at both the helm and nav station below. All new battery banks and dual plate /dual system refrigeration were also installed in 2008.
"Pacific Dream" must be viewed to fully appreciate the quality of workmanship that has gone into refitting and upgrading this yacht. She was originally purchased and refitted with a circumnavigation in mind and all the systems are geared toward a functional yacht with two completely independent systems in all aspects of the yacht management including, navigation, autopilots, generators, water makers and much more. She is designed to be sailed short handed and with a 1700 nm cruising range under power.
The interior is spectacular, incorporating three comfortable staterooms, plus a Captain's cabin with tool storage. With her raised salon and modified cruising keel, her deign will appeal to the most discriminating of yachtsmen.
