PRETTI ROSE, a classic Downeast 54 Custom Lobster yacht, epitomizes the blend of timeless tradition and discerning family values. Built with a Mussel Ridge 54 hull, deck, and superstructure by the skilled team at Newport Yacht Builders under Jim Thompson's leadership, this yacht showcases meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail. Her construction was carefully monitored by her owner, a prominent industry professional, and Ezra Smith, the lead designer, ensuring every aspect was perfected. Often referred to as the “Workboat that Works,” PRETTI ROSE offers a unique cruising experience with a fun-filled Narragansett Bay flair, making her the coolest lobster yacht in the world.

PRETTI ROSE is powered efficiently by a single 1550 MAN Diesel Engine, delivering both performance and reliability. A standout feature is her Seakeeper gyro stabilizer, which operates on 110v AC power and is air-cooled. Located in the mechanical space aft of the shower, this stabilizer can also run on battery power, ensuring stability in all sea conditions. Her striking exterior design harmonizes tradition and functionality, creating an ideal work platform. The massive single-level cockpit is accessible through inward-opening side doors on both port and starboard sides just aft of the house. The entire opening transom, with movable stern seating positioned forward, offers an open and versatile space for lounging, toy storage, and safe movement in any seaway. Wide-decked, tall cockpit coamings provide excellent casual seating and a safe area for young ones and pets. A small davit to port aids in tender hauling, enhancing her practical functionality.

The Herreshoff-style interior of PRETTI ROSE is expertly crafted, combining traditional woodwork with modern design elements to create a timeless ambiance. The pilothouse, under an extended roof, houses a full galley to port with a Miele cooktop, oven, two generous refrigerator drawers, one freezer drawer, and a deep stainless steel double sink. The spacious, raised L-shaped dining table from centerline to starboard, the well-appointed helm station with smartly placed Navionics controls and steering to starboard, and the redundancy of most controls at the co-helm seat to port, highlight the thoughtful design. The pilothouse is enclosed by isinglass panels, offering 270 degrees of visibility, and features an easy-access door to starboard. Fully air-conditioned, this space also includes numerous opening hatches on the roof, as well as operable windshield and side ports, providing ample natural ventilation.

PRETTI ROSE comfortably accommodates up to six guests across three beautifully appointed cabins. The owner’s suite, forward from the house, features a queen centerline island berth, shelves to port and starboard, and full-length hanging lockers. The well-appointed head-to-starboard includes an under-mounted sink, abundant storage in lockers and drawers, and a large en-suite shower aft. The shower door conceals an additional doorway for easy access to the machinery space under the cockpit. A guest cabin to port offers an L-shaped single berth arrangement that can accommodate two adults or children, providing versatility and comfort. This cabin, along with a second head forward to port, ensures that guests have private, comfortable accommodations. The third cabin, accessed from the cockpit, adds to the yacht’s versatility, making it perfect for family gatherings or kids' slumber parties.

PRETTI ROSE's exterior embodies true lobster yacht styling with custom bench seating that slides forward to offer an open transom, facilitating easy launching of tenders or toys and providing excellent access to the sea. The massive cockpit space is ideal for relaxing, storing water toys, and ensuring safety in all conditions. Her wide-decked, tall cockpit coamings not only provide great seating but also create a secure environment for young ones and pets.

PRETTI ROSE offers a brilliant layout with comfortable access, smart sleeping quarters, and thoughtful details, making her a standout in the world of Downeast cruisers. She is a near-new, meticulously maintained yacht that promises an exceptional cruising experience.

Walkthrough

In true lobster yacht fashion the first thing noticed upon visual inspection is the striking lines of this solid work platform. Thoughtful tradition and mass combined in perfect harmony. Her massive single level cockpit is easily entered by inward opening side doors in both port and starboard comings just aft of the house and the entire opening transom with movable stern seating positioned forward. Lounge about, easily store the toys when under way and feel safe in any seaway in the massive cockpit space. Wide-decked, tall cockpit coamings make for great casual seating while also creating a very safe area for young ones and pets. To port there is a small davit for tender hauling. Forward to port and down is access to the third cabin and second head.
With aft pilothouse enclosure open the cockpit properly compliments the attention to details and livability of the entire deck and pilothouse amenities package. Under the pilothouse extended roof one finds a full galley to port with Miele cooktop, oven, two generous refrigerator drawers, one freezer drawer and a deep stainless steel double sink. The house is completed with large, raised L shaped dining table from centerline to starboard, a very generous, well-appointed helm station with Navionics smartly available and placed, controls and steering to starboard and redundancy of most at the co-helm seat to port. Appointments of the pilothouse are truly stunning for a vessel of this nature. The house is enclosed two hundred and seventy degrees by isinglass panels, easy access door to starboard. While fully air conditioned, this space also has numerous opening hatches on the roof, as well as her windshield and side ports to provide simple natural ventilation.
Her interior space is down from the house a few steps and finished identical to the pilothouse. Forward is a queen centerline island berth. To port and starboard are shelves flanked by full length hanging lockers. Aft to starboard is an extremely well-appointed head with undermounted sink, an abundance of storage space in lockers and drawers and a large ensuit shower aft. The shower door has an additional concealed doorway for easy access to machinery space under the cockpit. A brilliant layout with comfortable access and smart sleeping quarters is completed by a guest cabin to port with L shaped single berth arrangement to accommodate two adults or children when not used simply for lounging.
