1999 Tarrab 82 Motoryacht

MAIN COURSE is an impressive 82’ Tarrab motoryacht that combines generous interior volume, elegant finishes and well-appointed outdoor spaces. With a 21’ 6” beam and a forward-positioned deckhouse, her three-level layout offers an exceptional balance of comfort, privacy and entertaining space. The full-beam main salon features comfortable seating, a formal dining area, a wet bar, and large windows, while the enclosed galley, separate pilothouse, and main-deck day head provide the convenience of a thoughtfully designed home at sea. Below deck, four ensuite staterooms accommodate owners and guests, highlighted by a spacious amidships master with a king berth, cedar-lined walk-in closet and marble ensuite. Separate aft crew quarters accommodate two. Outdoors, a covered aft deck provides an inviting setting for al fresco dining, while the expansive flybridge features sheltered seating beneath a fiberglass hardtop and an open aft area for tender handling. Foredeck seating and a concealed hot tub beneath the forward sunpad add to her recreational appeal. Powered by twin 1,350 HP Caterpillar 3412 DITA diesel engines and equipped with Naiad stabilizers, a Keypower bow thruster and twin Northern Lights generators, MAIN COURSE offers a compelling combination of classic motor yacht styling, spacious accommodations and capable cruising equipment.

Boarding from the swim platform, twin curved stairways lead to the covered aft deck. From here, access into the main salon creates a natural connection between outdoor dining and the interior entertaining spaces. Forward of the salon are the enclosed galley, day head and pilothouse. A curved stairway from the pilothouse serves the four owner and guest cabins below; an internal stairway also leads up to the flybridge.

The full-beam salon is arranged with a leather sofa to starboard, a loveseat to port, and two swivel recliners around a glass-topped wood coffee table. Curved, full-height wooden doors conceal the entertainment center to port at the aft end.

Doors on both sides give access to the side decks and foredeck; the room also offers scope for use as an onboard office.

The master is positioned amidships around a centerline, walk-around king berth with reading lamps. A vanity occupies one side, with a sofa and storage cabinetry opposite. A cedar-lined walk-in closet with a mirrored wall provides substantial wardrobe space, and 4 opening ports (with screens) provide natural ventilation.

MAIN COURSE offers the interior volume and separation of spaces that make an 82-foot motoryacht practical for extended time aboard. Her four ensuite staterooms allow family and guests their own accommodation, while the enclosed galley and separate crew area support longer stays. The midships king master, full-beam salon and covered aft dining deck are central to her appeal.

Tarrab’s broad-beamed layout makes particularly effective use of the upper deck, where a substantial hardtop flybridge provides a second gathering space above the main salon. For buyers seeking a traditional motoryacht arrangement with room for guests and crew, MAIN COURSE presents a compelling platform to consider. Under her current 11-year ownership, she has been used as a liveaboard in Newport, RI, and South Florida for large portions of each year. She is for sale due to her owner's desire to move ashore and downsize their boating time.

2018 Rossiter 14’ tender is excluded from the sale
