SHOGUN is a 39.01-metre Northcoast motor yacht that makes a truly remarkable addition to the West Coast charter market, a striking and dramatically styled tri-deck that pairs timeless build quality with a bold, luxurious interior, cruising California year-round. Built in 2002 and previously named Lady Kath, she has been maintained to the highest standards throughout her life and, in 2022, underwent a revolutionary interior refit that left no stone unturned. Her semi-displacement hull offers an excellent balance of space and speed, with a comfortable 13-knot cruise and a 17-knot top speed, and a shallow draft of just over two metres that lets her anchor close to the beach and reach quieter coves along the California coast. The interior spaces of SHOGUN are dramatic and luxurious while still maintaining a comfortable atmosphere. Working alongside interior designer Nardine Habib, her visionary owners created a sophisticated design incorporating rich reds, vibrant golds, elegant velvet textures and awe-inspiring, intricate detailing, with carpets in a combination of black and gold that tie beautifully into the ornate furnishings, all set against timeless mahogany joinery with mappa burl inlay and luxurious marble and granite throughout. The main salon offers abundant seating options and, forward, a formal dining table where guests enjoy meals prepared in one of the yacht’s two galleys. A fully equipped skylounge with a country-style galley and bar provides a second, more casual gathering place with its own guest seating. Charter guests will be equally impressed by SHOGUN’s on-deck offerings, with delightful outdoor living areas for relishing the alfresco lifestyle. The sundeck is sensational, offering 360-degree views while soaking in the Jacuzzi and lounging among sunpads, with a barbecue and additional dining area, while the skylounge aft is perfect for casual meals with a small dining table and grill, and a larger dining table on the main deck aft provides the ideal place for alfresco meals. Accommodation is arranged for up to 12 guests across five resplendent staterooms. The main-deck master is a glorious full-beam suite with a king-size bed, a day bed, a desk and ample wardrobe space, plus a his-and-hers en-suite bathroom outfitted in marble with a Jacuzzi tub on one side and a shower on the other. The four additional staterooms on the lower deck, comprising a VIP, two queens and a twin with two Pullman berths, are each well-appointed with en-suite facilities and boast a unique styling that ties in beautifully with the rest of the yacht. SHOGUN is run by a professional crew of six who provide five-star service, and is outfitted with a full suite of tenders and toys. She cruises California year-round, giving charter guests access to the finest anchorages and coastline of the West Coast throughout the year. From her dramatic, jewel-toned interior to her sun-drenched decks and her shallow-draft access to California’s quietest coves, SHOGUN offers a genuinely distinctive charter for guests who value bold design and five-star service in equal measure. Available through Northrop and Johnson from USD 95,000 per week. Her rare combination of West Coast availability, dramatic styling and impeccable maintenance makes her one of the most memorable charter yachts on the California coast.
