CHEROKEE IS IN THE HARBOR
There are yachts, and there are yachts. Cherokee is currently gracing Edenton's Town Harbor wiith magnificent lines and beautiful topsides. The contour of the bow, accented by the curvature of the rails is reminiscent of vintage yachting days gone by.
The combination of Cherokee in Edenton's Harbor is a photographers delight.
Cherokee is a completely rebuilt and redesigned 1948 Huckins Fairform Flyer, a 65-foot yacht meticulously restored to capture the vintage grandeur of Herreshoff style interiors. Cherokee is equipped with every contemporary luxury, including air-conditioned designer staterooms and state-of-the-art Rolls Royce water jets.
Cherokee is an extreme shallow-water vessel—the only yacht of its size, speed and luxury capable of navigating the notoriously difficult waters of the Bogue, Core and Pamlico Sounds. Cherokee boasts fabulous accommodations for six, including three staterooms with spacious bathrooms. Other amenities include: laundry room, CD/DVD player, LCD TV, surround sound, and state-of-the-art navigation and radar systems. Cherokee has indoor/outdoor dining, multiple decks, a spacious fly bridge, and kayaks onboard.
