NAMASTE: 40m Tamsen Superyacht Tour
NAMASTE enjoys many unique and innovative attributes that make her stand out from the crowd. The first, noticeable as soon as you approach her, is the attractive "cappuccino" colour of her hull which accentuates her lines and hints at the earth tones and associated ideas evident in her interior.

Spaces are generous not only for the guests, but also, "below stairs" in the working areas of the yacht such as the galley and crew cabins.
It is also clear that a great deal of thought went into using the decks of the yacht to their best advantage.

This area offers fabulous unobstructed views and also privacy from the quay when in port. In addition, the more traditional aft deck and bridge deck areas are unusually large and offer a choice of both shaded and sun‐drenched areas to enjoy.
Since the owner of Namaste took delivery of her in 2008, he has continuously invested in and upgraded the yacht without any consideration of cost. She is now in better
