Explore DC and the Potomac underway or slipside by hosting your next bespoke event from a new perspective on a well-appointed 70’ foot classic motor yacht. This classic yacht, Sentry, built in 1977 (Hatteras Yachts) by the yacht architect Jack Hargrave for the Payson family who were actively involved in the America’s Cup Sailing Competitions. The yacht features a rich history, pampering crew, and amenities serving an elevated and memorable experience for corporate clients, non-profits, and individuals.
Today, Sentry is anchored in the Occoquan region and is owned by the Case family. Robert and Cheri Case have a love for navigating the waters, observing wildlife, participating in recreational activities, and are committed to preserving the history of the region. Their company, Southern Cross Navigation, LLC was founded in December of 2022 out of their passion for chartering and serving a bigger mission to partner with local businesses, corporates, non-profits, and most importantly individuals and organizations who want to give back to the community through charitable acts.
The yacht is well appointed with a full kitchen, salon, a large upper and lower deck, 3 private bedrooms and bathrooms, a library, and galley all lined in mahogany and teak wood throughout. All experiences are highly customizable from choosing your pick-up points, catering services, excursions, and amenities through their white glove service. Individuals and organizations are able to rent out the space for private events, book full or half day cruises, or multi-day signature charters spanning the Potomac and Chesapeake Bay.
The most unique attribute of Southern Cross Navigation, LLC’s business model is the ability for the event planner or host to choose how they wish to plan the ultimate experience. The yacht provides a unique event space either underway or dock-side, and can host an intimate or fair sized crowd depending upon the requests. Set out to sea to explore with family and friends, celebrate an engagement or mile-stone while dockside or host your most important decision makers aboard Sentry.
