2024 Johnson Skylounge

From a floating dock boarding is easy on to the wide hydraulic swim platform. The aft deck has a fixed bench seat and a dining table fully protected by the bridge deck overhang.

A sliding door leads to the Salon with a large L-shaped settee to starboard and smaller love seat opposite.

The Galley is next forward to starboard with a small serving island towards the centerline. To port is a Dining table with fixed seating for five people.

Centerline is a stairway leading to the four guest cabins. The Master is aft with a king size berth in the full beam stateroom. The Head and hanging locker are aft of the Master berth.

Going forward from the Master is a twin berth cabin to starboard with the option of sliding the two berths together. Opposite to port is a guest head and a second twin berth cabin with fixed bunks. All the way forward is a VIP cabin with a walk-around queen berth and a private head.

The Skylounge has interior stairs, a full helm, an L-shaped settee and a sliding door to the Bridge Deck aft with aft facing seating, stairs to the Sundeck and room for portable chaise lounges.

Having no bulkheads on the main deck, the salon has a wide open feeling upon entering from aft deck. The salon door itself has a single hinged door panel to port with the other two panels opening outward hinging towards the starboard side of the aft deck. This allows the entire bulkhead to open when the weather permits. Immediately to port upon entering is a CZone touch panel followed by a two drawer end table. Next forward is a upholstered two person settee with storage below and a pop-up 55” Samsung QLED 4K TV. Further forward is a cherry cabinet with a Denon AV receiver and a subwoofer. Above are 8 open tread walnut stairs leading to the sky lounge. Immediately to starboard is a upholstered five-six person L-shaped settee with storage below. Large side windows are covered with OceanAir blinds. Overhead are four LED light bars, five KEF stereo speakers, high gloss and upholstered overhead panels. Large port and starboard full length A/C vents deliver cool air evenly in the room.

Next forward to port but open to the salon is the dining area with a large five person L-shaped settee outboard to port. There is storage below the upholstered cushions. A large cultured stone Quartz table on two pedestals is in front of the settee. Side and forward windows allow plenty of natural light, overhead are (2) dimmable LED light bars.

Across the beam is the open Galley. It is C-shaped with a small center island.

First of the new 70’ Johnson models, this replaces the 65’ with the addition of an aft crew cabin and a hydraulic tender platform. Boasting four cabins, three heads and a private crew suite aft, the 70’ has the amenities of larger vessels.

“At Rest” stabilization, hydraulic bow and stern thrusters, sewage treatment, a full Garmin suite of electronics, watermaker, and more make the Johnson 70’ almost impossible to duplicate at this price point!
