Ten years ago, Jeff Petro took up boating, and it’s been a ten-year search with a lot of adventures to find the perfect boat. His dream yacht turned out to be a Monte Carlo 6.
He and his wife were looking for a vessel that was just as at ease during a leisurely day cruise and evening ‘docktails’ as it would be for longer cruises out to Bimini or West End from his South Beach, Florida base.
Jeff and his wife started off with a 24-foot express cruiser, and in time they would progress all the way up to owning a 72-foot Hatteras. Deciding it was time for a new boat, Jeff picked up Yachting Magazine and began reading about the Monte Carlo 5, which he would eventually purchase from Denison Yacht Sales in 2015. They loved their MC 5, but realized just a little more space would truly be ideal. As a result, last year they moved up to a Monte Carlo 6.
