Hull No. 38 from Winter Custom Yachts
Hull number 38 from Winter Custom Yachts is a Winter 66, Triple Tail. Powered by twin 2,000 hp MTU M96X diesels, Triple Tail cruises at 35 knots and reaches 42 knots wide open. Designed for serious offshore performance, she offers the power and agility demanded by tournament anglers, while maintaining the refined elegance Winter is known for.
Purpose-Built Cockpit for Offshore Fishing
The purpose-built cockpit features four custom refrigerated/freezer boxes, a Release Marine fighting chair, Gemlux rod holders, an electric grill, and genuine teak finishes. There’s a cockpit electric grill, teak covering boards and decking, and a transom livewell.
Accent lighting, oversized ladder treads, and clever storage details reflect Winter’s dedication to both form and function.
Commanding Bridge Layout
On the bridge, Triple Tail is equipped with a peninsula console helm with three Release Marine helm chairs, three 19-inch Garmin MFDs, and a Furuno OMNI CSH8 sonar system.
The captain benefits from excellent control and visibility in all conditions, while comfortable seating, onboard refrigeration, and a three-sided acrylic enclosure make the bridge as comfortable as it is functional.
Interior Designed for Comfort and Entertaining
Triple Tail’s interior features a four-stateroom, four-head layout, including:
- A full-beam master suite
- A VIP stateroom
- A bunkroom
- An aft guest suite
This configuration provides berths for up to 10 guests.
The salon offers a U-shaped galley with premium SubZero refrigeration, Wolf appliances, quartz countertops, and custom storage solutions.
A spacious dinette, custom sofa with hidden storage, convertible coffee table, and liquor cabinet complete a space designed equally for relaxation and entertainment.
Smart Systems and Refined Finishes
SmartFilm technology on all windows provides privacy and comfort at the touch of a button, while the yacht’s climate systems and high-end finishes create a truly elevated onboard experience.
Systems include:
- Twin Kohler generators
- Seakeeper 18 for stability
- SpotZero water maker
- State-of-the-art fuel, exhaust, and steering systems
With 1,800 gallons of fuel and 300 gallons of freshwater capacity, Triple Tail was engineered for reliability and endurance, designed to go the distance in comfort.
Carolina Style Meets Modern Execution
On deck, Triple Tail is fitted with a Palm Beach Towers seven-foot gap tower, Rupp outriggers, faux teak accents, and polished stainless details—a striking combination of traditional Carolina style and modern sophistication.
“With Triple Tail, we set out to design a convertible that merges performance and elegance without compromise,” said company founder and president Tim Winters. “From her custom interior details to her advanced fishing systems, she embodies everything Winter Custom Yachts stands for—craftsmanship, innovation, and timeless style.”
