At 157 feet with a 28.25-foot beam and 7.5-foot draft, this full-displacement vessel combines the proven seaworthiness of Trinity's construction with an interior that has been methodically renewed across every system and surface.

Built to MCA and ABS standards, NICOLE EVELYN is powered by twin Caterpillar 3512B diesel engines—both receiving complete top-end rebuilds in 2022 with all OEM components, new turbos, injectors, aftercoolers, and valve guides. Current engine hours stand at 10,400 as of October 2025, with the top-end work performed at 9,200 hours.

Twin Reintjes 3.048:1 reduction gearboxes received complete overhauls in 2022, including new rear main seals and all associated hardware. Two new Caterpillar 99kW generators installed in 2022 carry Platinum Warranty coverage through September 2027, with combined running hours of 5,000 as of October 2025.

The accommodation plan sleeps 11 guests across five staterooms plus crew quarters capable of berthing 9–10 crew members. The full-beam on-deck master stateroom features six oversized oval windows, a king-size centerline bed, separate his-and-hers baths with a pass-through shower and jet tub arrangement, dual cedar-lined walk-in closets, and marble-topped built-in furnishings. Below deck, four guest staterooms—three with king berths and one twin stateroom with a Pullman bed addition (2023)—each feature mahogany joinery with burl inlays, entertainment centers, marble flooring, granite-topped en-suite heads, and cedar-lined closet storage. Three crew cabins with over-under bunks and en-suite heads provide dedicated crew accommodations, with a separate crew mess featuring a large L-shaped settee, Corian countertops, and comprehensive galley facilities.

NICOLE EVELYN: A 157-Foot Trinity Yachts Tri-Deck Motor Yacht with Comprehensive Recent Refits and Luxury Accommodations
Overview
NICOLE EVELYN represents a fully realized expression of large-yacht cruising and entertaining, combining Trinity Yachts' proven Tri-Deck design with an extensive interior modernization and mechanical refresh spanning three years. Built in 2005 to MCA and ABS standards, this 157-foot motor yacht accommodates 11 guests across five staterooms plus dedicated crew quarters, supported by twin Caterpillar 3512B diesel engines and comprehensive ship's systems. Located in Highlands, New Jersey, NICOLE EVELYN cruises at 14 knots, achieves a maximum speed of 19 knots, and carries 16,700 gallons of fuel and 2,700 gallons of fresh water, enabling extended offshore passages with a range of 2,600 nautical miles. The vessel's value proposition rests on the convergence of three factors: Trinity's time-tested hull and structural design; a thorough mechanical restoration including top-end engine rebuilds, new generator sets, and system overhauls completed between 2022 and 2026; and a comprehensive interior update that introduced new soft goods, headliners, flooring, cabinetry finishes, and audio-visual systems throughout. A 20-year ABS special survey was completed in January 2026, and a full exterior paint job by Rybovich in 2023 restored the vessel's presentation. This combination of structural integrity, recent mechanical work, and refreshed interiors positions NICOLE EVELYN for immediate deployment without major capital expenditures.
Layout and Deck Design
Trinity's Tri-Deck configuration creates a vertical spatial hierarchy that maximizes usable deck area while maintaining a manageable beam of 28.25 feet. The main deck serves as the social and operational hub, anchored by a full-width foyer with dual hinged swing doors that open to an unobstructed walkthrough from port to starboard. This foyer connects the on-deck master suite forward to the main salon and dining area aft, with a spiral staircase providing access to four below-deck guest staterooms. The pilothouse, positioned forward on the bridge deck, features 180-degree panoramic visibility through nine large windows and dual wing stations on the observation deck with Portuguese bridge access. The upper aft deck extends the entertaining footprint with teak decks, built-in seating, custom marble-top buffets, and a Triconfort teak dining table that seats six. Automatic sliding doors connect this space to the skylounge, which itself features a full mahogany bar with refrigerated wine storage, a Samsung 50-inch television, and access to both the upper sundeck and main aft deck via spiral teak stairs with stainless grab rails. The flybridge and sun deck occupy the highest point, incorporating a full-service L-shaped marble-top bar with four fixed stainless bar stools, a new Jacuzzi tub forward with lounging area, and an air-conditioned day head. The aft swim platform includes a hydraulic Marquipt passerelle on the starboard side, dual stairways with teak steps, an oversized teak sole, underwater lights, and hot and cold showers. The deck layout supports tender and toy deployment via a Nautical Structures 3500-pound davit on the sundeck and a 1100-pound hydraulic crane on the bow, with jet ski cradles on the foredeck. Deck equipment includes a Muir hydraulic anchor windlass with capstans, stockless anchors, oversized bosun lockers, and custom oversized sun pads on the forward deck, port and starboard.
Helm and Electronics
The pilothouse integrates navigation, ship's monitoring, and communication systems sufficient for ocean-going operations. The helm station features a large crescent-shaped settee, a Stidd adjustable helm chair, a custom cherry and stainless steering ship's wheel, and a chart table with chart drawers. Navigation electronics include two Furuno 96-mile X-Band radars with ARPA, two Furuno Navigator GP-150 GPS units, Furuno RD-30 displays, and a Furuno FCV 1200L depth sounder. A Sperry Marine NaviPilot 4000 autopilot, Sperry Marine gyro compass, and Sperry Marine rudder order and angle indicators provide steering automation and feedback. Transas and Nobeltec navigation software run on multiple VEI monitors—two 23-inch and three 18-inch displays—enabling chart plotting, route management, and system integration. Communication systems include a Furuno VHF FM8500, an Icom 602 VHF, and a GMDSS station with current certification. Satellite connectivity is provided by a SeaTel Direct TV system, VSAT satellite systems, and Starlink. Engine management relies on two Caterpillar digital engine displays, separate engine start/stop switches with emergency stops, and a RexRoth engine control binnacle. Two B&G 20/20 displays provide redundant system monitoring. The Quantum bow thruster control and Quantum zero-speed stabilizer controls are integrated into the helm layout, allowing the captain to manage dynamic positioning and stabilization from the primary steering station. Crestron lighting system upgrades throughout the vessel enable centralized and zone-based lighting control from the pilothouse and remote locations. An Elbex CCTV security system with adjustable cameras and touchscreen monitors in the pilothouse and crew areas provides full-vessel surveillance. The complete AVIT overhaul in 2024 modernized stereo systems, controllers, and iPad integration throughout the vessel.
Accommodations and Interior Design
The on-deck master stateroom occupies the full beam forward, offering six oversized oval windows, a king-size centerline bed, and dual walk-in cedar-lined closets. His-and-hers en-suite baths feature marble vanities, dual decorative sinks, custom fixtures, an oversized marble shower in the his bath, and a round marble Jacuzzi tub in the hers bath, complete with a bidet. Built-in nightstands with marble tops, built-in dressers port and starboard with marble tops, and a built-in radius vanity with bench seat on the port side provide abundant storage. An upholstered suede bolstered bulkhead behind the berth, high-gloss white paneling with silk inserts, and an entertainment center with television, cabinets, and bookshelves establish the interior aesthetic. A Lucite desk with lamp and chair in the entryway companionway provides office functionality, and two Sub-Zero drawer refrigerators maintain beverage and snack service. A Burg-Watcher safe secures valuables. Four guest staterooms below deck accommodate the remaining 10 guests. The layout consists of one twin stateroom forward starboard, one king stateroom port forward, and two identical king staterooms located aft. All feature mahogany joinery with burl inlays, entertainment centers, two oval-shaped portholes with sliding Shoji screens, ample drawer storage, cedar-lined closet storage, ensuite heads, and dual nightstands with mahogany tops. New marble flooring, granite countertops in all guest baths, marble flooring in guest baths, and updated audio-visual equipment were installed during the recent refits. A service station centerline in the guest accommodation companionway includes two Sub-Zero drawer-type refrigerators and an interior storage closet. Crew quarters forward of the engine room include three cabins with two over-under bunks and ensuite baths in each cabin, accommodating 9 to 10 crew members. The first officer's cabin is slightly larger than the two forward cabins. The crew mess features an L-shaped settee to port, Corian countertops, ample shelving and cabinetry storage, a single basin sink, and a Samsung 50-inch HDTV. A Siemens ship's alarm panel display, CCTV system on a 32-inch HDTV, medical storage locker, and Sub-Zero refrigerator support crew operations. A laundry center adjacent to the crew quarters includes overhead storage cabinetry, a Corian countertop, a fold-down folding table, two Miele washers, two Miele dryers, and a sink.
Main Salon and Dining

What type of vessel is the 2005 Trinity Yachts Tri-Deck, and what is her primary design purpose?
NICOLE EVELYN is a 157-foot tri-deck motor yacht built by Trinity Yachts, a builder known for custom luxury displacement vessels. The tri-deck configuration provides three distinct entertaining and accommodation levels—main deck, upper deck, and flybridge—making her well-suited for extended cruising with guests and crew. Her design emphasizes comfort, entertaining space, and seaworthiness rather than speed, with a cruising speed of 14 knots and maximum speed of 19 knots. She was built to MCA and ABS standards, reflecting her capability for ocean passages and extended offshore operation.
What are the propulsion specifications and engine performance capabilities of this Trinity Yachts?
NICOLE EVELYN is powered by twin Caterpillar 3512B diesel engines that received complete top-end rebuilds in 2022 with all OEM Caterpillar parts, including new turbos, injectors, aftercoolers, and valve guides. As of October 2025, the engines have 10,400 total hours with the top-end work performed at 9,200 hours. The engines drive through Reintjes 3.048:1 reduction gearboxes that were also completely overhauled in 2022. This propulsion package delivers a cruising speed of 14 knots and a maximum speed of 19 knots, with a fuel capacity of 16,700 gallons supporting a range of approximately 2,600 nautical miles.
How many guest staterooms and crew cabins does this yacht accommodate, and what is the sleeping capacity?
NICOLE EVELYN accommodates 11 guests across five sophisticated staterooms: one full-beam on-deck master suite, three king staterooms below deck, and one twin stateroom below deck. Each guest stateroom features mahogany joinery with burl inlays, an entertainment center with television, ensuite head with marble vanity and granite countertops, dual nightstands, ample cedar-lined closet storage, and two oval-shaped portholes with sliding Shoji screens. Separate crew quarters below the galley provide three cabins with two over-under bunks and ensuite baths in each, plus a crew mess with large settee, allowing the vessel to accommodate 9–10 crew members.
What makes the on-deck master stateroom unique, and what amenities are included?
The full-beam on-deck master stateroom spans the vessel's width and features six oversized oval windows providing panoramic views. The centerline king-size bed is upholstered in suede with a bolstered bulkhead behind it. The suite includes his-and-hers marble baths with a pass-through shower on the his side and a separate jet tub on the hers side, dual decorative sinks, bidet, and marble vanities. Additional amenities include dual walk-in cedar-lined closets, built-in entertainment center with television, two Sub-Zero drawer refrigerators, a Burg-Watcher safe, marble-topped nightstands and dressers on both port and starboard sides, and a private office area with Lucite desk and chair.
What is the layout and functionality of the main salon and formal dining area?
The main salon features an L-shaped full-service bar with marble top, stainless sink, GE refrigerator, Scotsman icemaker, and sliding window access to the aft deck. Nine large windows on both port and starboard sides provide abundant natural light, and a 58-inch HDTV mounted on an electric hi-lo lift serves as the entertainment center. The space includes custom mahogany joinery with cherry accents and Burle inlays, two custom upholstered sofas, two armless chairs, and a custom marble cocktail table. The formal dining area forward seats up to ten guests at a quartz table with high gloss cherry trim and is flanked by marble-topped buffets on either side. Four frosted sliding glass doors on each side provide complete privacy for dining.
What electronics and navigation systems are installed aboard NICOLE EVELYN?
The pilothouse is equipped with comprehensive navigation and communication systems including two Furuno 96-mile X-Band radars with ARPA, two Furuno Navigator GP-150 GPS units, Furuno RD-30 display, Furuno FCV 1200L depth sounder, and Furuno VHF FM8500 radio. The autopilot is a Sperry Marine NaviPilot 4000 with Sperry Marine gyro compass. Display systems include two VEI 23-inch monitors and three VEI 18-inch monitors running Transas and Nobeltec navigation software. Additional systems include two B&G 20/20 displays, GMDSS station with current certification, SeaTel Direct TV system, VSAT satellite systems, and Starlink. The helm features Quantum bow thruster controls, Quantum zero-speed stabilizer controls, and two Caterpillar digital engine displays with separate emergency stops.
How does the zero-speed stabilizer system enhance comfort, and what recent work has been completed?
NICOLE EVELYN is equipped with a Quantum zero-speed stabilizer system that operates effectively even when the vessel is stationary or moving slowly, significantly reducing roll and improving comfort during extended cruising or when anchored. The stabilizer system received a complete overhaul in 2022 with new seals installed, and the power pack features two 3-phase hydraulic pumps and a Quantum heat exchanger. This system is particularly valuable for extended offshore passages and anchoring in variable sea conditions, allowing guests to remain comfortable throughout the day and night regardless of sea state.
What outdoor entertaining and relaxation spaces are available on the upper decks?
The skylounge is a full-beam space featuring a mahogany bar with marble countertop, mirrored backsplash, refrigerated wine storage, and built-in entertainment center with 50-inch Samsung television. The upper aft deck is accessed via spiral teak stairs and includes a Triconfort teak dining table seating six, teak settees with cushions, four teak chaise lounge chairs with ottomans, and custom marble-topped storage cabinets. The sun deck features a full-service L-shaped marble-top bar with four fixed stainless steel bar stools, a new forward Jacuzzi tub with lounging area, air-conditioned day head, Thermal Engineering gas grill, and an 11-piece custom teak outdoor furniture set. A Nautical Structures 3,500-pound davit on the sun deck provides lifting capability for tenders and jet skis up to 20 feet.
What tender and water toys are included with the vessel, and what deck equipment supports their use?

The vessel received a complete exterior paint job by Rybovich in 2023, new bottom paint and prop speed in 2026, new carpeting and padding throughout in 2023, and new headliners and soft goods. The AVIT system underwent complete overhaul in 2024 including stereos, controllers, and iPads. A 20-year ABS special survey was completed in January 2026.
