Samson Marine 60

Waterfront Living at ONE°15 Marina, Sentosa Cove

Dynasty Ray is a 2007 Samson Marine 60 houseboat offering an exceptional amount of living space across three levels and the rare opportunity to make your home on the water at ONE°15 Marina in Sentosa Cove.

At 60 feet (18.3 metres) long with a generous 5.4-metre beam, Dynasty Ray feels much more like a waterfront home than a conventional yacht. Full-beam living spaces, two private balconies, five cabins and three bathrooms create a highly practical home for a couple or family looking for an alternative way to live in Singapore.

Importantly, Dynasty Ray is offered with her existing berth and liveaboard licence at ONE°15 Marina transferable to the new owner, providing the opportunity to continue living aboard in one of Singapore’s most desirable waterfront locations.

Wake up directly on the water, enjoy morning coffee overlooking the marina and return home each evening to the relaxed atmosphere of Sentosa Cove – all while remaining within easy reach of the city.

Main Saloon

The main deck is centred around an exceptionally spacious, full-beam open-plan saloon that immediately gives Dynasty Ray the feeling of a home rather than a conventional yacht. Making full use of the houseboat’s generous 5.4-metre beam, there is plenty of room for large sofas, occasional furniture, entertainment equipment and storage without compromising the open character of the space. Large windows along both sides provide natural light and views across the marina, creating a bright and comfortable living area for everyday family life.

At the aft end, wide bi-fold doors can be opened to connect the saloon directly with the full-beam private balcony outside. With the doors open, the interior and exterior effectively become one large waterfront living space – ideal for relaxing in the evening, entertaining friends or simply sitting outside and watching life around the marina. An open staircase leads upwards towards the galley and upper deck, while another staircase provides direct access to the accommodation deck below, placing the main saloon at the centre of the houseboat’s three-level layout.

Galley & Kitchen

Positioned between the main and upper decks, the galley is much closer to a residential kitchen than the compact cooking space normally associated with a yacht. It is designed for genuine everyday use, with generous work surfaces, cupboards and storage together with domestic-style appliances including a full-size refrigerator and freezer, oven, stove, microwave and dishwasher. For an owner planning to live aboard full-time, the ability to cook, store groceries and use familiar household appliances makes a significant difference to day-to-day life.

The galley’s position also works particularly well within the overall layout of Dynasty Ray. Stairs lead directly down into the main saloon, while continuing upwards brings you to the upper saloon and dining area, allowing food to be served easily whether the family is eating upstairs or entertaining guests elsewhere aboard. The separation from the main living areas also means that cooking and food preparation have their own dedicated space rather than occupying part of the saloon. Together with the dedicated laundry room on the accommodation deck below, this is one of several areas where Dynasty Ray has been configured to function as a practical home rather than simply as a recreational boat.

Upper Saloon & Dining Area

Continue upstairs and Dynasty Ray opens into another substantial full-beam living space on the upper deck. Currently arranged as a large dining room, this elevated saloon provides a completely separate area for meals, entertaining and spending time with family or friends. Windows on both sides bring in plenty of natural light and provide an elevated outlook across the surrounding marina, while the generous beam means there is space for a proper dining table and additional furniture without the room feeling confined.

The helm station is positioned at the forward end of this level, preserving the houseboat’s original ability to be operated from an elevated position with good visibility ahead. At the opposite end, another set of wide bi-fold doors opens onto a second full-beam balcony overlooking the marina. This creates another attractive indoor-outdoor entertaining area and a particularly enjoyable place for evening drinks or dinner with the doors open and the marina immediately outside.

Having two substantial saloons on separate levels is one of the features that makes Dynasty Ray work particularly well as a home. One can remain the principal family lounge while the other serves as a dining and entertaining space, or the upper level could be adapted to suit the next owner’s lifestyle – perhaps incorporating a home office, additional lounge area or children’s space alongside the dining area.

Five-Cabin Accommodation

The lower accommodation deck provides a surprisingly versatile five-cabin layout, making Dynasty Ray particularly well suited to family life aboard.

At the aft end is the impressive full-beam owner’s suite, occupying the entire width of the houseboat and providing considerably more space than a typical yacht cabin. The owner’s suite has its own private en-suite bathroom with shower and toilet, creating a comfortable and private retreat away from the main living spaces above.

Moving forward along the port side are three additional cabins. Two adjoining cabins are currently used as children’s bedrooms. Both are approximately the same size and are connected by an open doorway, creating a practical dedicated area for children while still providing two separate sleeping spaces.

A third port-side cabin provides a single berth and offers useful flexibility. It could continue as an additional guest or family cabin, or could be particularly useful as accommodation for a live-in maid, helper or crew member.

On the starboard side is a dedicated laundry and utility room with washing facilities and useful household storage. A separate day head is also located on this side, incorporating its own shower and toilet and serving the three smaller cabins as well as visiting guests.

At the forward end of the accommodation deck is the VIP cabin, providing a second substantial double cabin with its own private en-suite bathroom with shower and toilet.

Altogether, the lower deck provides five cabins and three bathrooms, with two private en-suite double cabins at opposite ends of the houseboat, three additional cabins between them and dedicated laundry and storage space. It is a layout designed around practical everyday living rather than simply maximising the number of occasional sleeping berths.

A Home on the Water

Life aboard Dynasty Ray is less about conventional boating and much more about having your own home on the water.

Her 60-foot length and unusually generous beam create substantial internal volume, while the multi-level arrangement allows different parts of the houseboat to serve different purposes. There is space to cook, dine, entertain, work from home or simply find a quiet corner away from the rest of the family.

Step outside and the experience changes again. Two private balconies overlook the marina, while the sights, sounds and fresh air of life on the water become part of everyday living.

Combined with the transferable ONE°15 Marina berth and liveaboard licence, Dynasty Ray offers the opportunity to purchase not simply a houseboat, but an established waterfront home in Sentosa Cove.

Island Living in Sentosa Cove

Living aboard Dynasty Ray at ONE°15 Marina places you in the heart of Sentosa Cove while remaining within easy reach of the rest of Singapore.

Step ashore and restaurants, cafés and the waterfront surroundings of Sentosa Cove are close at hand, while the marina itself provides the facilities and atmosphere of one of Singapore’s best-known yachting communities.

It is a lifestyle that combines two worlds: the convenience of living in Singapore with the feeling of returning to an island and marina environment at the end of the day.

For someone looking beyond the conventional apartment or condominium, Dynasty Ray presents a rare opportunity to make waterfront living part of everyday life.
