Walkthrough

Easily board through port or starboard boarding gates to wide walkways running both fore and aft. Enter the saloon through sliding doors on either port or starboard side. Inside, the saloon features an L-shaped settee with a teak table to port that converts to a berth, while the lower helm station is to starboard. Aft of the helm is an L-shaped galley conveniently positioned for extended stays on board or entertaining. 

Moving forward and down three steps, you’ll find the guest stateroom with a spacious V-berth, two portlights, and an overhead opening hatch for natural light and ventilation. This cabin includes an ensuite head with toilet and vanity sink. 

Heading aft and down three steps from the saloon brings you to the master stateroom. This generous cabin features a walk-around queen berth, built-in nightstands, abundant locker and drawer storage, and a washer and dryer. Additional light and air flow in through an overhead hatch and opening windows. The ensuite head includes a toilet, vanity sink, and a separate stall shower with an opening portlight. 

From the side deck, step up two steps to the mid-deck area, which includes a grill station and a folding mast, perfect for low-clearance passages. 

Two more steps lead to the flybridge, which is fully enclosed with a Bimini top. The helm is to starboard, complemented by custom seating for guests. 

Finally, the aft deck includes a gate and steps that lead down to the swim platform, making water access easy and convenient.
