Description

With twin screws and bow and stern thrusters, plus the handheld Dockmate remote control,the boat is a breeze to handle around the docks, and the shallow draft allows access to a wider range of anchorages and marinas than many smaller vessels. Two staterooms and two heads provide owners and guests some privacy, while the main salon welcomes all with an inviting feel. The large galley to port sits at the same level as the salon, keeping the chef involved in shipboard activities.
