Accommodations & Walkthrough

Beginning at the bow, there is an anchor locker large enough to accommodate two complete anchor rodes. 

The Vee Berth follows aft with an opening port and a large opening hatch that combine with two reading lights and 2-12V fans provide great ventilation and light. There is lots of storage with a hanging locker on port of entrance, shelves on both hull sides and 2 cabinets under berth. Every space is used.

A large Head is aft on starboard with sink, shower, teak towel holder and mirror and featuring an electric flush commode. Again, there is great light and ventilation with an opening port and dorade.

The Main Saloon follows with an “L” shaped settee on starboard that converts to a double berth. Across on port is a straight settee long enough to serve as a comfortable single berth. There is a shelf and cabinet on both hull sides above the settees and a large hanging locker forward by the entrance to the vee berth providing lots of extra storage. The starboard side dining table folds up and stores on the forward bulkhead when not in use adding lots of open space. The table can comfortably sit up to 6 family and friends. The saloon has an opening hatch, 5 opening ports and 4 reading lights for light and ventilation. For safety, there are teak hand holds on both sides of Saloon

A “U” shaped Galley follows aft on port with double sink, 2 burner propane stove & oven, large icebox, and lots of good storage above and below the counter. 

The Quarter Berth is aft on starboard and is large enough for a couple to comfortably sleep. The good sized forward facing Nav Desk unfolds upwards and an accordion pocket door pulls out by the companionway to create a private dressing and sleeping cabin.

The deep Cockpit provides security & is long enough for sailing, entertaining and sleeping. It is protected from the elements with a dodger, bimini, connecting panel and full enclosure when weather calls for extra protection. A fold down swim ladder off the transom makes getting in and out of the water or dinghy easy and safe.
