ACCOMMODATIONS
The cockpit is comfortable for captain and crew and with a custom teak folding table and teak slatted floor. There are 5 storage lockers. On deck you’ll find a dodger with a clear view toward the bow and side panels. Both have canvas covers for shade. Also included are attachments for rainy days in the cockpit and a larger sun shade.
The Schnickelfritz is set up to accommodate up to 5 with a V-berth in the bow with custom drawer storage. There are three other available sleeping bunks in the main cabin.
The boat was created with cruising in mind. Storage abounds with custom drawers in the V-berth, a large hanging locker opposite the head, and other custom storage drawers and cupboards.
In the main cabin, there is a dinette table with wrap around seating and a pull out seat on the Starboard side for evening meals. The galley features great storage, a gimbled alcohol stove (that requires repair), a double sink and a two compartment built-in ice chest with a cold plate refrigeration system.
