INTERIOR

  Entering through the companionway and down three easy steps one enters the large well-lit saloon. 

  The well-equipped galley is to port conveniently close to both the companionway and the saloon ideally set up whether providing meals at sea or entertaining.

  To starboard is the traditional-sized navigation station complete with a full set of electronics and space for traditional charts. An ideal spot to plan new adventures, monitor the progress of a passage or function as the office.

  The saloon features a dining table that adjusts from coffee table size to dinner party size. It also converts to another berth and extensive storage. There are large windows and opening hatches to ensure excellent lighting and ventilation.

  The very comfortable master cabin is located forward to ensure excellent ventilation and privacy. It has a large walkaround bed and even more storage. The bed is on hydraulic struts to access the massive storage below. The master cabin has its own ensuite head with shower.

  The guest cabin is aft and offers remarkable storage for a vessel of this size.
