Shenanigans - Salon and Galley

Shenanigans galley-up configuration is one of her most appealing features.

Located on the main living level and surrounded by windows, the galley keeps meal preparation connected to the salon rather than isolating the cook belowdecks.

  • Teak cabinetry and trim

The adjoining salon benefits from large opening windows, comfortable seating, teak cabinetry, and excellent natural light, creating a main living area that feels considerably larger than many boats of similar length.

Electronics and Navigation

Shenanigans has dual navigation stations allowing operation from either the protected lower pilothouse or the flybridge.

Equipment includes:

  • Garmin multifunction displays at both helms
  • Garmin radar
  • AIS

  • Garmin multifunction display
  • VHF radio
  • Engine instrumentation

Shenanigans - Deck and Exterior

The exterior layout of the Mainship 430 was designed with practical cruising in mind.

Wide walkaround side decks allow relatively easy movement from the stern to the bow without requiring crew to climb through or around interior spaces. Substantial perimeter railings and conveniently located handholds provide additional security while underway or working around the boat.

Features include:

  • Wide walkaround side decks
  • Substantial perimeter railings
  • Port and starboard boarding access

For a cruising couple, the combination of walkaround decks and dual helm stations can make docking, setting fenders, handling lines, and navigating locks considerably more convenient.

  • New 15 hp Suzuki outboard (2024)
