Full Specification

Accommodations

Accessed via a teak-trimmed companionway over a secure bridge deck, the interior features warm teak joinery, a teak and holly sole, and off-white padded overhead panels secured with removable teak battens for easy access to wiring and deck hardware.

Forward Cabin:

The private forward stateroom features a generous V-berth measuring 6’5” long and nearly 6’ wide. Shelving runs outboard beneath the deck edge, with a three-drawer chest to port and two hanging/storage lockers to starboard. An overhead hatch and opening port provide excellent ventilation.

Forward Head:

Located just aft to port is the forward head. The sink is currently disconnected and the toilet has been removed (and plumbing plugged), as the space has been used primarily for storage by the current owners.

Main Salon:

The spacious salon offers an L-shaped settee to port and a straight settee to starboard, both suitable as sea berths. Storage shelves and bookcases are located outboard of both settees. The teak dining table comfortably seats six and lowers to form an additional berth using a custom cushion. Stainless steel water tanks are located beneath the settees.

Galley:

Aft to port is a large U-shaped galley designed for safe use underway. Equipment includes a Princess “Gourmet II” three-burner propane stove with oven (new 2014) protected by a stainless crash bar, double stainless sinks, and a Frigoboat keel-cooled refrigerator/freezer. Storage is abundant, with cabinetry outboard, lockers beneath the stove and sinks, and four drawers adjacent to the refrigeration unit.

Navigation Station:

Opposite the galley to starboard is a forward-facing navigation station with a large top-opening chart table, a 4” deep chart drawer, and additional storage lockers below.

Aft Stateroom:

Located aft to port, the aft cabin features a large double berth with drawer storage beneath.

Aft Head:

Opposite to starboard, the aft head is ideal for use underway or when returning from the cockpit. It features a stainless steel sink, a large separate shower stall, storage lockers outboard, and an opening port above the toilet.

Deck & Hull
