Boat Layout

The chain locker forward is followed by a 6’2” V-berth, with open shelf storage above and below each berth. Next aft to starboard is the head, with storage shelves behind; to port the hanging locker with a shelf on top.

Next aft is the main cabin. To starboard is a small shelf & drawer storage area followed by a settee with table that makes into a double berth, with book storage behind. On the aft starboard bulkhead is access to the wet hanging locker, which is located to starboard in the engine room. To port in the main cabin is first the navigation station chart table with a large drawer, chart storage and shelving below, along with a small shelf and radar above. Aft of the nav station is the U-shaped galley, with center-mounted diesel Dickenson stove forward, double SS sinks aft. On the side is generous counter space with under-counter storage bins in each corner, storage bins behind, together with a drawer and two storage bins under the counter mid-section. Custom-built storage for tableware is above the sinks and for silverware is to the left of the sinks.

Aft and up a 5-step ladder is the center cockpit, with U-shaped seating around the steering pedestal and storage lockers underneath the seating. Below the cockpit is the engine room, providing access to all parts of the engine. The cockpit has a removable floor to facilitate engine replacement. Batteries are located in the engine room, along with both fuel tanks.

Aft of the cockpit is a separate cabin with a double berth to port and storage to starboard. Aft of the aft cabin is a storage lazarette that also provides access to the steering ram.
