This 4-Cabin version layout provides privacy for up to four couples. The split forward cabin can be easily converted to a spacious Master Stateroom with the removal of the non-supporting wall divider between the cabins.
The Main salon is very spacious due to her 14' beam and will accommodate quite a few people around the U-shaped settee to starboard and the expandable dining table. The navigation station includes a chart table, electronics and electrical panel.
A well laid out seagoing cook's galley includes plenty of usable counter space. The counters and 3 burner gimballed propane stove all have fiddles. The top loading freezer and from loading fridge have great access. There is of course ample storage in the galley and under the settees.
The huge cockpit with a folding cockpit table offers generous seating in the helm area. The walkthrough onto the sugar scoop/swim platform makes it easy to board the vessel after a swim.
