Vessel walk through
Boarding the vessel from either the port or starboard side deck through a boarding gate in the teak capped handrails you step onto the side decks which are approximately 18" wide. Making your way forward towards the bow deck you will find forward facing queen's seating where one can enjoy the fresh air and panoramic views. Further forward you will find two deck storage boxes, the escape hatch for the crew cabin below and the anchor windlass as well as the anchor davit.
Moving back aft you enter the pilot house and covered aft deck through either the port or starboard wing doors. The pilot house is further closed off by a three panel door. The aft deck consists of two tables, a large aft bench settee and several teak chairs to accommodate a dinner party of up to 8 people. The fully enclosed deck also boasts panoramic views and fully screened windows for an enjoyable evening.
Continuing forward into the pilot house you will find a cabinet immediately to port that houses the washer/dryer unit, to starboard you will find a small bench settee with storage under and magazine/book racks over. Further ahead is a bench helm seat from center to port and an observer/navigator seat to starboard. The helm is centered on the vessel with a traditional wooden spoke wheel, engine gauges flanked by throttle and shift leavers to each side and wind, depth, speed and autopilot just ahead. Fully ahead is a beautiful compass housed in a polished binnacle. Windows all around offer good visibility forward and to the sides whereas visibility aft is hindered by the aft deck seating.
Forward, just starboard of center is the companionway that leads into the large salon area four steps below. The salon is quite large with windows on both the port and starboard sides. There are two lockers aft and more storage to port and starboard under the side decks as well as a bank of drawers under a display cabinet. To port you will find a sofa along with the hidden TV and entertainment center along the forward bulkhead. To starboard you will find two recliners with a cocktail table between and a fully functional wet bar complete with ice maker along the forward bulkhead. Center forward of the salon is the companionway that leads down to the galley, engine room and crew quarters. Center aft you will find the companionway down to the guest and master staterooms as well as the day/guest head.
Down the companionway to the galley you will find the cooker forward, port of center and the crew cabin access beside it to starboard. To your port hand side there is a counter with a deep sink centered and cupboards overhead with cabinets and drawers below. The refrigerator is along the aft bulkhead just port of the companionway stairs from the salon. To the starboard side there is banquette seating along the aft bulkhead, the table is forward and two stools forward of the table. The forward starboard bulkhead houses more counter space, a microwave/convection oven, a dishwasher and more drawers. Along the hull side are opening ports and shelving.
Forward of the galley is the crew cabin. The crew cabin is small yet it has a surprising amount of storage. As you enter there is a shower to starboard and a head and sink to port, forward of the shower are the two bunks with storage under the lower bunk. Forward of the bunks is the forward bulkhead/collision compartment and chain locker. Along the port side forward of the heads is a ladder to climb up to the escape hatch, a bank of drawers ahead of that and a hanging locker with a bench at the most forward part of the cabin.
Moving back to the galley, we lift the companionway staircase which is on gas struts to reveal the engine room access door. The engine room is the same size as the salon and houses all of the mechanical equipment with the exception of the bow and stern thrusters.
As you ascend back into the salon from the galley and make your way aft towards the companionway leading down to the staterooms you will notice that there is a door that conceals the galley from the rest of the the vessel. You will also find some cleverly placed drawers that make use of what would normally be dead space.
Descending the stairs down to the staterooms there is the access to the guest and day head immediately to starboard, this head is complete with shower, sink, and toilet. Moving aft to starboard is the entrance to the starboard stateroom, while the port stateroom is found about midway between the starboard stateroom and the heads on the port side. The guest staterooms are mirror opposites with crisscrossed over under bunks, a bank of drawers flanking the lower bunk and supporting the upper bunk and a hanging locker. There is a drawer under the lower bunk as well for more storage. Ample light comes in through the opening porthole and each state room has an independently controlled air conditioner and heater.
As you continue your way aft you will find the entrance into the master stateroom. This is a very spacious living area with the en suite head located directly to port as you enter the stateroom. This is an identical sized head as the guest/day head with shower, sink and toilet. Moving aft the space opens up as you enter the sleeping area. There are deep hanging lockers to either side with slide out rods, two twin sized beds, one to port and one to starboard with drawers under for storage. Center and against the aft bulkhead is a dresser with mirrors above against the aft wall. These mirrors conceal a cleverly designed escape hatch that exits through the lazarette access above on the aft deck. The master stateroom also has an independent climate control system with both air conditioner and heater.
Welcome aboard!
