Accommodations

Open plan interior:

Starting forward is a collision bulkhead with chain locker & sail stowage. A second collision bulkhead was added recently. Moving aft is a large sail stowage area that has been modified to have a large berth off to port. This is removable if desired. This makes this large space into a great owner cabin for cruising. A small padded bench has been added to starboard. It has a very big center-line opening hatch that lets in lots of light, but also makes it easy to get sails in and out.

Immediately aft to port is an enclosed head with wash basin & hand-held shower. Tool storage & wet gear locker opposite to starboard. 

Moving aft into the main salon, port forward is the galley. A large counter aft of the sinks has 2 leaves that lift up to enlarge the dining area/table. There are port and starboard settees (with new foam in 2018) in the main salon. Moving aft, opposite the companionway, port and starboard are 2 seats for donning wet gear etc. with bins behind. Opposite the navigation area port and starboard are 2 upper and lower pipe berths. All the way aft are 2 additional pipe berths and a third collision bulkhead.
