Accommodation and layout
The interior of this yacht is both welcoming and comfortable thanks to the contrast between the white bulkheads and high gloss varnish finish to the mahogany faced cabinet work. Classic blue fabric covering the well upholstered seating finishes the effect nicely while the natural light coming through the many port lights and deck hatches gives a feeling of space even on the dullest of days.
The yacht sleeps 6 over 3 cabins with a spacious fore peak double, two singles in the saloon and a further double in the aft cabin. The saloon is entered by a series of steps from the companionway and features a well equipped galley to starboard complete with stainless steel sink, hot and cold pressurised water, top loading ice box and a gas fuelled 2-burner hob with oven and grill. Plentiful work surfaces and storage cupboards make extended periods afloat possible as there is lots of room for provisions and utensils.
Opposite galley is a forward facing chart table/Nav station with chart storage table, chart reading light and 12/220V electric panel. Aft of the chart table is the large heads compartment with moulded sink unit, mirrored vanity unit and sea toilet with holding tank.
Both the forward cabin and aft cabin have their own door providing privacy. The both feature 2.00M berths allowing two adults to sleep in comfort. The aft cabin has a hanging locker whilst the fore cabin has hull mounted lockers and shelves.
Main saloon has a central wooden dining table with drop leaf section on starboard side. There is a settee/berth either side and hull mounted storage cupboards along the hull. All cabins feature ample ventilation provided by opening hatches and 12V lighting.
