Above decks you will fall in love with the cockpit and the overall room and comfort. High coamings make for comfortable seating while underway and for entertaining dockside. Stern seats offer additional seating and that perfect perch while under sail. The walk-thru transom offers easy access to the swim platform and dinghy loading.
Wide side decks, well placed handrails and inboard shrouds make for safe passage fore and aft while docking and anchoring. Forward is a double bow roller, recessed anchor well and electric windlass making anchoring or mooring retrieval a snap.
Below decks is all about cruising comfort. The main salon is open and airy with generous natural light and ventilation. Beautiful wood finishes and the cream colored ultra leather cushions make for a very inviting interior. To port is a small table and two very comfortable seats.
