Salon, Galley and Pilothouse

Step aboard through the varnished teak sliding salon doors and into an inviting salon defined by generous seating, warm teak joinery, and a refined, well-kept finish throughout. Just forward, the wraparound galley shares the same level as the salon and provides abundant counter space, excellent storage, and an open connection to the pilothouse above—an ideal arrangement for entertaining, cruising, or extended time aboard. A few steps up to starboard, the pilothouse features a well-designed helm station with a Stidd black leather captain’s chair, thoughtfully arranged electronics and controls, and overhead engine instrumentation for a clean, unobstructed view. To port, a large dining settee with seating on three sides creates a comfortable gathering space for meals or conversation underway. Aft in the pilothouse, steps lead to the bridge, with additional access from the cockpit.

Accommodations

A staircase to starboard in the pilothouse leads forward amidships to the private accommodations. Forward, the VIP stateroom is beautifully appointed with a centerline queen berth, elegant teak cabinetry, and a mirrored vanity, creating a warm and comfortable retreat for guests. To port, the ensuite head includes a full shower, white cabinetry, and white Corian countertops. Down a few steps from the stairway, the full-beam master stateroom offers rich custom teak cabinetry, a queen berth to starboard, and a spacious ensuite head with white cabinetry, a full-size shower, and a large Corian sink area with excellent counter space.

Bridge

The bridge is exceptionally well suited for both operation and guest enjoyment, offering excellent visibility underway and generous seating throughout. At the helm are two Bentley helm chairs, with a forward-facing sofa just aft and an additional sofa to starboard facing port, creating a comfortable and social space for owners and guests alike. Electronics and controls are thoughtfully arranged for ease of navigation and operation, while the overall presentation reflects a high level of care. The passenger portion of the flybridge is protected by a black Sunbrella Bimini top and fully enclosed with isinglass, which can be removed and stowed as desired. Aft, a large open deck provides additional room for lounging, while the dinghy is stored to port and served by a Nick Jackson davit for easy launching and retrieval.

Engine Room and Systems

Access to the lazarette is through a large cockpit hatch, where the first impression is one of cleanliness and care, from the rust-free steering hardware to the clean bilges. This space also provides storage for lines and fenders, along with the diesel heater and hot water heater. Moving forward through the aft engine room bulkhead, the generator is located to starboard in a sound shield, with freshly installed batteries to port and organized space for spare parts, filters, and onboard supplies. Forward are the engines, set in a clean, well-maintained machinery space with ample room for inspection and service. Outboard of the engines are the air-conditioning units and inverter, both easily accessible with good lighting for maintenance. Farther forward are two 350-gallon fuel tanks with sight gauges, along with a ladder leading to a galley hatch for convenient forward engine-room access.
