General Comments About the Boat
A compact, easy to handle, all steel traditional stern boat.
Diesel-fired central heating is fitted.
The internal finish throughout is a light Canadian Ash wood which makes it light inside. Hard-wearing Karndean oak flooring.
At the stern, two small taffrails support a removable bench seat ideal for two. Steps lead down past an open storage cupboard for coats into the bedroom.
The bedroom is fitted with 2 fixed single beds with storage underneath and 2 wardrobes with lots of shelves. A skylight lets in plenty of light.
A central door leads into the walk-through bathroom which is fitted with a pump-out toilet, a corner basin and a large corner shower. Water and waste gauges are fitted as well.
Door into the saloon which contains a comfortable L-shaped dinette with storage underneath which converts into a good-sized double bed. TV mounted on corner cupboard, with DVD player fitted.
Moving forwards into the central gangway galley area which contains a fridge, cooker, sink/drainer and plenty of storage cupboards.
Steps up through double doors lead into the front cockpit which is quite large, with 2 lockers either side fitted with removable cushions.
A gas locker capable of holding two gas bottles is also provided.
