The forward cabin has three opening ports, deck vents, and a single hatch. It features a large double berth on the starboard side, complemented by teak shelves on the headboard and outboard. Storage is generous, thanks to the spacious cedar-lined hanging locker and drawers.

The salon was designed with comfort and safety in mind, equipped with four opening ports, four deck vents, two opening hatches, and overhead handrails. There is a single settee to port and an L-shaped settee to starboard, which pulls out to become a double berth. A drop-leaf table folds down from the forward bulkhead, revealing a storage/wine rack. Cabinets and bookshelves are positioned outboard of both settees, with large storage areas behind and beneath each settee.

The navigation station is located on the starboard side, between the salon and galley. It includes a hinged table with storage underneath, chart storage below the settee, and houses the master AC-DC electric panel and electronics equipment.

Hull, Deck, and Cockpit

Construction - 100% hand-laid fiberglass construction throughout with ISO - NPG type gelcoat for maximum durability. All structural elements and reinforcements are designed to ABS standards. The hull is molded in one piece utilizing a proprietary pressure-fed application system with extra-strong triaxial glass, unified with an engineered molded interior grid structure. The deck laminate is cored with Polycore and attached to an integrally molded hull flange with bolts, lock nuts, and urethane adhesive sealant. All deck hardware is through-bolted with aluminum back plates. The deck features an integrally molded tan slip-resistant coarse diamond pattern and is ivory white to reduce glare.
