INSIDE STEERING STATION: An unusual feature of the interior is an inside navigation and steering station. It has excellent visibility, a chart table with storage, and a comfortable, forward facing sofa-type helmsman’s seat for three. All electronics and a second set of autopilot helm controls can be mounted within easy reach. The autopilot then serves as a backup steering system. We see no need for the helmsman and friends to have to be exposed to adverse weather conditions. With the quiet engine or under sail, it is really nice to sit inside and watch the water fly by. Another major advantage of the navigation-steering station is that the navigator can see what is going on outside the yacht. This is much better than navigating blind from the depths of the boat. This area can also serve as an informal dinette with a great view.
GALLEY: The galley countertop is a full 8’ long, with a deep double sink, 4 burner CNG stove and oven and a huge amount of locker and drawer space. It is located in the raised area of the cabin, near the inside navigation station. Most large yachts have the galley tucked away deep in the interior, where ventilation and visibility is poor, and where the cook is totally isolated. A great deal of time is spent in and around the galley, cooking, making coffee and looking for cookies. We have placed it where it has a great view in all directions and lots of fresh air. Its location also gives easy access to the dinette, cockpit and nav station. The icebox, located under the navigation station, has 9.3 cubic feet capacity, one of the largest that you will find in any comparable boat. It is extremely easy to reach from the galley. A combination alternating current or engine driven refrigeration/ freezer system can be added.
FORWARD STATEROOM: This area has a very large V berth, 2 seats, a sofa, double hanging locker and private head. A large opening hatch is located directly over the V berth. There is room for a washer-dryer.

The watertight bulkhead can be seen at the forward end of the V berth. Ahead of this bulkhead is a large anchor locker that will hold an amazing amount of equipment.
