Accomodation walk through:

Cruising boat designed to sleep 5 in comfort. The 6’1” headroom and 9’ 6” beam provide room that is unequalled in a 26’ boat. A solid fuel fireplace ensures that the cabin stays cozy even when it’s cold outside.

The master stateroom forward features a large V-Berth, with insert and storage underneath & on shelves. An overhead hatch ensures ample light & ventilation The head features teak access doors, a hanging locker on the port side, a sink on starboard with ample storage below & behind the sink. The main salon features a very large, bulkhead mounted table that folds up & stores out of the way when not in use.

The galley is located aft, has a large, well insulated icebox, a 2 burner propane stove and ample storage. Ample ventilation & light is provided by 1 opening hatches (v-berth & head) and 6 large ports (2 opening in the head).

The self draining cockpit will seat 6 in comfort on the new, in 2009 cockpit cushions. The transom mounted swim ladder, split backstay and stern rail with opening makes it a breeze to get back aboard after a refreshing swim.
