---MODEL OVERVIEW / FEATURES---

The galley is immediately to port at the bottom of the steps. There you find a two-burner stove. A deep and large icebox and a single stainless steel sink with a cold water faucet. There is ample storage in the galley area to store loads of food and whatnot. There is a louvered cabinet under the sink and drawers under the stove. Access to the galley sink through-hull fitting is easy to reach under the sink. Plus sliding door storage behind the icebox and stove. The electrical panel is also situated behind the sink.

Moving forward on the port side from the galley you find a settee that doubles as a single berth. Also nice storage facilities behind and below the cushions along with a shelf which goes the entire length of the settee. Some more joinery work along this shelf would have a been welcomed feature. As it is we have a microwave oven mounted in this space near the galley.

Directly across is the head. A small but perfectly functional space. There is a stainless sink, a marine toilet, and plenty more storage behind the head itself and below the sink. Ours has a large mirror above the sink. There are three pull out drawers and sliding door cabinets, along with another louvered door for easy access to the sink drain and head through-hull fittings.

Forward again is the v-berth. It feels a little on the short side, the port side being the shorter due to the nav station slash hanging locker. The cushions are in three sections to access more storage below the v-berth and provide a filler to extend the sleeping area over the three pull out drawers. At the very front, there is access via a pull-out panel to the wiring and such.

Moving aft now past the head we return to the starboard side settee which pulls out for a double berth. There is also a rather unique table that folds up and slides out of the way on the bulkhead here. More storage behind the back cushion and some under the bottom cushion. The freshwater tank is located under the settee as well.

Per the boat's owner -
"He had the boat hauled when he bought it in 2014.

The following are the only known issues with the boat:

1) Transmission requires adjustment such that reverse gear fully engages. Reverse functions, but the gear shift won't lock.

2) The heat exchanger needs to be replaced in the freshwater cooling kit - cost $725

3) The accessory belt needs more tension ( installed a new belt when he replaced one of the water pumps and didn't get it as tight as necessary).

It may be ready for bottom paint.
