The Port side guest cabin features a large L-shaped seating area aft that's convertible to a double berth with filler cushions. A second overhead bunk folds down from the aft bulkhead and is secured when not in use with dual barrel latches. A built in desk forward with bookshelf and drawer storage allows for an office or study accommodation when not being used as a guest stateroom.

Guest Head and Laundry

Forward of the galley to Starboard is the Washer / Dryer locker and access to guest head. Features include marine head, dedicated shower stall, corian top vanity, bulkhead locker, opening port, and ceramic tile floor.

Pilothouse

A companionway staircase offers access to the spacious pilothouse, with a comfortable Llebroc helm chair at the centerline helm.
