Accommodations-Vessel Walkthrough

Entry into the salon is via the starboard door at the lower steering station or a door off of the aft sundeck. The salon/galley area features a large salon and a U-shaped full service galley is aft to port. The full galley offers a huge amount of storage and all the amenities for meal preparation.

Down and forward to port is a laundry locker that abounds with stowage for gear, clothes, linens, etc. Across, to starboard, is the large guest head with an electric toilet, basin and separate shower stall with a teak seat and grate incorporated. Also, forward are the wide and comfortable v-berths with hanging lockers to port and starboard . Contributing to the classic feel of the Island Gypsy styling is the teak planked ceiling outboard the v-berths. Aft of the salon and down the aft companionway, is the full beamed, fully accommodating master stateroom with a full queen-sized berth, matching night stands and port/starboard hanging lockers, stowage and drawers. Uniquely incorporated into the companionway to the master stateroom is a handy pocket broom closet and a door leading to the engine room under the stairway. In the forward area of the stateroom to starboard is a desk/vanity with a drawer and mirror. The master head is forward to port and generously sized with electric toilet and a separate shower stall.
