Gas locker aft to port. Liferaft stowage to aft of cockpit under teak slatted helm seat. Steering wheel console. GRP footholds. Steering compass on console.

Laminated work surface with moulded wood fiddle also serving as handrail. Stainless steel double sink. Mixer tap with hot and cold pressurised water. Stowage under sink. Cutlery drawer. Wastebin. 12V (90L) refrigeration unit insulated with injected polyurethane foam, with storage baskets. Gimballed stainless steel 2-burner marine stove and stainless steel safety rail also serving as handrail. Stowage lockers for utensils, crockery and food.
Hull & Deck
The hull is single-skinned laminated GRP. A structural inner moulding with unidirectional fabric is bonded and laminated to the hull. Its structural role is important as it takes and absorbs the stresses at pressure points (chain plate tie rods, keel, rudder etc.) and spreads any loads, guaranteeing reduced strain on the hull. The surface to the inner hull makes cleaning easier and provides a better finish.
The deck is balsa sandwich construction (glass fibre, balsa, polyester resin) for an enhanced strength/weight ratio and for good thermal and sound insulation. A roughened non-slip surface increases safety over all areas of movement on deck. An inner deck moulding is sealed to the deck to round off the finish.
