Aft to port is the head with vanity, SS sink, new head and separate shower. Further aft is the salon with straight settee with lee cloth to starboard and a U-shaped dinette to port which converts to a double berth. There is storage overhead, behind and under the seating area. The galley is next aft to starboard and features double-door access to the refrigerator, insulated box for cold or dry storage, SS 3-burner propane stove with oven, large SS steel sink with pressurized hot and cold water as well as manual foot pumps for fresh and saltwater.
