SORCERER is a three stateroom, three head layout.  Pilothouse is raised with good visibility; station is located forward in the main salon on the port side.  Opposite is a U-shaped settee.  Important for long distance sailors, or perhaps when sailing in inclement weather.

The Pilot House has remarkable lighting throughout as the owner chose custom hatches and port lights to maximize the light.  Whether you are sitting at the U-shaped dining table or at the Navigation seat, you will have a great panoramic view of the exterior horizon.  The custom teak interior adds warmth and sophistication that makes SORCERER unique. Headroom in the salon is approximately 6' 5".  There is a TV and DVD player in the Salon.   Underneath the raised floor in the center, you'll find great access to the engine and generator with plenty of room to work.

Moving forward, there is a sea berth cabin to starboard which is a perfect wide, twin berth while sailing. Across from that to port is a head which also serves the salon as a Day Head.

The forward cabin is spacious with drawers and full-length hanging lockers.  The center line double bunk is accessible easily from either side. The ensuite head has a bath with separate shower stall.  All mattresses were replaced approximately 2022.

Moving aft along the port side of the salon and down two steps is a very functional galley.  The galley is equipped with a 3-burner stove/oven, a deep freezer, a day refrigerator, a microwave oven and plenty of pantry storage and more than ample storage for plates, glasses, and all your culinary needs.  There is an Extra freezer under the Salon seats, for longer distance provisioning.  Plenty of counterspace and easy accessibility to the salon and the cockpit.

The owner's cabin is aft of the galley and offers an amazing amount of room as it is the full width of the boat.  The bed is on centerline, closer to midships makes passage making more comfortable. Headroom in the Master is approximately 6' 2".   There is full width dresser with deep drawers, a settee, large hanging lockers, a desk and vanity.  The cabin also has an ensuite head with a separate shower stall. 

The entire interior is equipped with dimming lights, electric heads, Ocean air blinds and screens. Custom carpets throughout the boat.  Spare leather swatch in case a Salon seat needed a repair.  Storage is well thought out; designers used every possible opportunity to provide storage spaces and lockers. Wrap around sun shade for main salon windows.   Hatch covers for all 8 hatches.
