Interior Layout

Chief features a perfect layout for a cruising couple or family.  Upon entering the main salon from the cockpit, there is a settee to port (with storage underneath) and a J-shaped settee to starboard with a folding table.  The helm is to starboard with a fixed seat, pilothouse door, and a high gloss varnished mate's seat and chart table to port.

Down the companionway is the u-shaped galley, and opposite is a bunk room with space for guests.  Moving forward is a split head, with toilet and vanity to port and the shower to starboard.  The shower space also features an extra sink and toilet to function as a day head.  The master stateroom has a large v-berth with plenty of storage and hanging lockers.

There is an aft bench seat with storage below that currently holds all the life jackets and safety gear.  There is also storage under the dash/helm area which is a great spot to store canvas and cushions.

The mast holds the bulk of the electronic hardware, including a dome radar, windspeed indicator, and a digital tv receiver.  There is also a Trackvision TV 5 on a separate pedestal.

Master Stateroom

The master stateroom has a large vee-berth, a Samsung TV, a hanging locker to starboard, and drawer storage to starboard, below the vee-berth, and outboard above the vee-berth.

Galley

The galley is located down the companionway stairs to port.  This is a u-shaped galley, with everything you'll need to cook a gourmet meal.

The countertops are Corian, with a double bowl stainless sink with Corian fillers that have cutting boards on the back side.  The galley features the following:

  • Sharp Carousel Microwave
  • Princess Electric Three Burner Stove with Oven
  • Pantry to Starboard in the Companionway
  • Storage Below the Forward Corner Counters
  • Grunert Holding Plate Freezer Below the Aft Corner Counters
  • Grunert Holding Plate Fridge 
  • Plenty of Storage Cabinets
VIP Stateroom

The VIP stateroom is located across from the galley.  There are sleeping bunks for two people, with a hanging locker forward and drawer storage aft.  There is additional storage below the bottom bunk and cabinets between the two bunks outboard.  There are two speakers connected to the salon stereo system, and reading lights for both bunks.

Heads

There are two heads, split side by side forward of the galley and the VIP bunk room.  The starboard head is basically a shower room, but also features an extra vanity and Vacuflush toilet.  To port, the second head features a vanity, toilet, and storage for toiletry items.

Aft Cockpit

The aft cockpit on Chief is a huge space, with teak decks and storage below the deck with great access to all the steering components.  There are rod holders in the gunwales on each side, and West Marine speakers well hidden below the gunwales to port and starboard.  There is 50 amp service, cable/phone hookup, and a manual bilge pump in the forward port corner.

Moving aft, there is a door to the teak swim platform in the starboard corner.  Along the transom is a hot/cold shower and washdown nozzle.  

The entrance to the cabin features a sliding door and mezzanine style storage to port and starboard - a great spot to store lines and fenders.
