Once you get to her aft area you must go up three steps to the aft deck and then up two to the flybridge. You can enter her cabin from either the starboard door or from the aft deck. She has a nice salon with helm forward on starboard and settee on port. Her galley is forward and down. The galley has nice room and been updated with tile back splash and new appliances. On starboard her dinette has been removed and a full sized refrigerator installed. Forward of the galley is her guest stateroom which has a v-berth with filler, locker and head.
