- Effortless Handling: Designed for easy management, even for short-handed or single-handed crews, all lines lead aft to the cockpit, putting essential controls within reach of the helm. The furling genoa, and self-tailing winches make sail handling a breeze, so you can focus on the joy of sailing.
- Unrivaled Comfort Below Deck: Step below to a bright, open, and incredibly spacious interior. The cabin layout features a large owner's stateroom with a generous double berth, a comfortable V-berth forward currently used as a storage room, and a welcoming salon with a centerline drop-leaf table. The fully equipped L-shaped galley, complete with a deep refrigerator and a stainless steel stove/oven, makes extended stays onboard a pleasure.
- Built for Cruising and Liveability: SERENATA is designed for long-range cruising and liveability. Enjoy a large cockpit with stern rail seating, a convenient walk-through transom to the swim platform, and abundant storage throughout the vessel. Large windows and hatches provide excellent natural light and ventilation, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
- Solid and Reliable: Built with a solid fiberglass hull and a reliable Yanmar diesel engine, SERENATA is a proven coastal cruiser.
