A popular layout with queen bed aft, V-berths forward, unique galley positioning in the aft port salon corner with full involvement with all happening in the salon, full teak joiner work and teak parquet flooring that is in above average condition with no water intrusion, this is a most comfortable passagemaker, or, an ideal livaboard.
