Design characteristics from brochure

Well finished and well-designed woodwork, pleasing to the eye, like the rounded doors, bulkheads beautifully trimmed and complex curved moldings well fitted around chart tables, galleys and all cabinet doors.

A lovely teak cabin sole, many opening ports and grab rails where you need them.

Much stiffness is added to the hull by the well-engineered liner, designed to add rigidity in the keel area and bilges.
