Access to both hulls is via the bridge deck salon that contains the galley, desk navigation station and a comfortable L-shaped lounge area with coffee table that converts to a small dining table, cabinet hung-TV and huge under lounge storage spaces.

The salon and hulls are connected to the cockpit area by an opening sliding door and adjacent opening window that integrates the salon/galley area into the cockpit/helm station areas. A hard, waterproof Bimini covers the cockpit area and contains an 8 place dining table, drinks refrigerator, S/S BBQ coupled with ample under-seat locker storage. All are integrated/connected to the dried-in weatherproofed helm-station that has a composite hardtop and has all sailing control lines/winches led to the helm station to enable most sail handling functions to be handled out of the weather. The cockpit is able to be fully enclosed and has a dual set of clears and sun screens.
