Vessel Walkthrough
Step aboard and you’ll immediately feel the welcoming warmth of this beautifully updated Plan C layout. The bright and inviting salon sits on the main deck, offering a comfortable space to relax after a day on the water. Just forward, the mid-level galley and dinette create a cozy, connected gathering area perfect for meals, conversation, or morning coffee with a view.
Continuing below, you’ll find a well-appointed head featuring a large stall shower with both guest access and private entry from the master stateroom. The master stateroom itself feels spacious and inviting, centered around a comfortable centerline double berth. A separate guest cabin with upper/lower bunks provides a great retreat for family or friends.
The interior décor has been refreshed within the last couple of years, and the upgraded teak & holly flooring throughout the salon, galley, and dinette adds a warm, classic touch that ties the entire space together beautifully.
