The Ultimate Layout for Families & Hosting

This rare Three-Cabin Layout provides private, comfortable accommodations for the whole crew:

Forward Master Suite: Features a signature Pullman-style double berth to port, extensive cedar-lined hanging lockers, and a private en-suite head in the forepeak with a dedicated shower.
Dual Aft Staterooms: Two mirror-image private double cabins at the stern offer standing headroom and ample storage, perfect for guests or kids.
Aft Day Head: A second full head is conveniently located aft, serving the guest cabins and providing easy access from the cockpit.

An Interior Designed for Living

Massive Salon: Boasting 6’ 8” of headroom, the salon feels like a 50-foot yacht. The large U-shaped dinette to port creates a social centerpiece, while the starboard linear galley offers a modern, open-concept feel.
Fully Equipped Galley: Features a 3-burner propane stove/oven, double stainless steel sink, and massive refrigeration capacity for long-range cruising.
Dedicated Nav Station: A proper desk for the offshore cruiser, providing a secure space for electronics and passage planning.

Hull & Engineering

Reliable Power: Driven by the upgraded 44HP Yanmar diesel engine, providing confident motoring and easy maintenance.
Sailing Performance: Outfitted with a masthead sloop rig and the sought-after 4’ 10” Wing Keel, allowing you to explore thin-water anchorages from the Bahamas to the Chesapeake without sacrificing stability.
T-Shaped Cockpit: The massive cockpit features high, ergonomic coamings, a walk-through transom with a "sugar scoop" swim platform, and integrated stern-rail seats for the best view on the boat.
