From the queen aft berth and cabin, twin electric heads, full kitchen with microwave, new fridge, stove and double sink–cozy kitchen nook. The salon is warm and well lit. With TV and music and speakers for both inside and outside listening. Twin helm stations with reasonably up to date electronics including Simrad autopilot, Raymarine gpsradar, newer gps A65 gps by Raymarine, and pushed thru the water by twin 3208 cat engines with 7k hrs. each.
