Left: Forward there is a substantial table mounted around the keel-stepped mast, with settee berths on either side, with lockers and stowage outboard.

 

 

Below: The open plan accommodation continues forward to the forepeak, with lots of locker space and a vee-berth

The interior layout of this version is non-standard, being built without a bulkhead separating the forecabin from the saloon. The other non-standard feature is the central pillar and handrail unit between the galley and the chart table
