There is a double "V"-berth berth in the bow cabin, an U-shaped settee and a straight settee in the main salon and an aft cabin with a transverse double berth or opetionally, two cabins aft, each with doubles. The galley is located on the port side just forward of the companionway ladder. The galley is C-shaped and is equipped with a three-burner stove, an icebox and a double sink. A navigation station is forward of the galley, on the port side. The head is located amidships on the starboard side.[1][3][4]
