The companionway is two comfortably wide, stout steps mounted on the removable front of the engine compartment. The top step is handy to the galley so adds counterspace.

There are three separate cabins. The V-berth is spacious and comfortable with an infill piece. There is a large hatch for light, ventilation, and escape.

Aft of that is the head to port with pressurized hot and cold water, a shower with sump, and manual flush head. A tannoy vent is in the deckhead for ventilation. There is ample storage for toiletries and hanging your wet things.

The main saloon has a C-shaped settee to port that wraps around a two-leaf table with bottle stowage. This settee can convert to a double berth, 6’ 2” (1.58 m) long. To starboard there is a bench settee fitted with a lee cloth. Laying down here, you can place your feet under the navigation table, thus extending the berth to 6’ 7” (2 m). Grabrails line the length of the saloon on both sides.

There is a U-shaped galley aft of the saloon on the port side. It is utilitarian, with ample food prep space, one-and-a-half sinks, gimbled 2-burner stove with oven, front-opening fridge, a huge icebox moulded into the countertop, and many details that will make any cook a happy cook.  

Starboard, across from the galley is the navigation table with stowage beneath and several navigation instruments surrounding it. There is more stowage under the seat.

Beside the nav station is a door accessing the aft cabin. This is a smallish cabin with a berth that can sleep two kids, or two adults who are quite friendly with each other.
