1979 Cheoy Lee 44 Ketch

Stepping below is entering a world of rich wood, cozy spaces, and comfort.

As you drop down the companionway stairs, you will see a long settee to starboard then the nav station. To port is a door to the aft cabin. Forward of that cabin is a head. Forward of that is the galley. Forward of the galley and nav station is the saloon with two long settees graced in elegant black upholstery lining each side with a table between them. Forward of the saloon is a head to port and large hanging locker to starboard, and then the V-berth.

The living area is open and well-appointed with ample teak and fine fabrics. The sole and trim are teak, creating the kind of warmth that can only be achieved from fine wood. Overhead is a cream colour, surrounded by ample windows, creating a bright and comfortable space. There is a dorade vent midships and three hatches for ample circulation in warm climates.

The galley is cleverly designed with ample food prep space, storage, and ventilation. The staterooms have berths to comfortably accommodate two with ample storage spaces. The heads have manual flush toilets, teak grates, basins, countertops, and opening portholes.
