Vessel Walk-through
Between the extended bowsprit, the darker toned interior wood, and the hand-carved wood, this feels like your own pirate ship. Located in the rear of the vessel behind the center cockpit is an elegant stateroom with recently restored bright-work. There is ample storage and a rear entry into the engine compartment. Moving forward on the starboard side, is a lowered ceiling and forward hall that runs into the nav station. Looking to port is the galley with top loading fridge, sink, oven, and range.

Moving forward of the galley is the dinette with bench seating and settee/berth just across on the starboard side. Moving forward is the head with shower and lots of bow storage cubbies.

  A traditionally designed aft cabin cutter rigged sail/auxiliary, constructed in 1978 by Kona Marine of Newport Beach, CA, of heavy hand laid fiberglass reinforced plastic with taped bulkheads, frames and built ins. This vessel has a near clipper bow with decorative stem molding with a smooth tapering dead-rise forefoot with rounded bilges, an internally ballasted full keel with prop cutout a keel hung plank rudder.    On deck the vessel has a bow sprit with teak anchoring platform with anchor rollers either side, S&L manual windlass leading the chain into a hause pipe. From the tubular pulpit railing dual course lifelines surround port and starboard walkways which step up to high aft deck and cockpit area aft around a traditional low aspect house into a modern “U” shaped cockpit which includes pedestal steering with removable teak grate forward. The vessel has a contemporary aft tapering sheer slightly rounded transom with aft window.   Access light and ventilation is provided by a standard hatches fore and aft, wing hatch amidship, companionway, opening port-lights in main salon and aft cabin. The cockpit is provided ample seating, coamings and is self draining.   Additional safety equipment is supplied by stainless steel tube bow and stern rails, double scored lifelines, stainless steel stanchions to the entry and single course through the railing aft with heavy duty molded overlapped deck to hull joint scuppered toe-railing side decks and forward.   Vestiges of turned post decorative teak railing are still attached aft and port cap-rail forward.

Below decks, the vessel provides accommodations in two general cabin areas and the machinery, stowage spaces under the cockpit. Well forward is sail stowage and access to the anchor locker. Here is provided possible single berthing with drawer and locker storage. A full head is then located to port, while to starboard is a hanging locker. Aft again is the main cabin.
