To port is a U Shaped dinette with a settee at midline which backs up to a storage cabinet. The galley runs the full length of the salon, to starboard. Aft of the galley is the navigation station, large enough for full sized charts.

Forward of the salon is the master stateroom with ensuite head, double pullman (5'8" x 6' 3") to port with drawers beneath the bed, hanging lockers, vanity/desk to starboard (B&G multi display)

The head with separate shower stall is forward with Jabsco electric head and vanity. Forward of the head is a locker with a work bench and ample storage for sails and equipment.
