Challenger 36
This Challenger 36 Masthead has seen many recent upgrades to ready her for some serious cruising. Her design features a very functional cockpit and deck-fitting layout along with a full navstation, large saloon seating area and some nice electronics. The cockpit is deep, comfortable and inviting with a functional swim platform off the stern. The galley has a new one piece benchtop with moulded sink, deep fridge/freezer, stove & oven and generous storage. The saloon and living area below decks offer good headroom. Her sturdy construction ensures excellent stability and superb sailing. With new Mainsail, Bimini cover, in-date liferaft, AIS, new through hulls and fresh antifoul she offers excellent value for money in today's marketplace. To top that off she has a new refrigeration system Region

Stepping down below from the cockpit, you find a good sized navigation table to the starboard side, where everything is at hand as it should be. Aft of here, is the large quarter berth. To port the U shaped galley features moulded Caesar top benches, as is the top of the Nav station.
Aft of the galley, to port you have another quarter berth currently being used as a sail locker.
Heading forward into the saloon area, there is a long settee to starboard that can be used as a single berth as required, and opposite is the U shaped seating around the large timber table. The table can be dropped down to form a large double berth, if the need arises.
Throughout the cabin there is ample storage for cruising gear and life's necessities. The upholstery is in good condition, as is the coachwork.
Forward of the saloon and to port, is the dedicated head/shower along with a vanity in a dedicated cabin. Opposite is open storage shelving. Further forward you enter the large Vee berth that can be used as 2 singles, or 1 large double with an infill. The vessel has great ventilation via deck hatches with large fixed ports on cabin sides.
