Solid oak and stainless-steel grab handles add to the practical and stylish interior.

Oceanair blinds are installed throughout, including Skysol blinds inside the deck saloon windows, along with Oceanair skyscreens on all deck hatches and flyscreens on all opening hull and coachroof ports. Caframo fans provide additional ventilation as needed.
Main Saloon: Access to the saloon from the companionway is down a set of shaped timber and stainless-steel steps, with two stainless steel grab handles fitted on either side for safe descent. The saloon is characterized by its exceptional brightness and openness, with seven windows, including two of the three forward windows that can be opened for ventilation.
The saloon features a rectangular table and a large settee area to port, with lockers and a central shelf positioned outboard along the hull. The table is designed to serve as an occasional table when closed, mounted on a sturdy pedestal that includes a bottle locker in its base. The tabletop is an oak veneered panel with solid timber edging. When extended for dining, a hinging central infill piece (stored in the pedestal top when not in use) transforms the table into a spacious dining area. Two director's chairs with canvas covers are provided for additional seating at the table or on deck, with designated stowage for convenience.
To starboard, there is a three-seater L-shaped settee, with a locker and central shelf positioned forward along the hull area. One locker has been customized to house a lift-up flat-screen TV, while a bookcase adds to the functional layout of the space. The forward bulkhead is painted to enhance the interior ambiance.
FWD Double Cabin: The spacious double cabin located in the bow features a centerline double berth with two drawers beneath for convenient storage. To port, there is a large, shelved clothes locker, and to starboard, a hanging locker equipped with a vanity mirror on the door. Ample stowage space is available for personal belongings.
The bulkhead is painted in white to brighten the cabin interior. Access to the deck is provided via a fore hatch, allowing for easy entry and exit.

Hull-side lockers for clothes, a bedside cabinet with a shelved locker, and large hanging locker with two drawers beneath. Mirror fitted to hanging locker door. Small lockers beneath the lower berth, accessed either via removable lids in the bunk top or a drop-front locker door in the berth front.
FWD Head: The large head compartment to starboard serves both forward cabins and can be accessed from the passageway, also serving as a day head. It features a toilet, washbasin, and shower stall separated by a hinged door for privacy and convenience. An upper locker with a mirrored door provides storage space above the washbasin, with additional stowage beneath the washbasin for wash bags, cleaning materials, and linen. An electric heated towel rail adds comfort and practicality. The floor is treated with non-skid material for safety, ensuring a secure footing even when wet.
