This boat also benefits from diesel warm air heating, shore power, solar panels and an inverter system. Her large aft cabin has a full double bed and an ensuite heads and shower all of which is very clean and tidy and offers a cosy environment to spend time afloat.
Her galley is all neat tidy and clean and well fitted with gas cooker fridge and sink and good storage and worktop. The convertible saloon has a large sliding hatch over and the seating can make up to a double berth when required.
The helm to port sports the nice new style Nani diesel instrument panel. forward companionway door opens on to the large forward well deck.
