The deck saloon sits at the heart of the boat, with its seating and the navigation table, and a saloon berth that sleeps a seventh person. The galley is all electric, with induction cooking and two fridges. The owner's stateroom is aft, with a double berth and an en suite head with a separate shower. Forward of the saloon are a guest cabin with a V berth, a second guest cabin with two single bunks, and the forward head, which serves both guest cabins and has its own shower stall.
