Owner's Cabin

I have to say that the forward master cabin on this boat is definitely a heart stopper! With access from both the port and starboard passages, the queen bed spans the breadth of the boat, making access easy, with lots of space and light. The main shower is also a pressurised system like nothing else I have seen on a boat this size. She truly is a boat built for family and friends, and for serious cruising.
