Command Position
Ergonomically well laid out, the console design permits ease of monitoring the engine systems and navigation equipment, together with an excellent view. Weather protection is provided by the large windscreen. A two-part hood protects the helm station and cockpit area, or in terms of the hardtop version, this protects the helm station while the hood protects the cockpit area.
Deck Layout
There are two deck layouts available, the aft deck model and the aft cockpit model. The aft cockpit model has a deck that runs right around the aft of the boat, making working on deck safe and easy. The aft deck model has side coamings set right to the edge of hull. This creates a large area for open air seating and dining. Both models are available with a hardtop, where patio doors are incorporated into the design.
Deck Saloon
Dominating the centre of the craft is the deck saloon which has both a dining area and comfortable lounge seating. The raised dining area has excellent visibility yet is conventionally located near the galley. The powerful shaft driven diesel engines are located low down below the deck saloon. This enables the best possible stability and sea going qualities. There is very good access to the engine room for routine maintenance and for full service, the floor area can be removed easily.

Hull Design & Construction
John Bennett designed this powerboat. The mouldings are of excellent quality and are produced using hand laid chopped strand mat and woven rovings in Lloyds approved isopthalic gel coat and resin, over double brushed isophthalic gel coat all but eliminating the risk of osmosis. Substantial transverse and longitudinal stringers are incorporated throughout the hull for strength. The hull and deck joint is both riveted and bonded.

Complete with two single berths, bedside table, wardrobe and separate dressing room with storage cupboards. There is direct access to the heads compartment opposite to the mid cabin.
Shower Room
Separate space with hot and cold water shower mixer tap. Moulded in seat and all easy clean surfaces.
