The interior of the yacht

The saloon is defined by its spacious feel with its large U-shaped settee to port with a sliding central seat paired with a drop down table allows for several configurations from dining area, to lounge or even extended sleeping zone. And to the starboard side a deep settee can also be used as a comfortable seat bed together with a sliding chart table & seating. A very multifunctional space that suits a comfortable life onboard through the different seasons.

Plenty of overhead, under settee and underfloor storage to suit all needs.

The innovative transversal at mast base design for the galley introduced by Dufour, guarantees the perfect social setting between guests and hosts while at the same time providing a very stable environment under sail. Generous worktop surfaces, industrial sized double sink, plenty of overhead storage cupboards, 200L fridge, 2 hobs induction cooktop and convection oven (oven/griller/steamer/microwave) on gimbal, microwave ensure cooking with all the perks of a modern galley.

The forward cabin has a double berth island bed with stowage underneath. Generous hanging lockers on both sides and overhead storage. Good ventilation is guaranteed by two big hatches conveniently placed over the bed.

This master room is served by a split en-suite system with a shower w/ electrical pump-out drain and vanity on the port side room and a head (w/ holding tank) and sink on the starboard side room, allowing for extra privacy for the owners.

The aft cabins are both equipped with large double berth beds with overhead stowage and hanging lockers. The port side cabin has the possibility of using the main head as an en-suite w/ electric toilet (w/ holding tank), washbasin and shower w/ electrical pump-out drain.

The starboard side original head was converted into a laundry/storage room for that extra convenience of life onboard w/ a 3kg front loader washing machine.
