Deck layout

Deck stowage comprises one full-depth cockpit locker and a shallow lazarette bin. The lazarette gas locker holds two large Calor bottles and is drained overboard. A gate leads to a transom boarding ladder, although the backstay bisects it.

The fuel tank is mounted above the engine and the filler cap is under a cockpit sole board. An optional small teak table attaches to the pedestal.

Stepping out of the cockpit it’s best to avoid the narrow step around the outside of the coamings, instead planting your feet directly onto the wide side decks. Plentiful Treadmaster and lengthy handholds help prevent you losing your balance.

The foredeck has a double bow roller and a shallow anchor locker. The rode feeds down to a chain locker in the forepeak, accessed from below.
