Across the passageway to starboard is the guest head featuring a separate stall shower with acrylic shower door, Vacflush head, vanity with Corian counter top and medicine cabinet.

The main salon has been extensively customized with twin facing settees around a wide inlaid teak, adjustable height, dining table to port.  Two comfortable custom arm chairs are mounted
