The owners' stateroom is forward of the pilothouse from which it can be closed off by doors. It comprises V-berths, a seat, a head with basin and shower, many lockers and access to the forepeak.
The pilothouse, over the engine space, houses all the controls in a central console. Alongside the console are lift-top chart lockers and a navigation area with drawers below. Behind the helm position is a short [1,85m] berth for the watch during night passages and the saloon stairs. Access to the deck is through sliding doors port and starboard.

The saloon is open to the galley and comprises a central table with bottle stowage and hinged leaves and settees port and starboard. The settee backrests hinge upward to form upper and lower berths or to give access to the lockers behind. The fresh water tanks are built in under the settees.

The machinery space is under the pilothouse and also houses the batteries and fuel tanks. Large hatches in the floor and roof of the pilothouse will permit removal of the engine if needed.
