Upgrades and Tidbits

Upgrades include a Garhauer main sheet traveler and rigid boom vang. There is also a custom fit teak cockpit table that was made from the bowsprit off an old wooden cutter...a functional conversation piece.

Main Salon

The roomy main salon features 6' +/-  headroom throughout, a pullout double berth to port and a single to starboard. A solid, folding teak table, a large amount oif storage space and classic Cape Dory touches (bronze oil lamp and ship's bell) add  a little extra character and comfort. There is also brand new upholstery throughout. 8 bronze opening ports provide great air circulation.

Galley

The simple and efficient galley layout includes a recessed Origo 4000 stainless alcohol stove with cutting board cover, stainless steel sink with fresh water footpump and a huge deep-well icebox. There are storage areas below the counter top as well as outboard on both port and starboard sides.

Private V-Berth

Separated from the rest of the living area by a teak privacy door, the teak paneled v-berth includes an upholstered insert which creates one large sleeping area. Ample storage under on both port and starboard sides. Anchor rode locker access is through the teak door shown here all the way forward.

Immaculate Head Compartment

Located between the main salon and vberth. New 13 gallon holding tank with deck fitting for pumpout and Y-valve for overboard discharge where permissable. There is also a stainless steel sink with fresh water footpump.
