For a vessel of its size, this model offers an unprecedented amount of luxury, comfort, and interior spaciousness. Beam is an extraordinary 15 feet, which helps account for the roominess. This version offers an owner's stateroom and a guest stateroom. The main salon is wonderful for entertaining. Storage is usually at a premium in cruisers of this size, but you'll find plenty aboard this one. In addition to lockers, drawers, and shelves everywhere, there's a large storage space directly under the galley and dinette areas, which is ideal for luggage and extra provisions.

On-deck areas are unusually roomy. The aft deck is clear and spacious, and there's a lazarette with a flush hatch. A teak bulwark cap runs completely around the boat. The foredeck has a sun lounge molded into the superstructure.

A fast, seaworthy hull design
A flared keel extends from bow to transom, but sweeps into broad planing surfaces, which provide plenty of lift. The hull is fast, stable, and maneuverable. The transom is veed to help maintain course in beam, quartering, and following seas. A full-lenght foil extends out from the hull-side just above the waterline, and through-hull fittings are vented out of sight on the underside.

This boat has been kept in a time capsule.
