Accommodation is well arranged for cruising, offering berths for up to six across two cabins and the saloon, with heating and air-conditioning ensuring comfort in a range of climates. On deck, she is equipped for practical cruising with an electric windlass, substantial Bügel anchor with 60m of chain, sprayhood, and bimini for protection underway and at anchor. A tender with 6hp outboard (recently serviced in 2024) completes the package, supporting easy shore access.
