Dining area and saloon
The saloon has a dining table for 8 to 10 guests and so do the aft deck and the flybridge, that has a round table instead (under the hard top), along with a bar, hot tub and lounge area. There is also additional seating with a table in the bow area, which features an awning and sunbeds. There is a day head on the main deck and the crew have their own separate dinette/seating area in the wheelhouse.
