The cockpit is spacious and well founded with a multitude of seating arrangements. There is a spacious and well padded chaise longue opposite the helm position. The helm seat is a large double with a mirrored rear facing seat.

To the rear is a further double bench seat. Table in saloon can be used out here for some alfresco dining or entertaining.
The cockpit sole is finished in easy maintain flexi teak giving a warmth and touch of class. Far more practical than the obligatory yet impractactical carpets.
