Accommodations
VOYAGEUR offers spacious accommodations with the salon, galley, lower helm and aft deck all on the
same level; 2 staterooms with island modified queen berth in the master stateroom and athwartships twins in the port guest cabin. The Europa offers an abundance of outdoor space under the covered aft and side decks and on the flybridge.
One enters the main salon through double sliding doors from the covered aft deck or the starboard pilothouse side deck door. The custom salon layout offers an L-settee to starboard with storage below, teak drop leaf hi/lo table. There are two GB teak chairs to port with one teak footstool and teak table between with integrated book racks below. The entertainment center is cleverly located in a custom cabinet in the port aft corner of the salon. The lower helm is forward to starboard with an access door to the side deck. This makes shorthanded docking easy and the large walkaround decks allow crew to safely move about the boat even in inclement weather.
The L-shaped galley is to port and features Grunert refrigeration, Grunert cold plate freezer, 2-burner electric stove, convection/microwave oven, large cutting board covering the large Stainless steel sink
and U-Line icemaker at the custom bar to starboard. A custom-designed "dumb waiter" is overhead to
starboard and is a very useful feature to transfer food, drinks and more from the galley to the flybridge.
There is plentiful storage in the galley with GB overhead dish lockers, drawers and cabinets and
forward countertop storage.
The master stateroom is forward with a centerline walkaround queen berth and flush mounted 19” TV. There are two reading lamps abundant storage beneath the berth, large cedar-lined hanging locker, custom bookshelves, several lockers and drawers, two opening ports and an overhead hatch. Ensuite to this cabin is the master head to starboard which includes a Vacuflush head, mirror and additional lighting.
The guest stateroom is to port and features athwartships twin berths with storage below each berth, cedar-lined hanging locker, overhead storage, built-in bookshelves, two opening ports and an opening hatch. The guest head is across the passageway to starboard and also includes a Vacuflush head, mirror and additional lighting. There is a shared stall shower between both heads. It's a huge benefit to hve the two head arrangement while cruising. This allows for a backup in case of an issue with a head and also designates the owners head private.
Salon
The salon is accessed from the aft deck through double teak sliding doors. Doors lock open allowing
a seamless merger of inside and outside spaces. To port are two teak chairs, one teak foot stool and a teak cabinet between with integrated book racks. The entertainment center is positioned in the aft port corner with TV/Bose FM/AM Stereo/CD Changer. To starboard is an L-settee and teak Hi/Lo dining table. The settee offers storage below accessed via optional hydraulic lifts. Just forward of the settee is a custom bar cabinet housing the U-Line ice maker. All teak seating is finished in green Ultra Suede. The parquet cabin sole has been covered by carpet since new and is in very good condition.

Remarks
There is a long list of custom features that make this boat much more desirable than a stock GB42 Europa and others on the market. She spent most of her days under a covered dock when not cruising and truly shows like a much newer boat inside and out. Your inspection of “VOYAGEUR” is encouraged if you are considering boats in this category.
