Walkthrough
The generous 13+ ft beam is used wisely, creating a welcoming interior with abundant headroom and storage. The three double cabins plus a convertible dinette provide sleeping for up to eight. Quality craftsmanship is evident throughout: satin-finished cherry joinery pairs beautifully with light upholstery and headliners. Oversized deck hatches, plentiful portlights, and three acrylic skylights flood the salon with daylight. Custom screens and shades temper the sun, while twin CruiseAir 12,000 BTU systems (aft unit 2023) cool the entire interior for year-round comfort.

Built in South Carolina for the North American market. The solid fiberglass hull with structural inner grid and glassed-in floors delivers stiffness and confidence offshore.
