There is plenty of storage under the bunks and in a small closet forward.

The cockpit features a mahogany steering consol with engine and navigational instruments (wind speed, depth and speed log). There are mahogany seats with teak inlay and mahogany cockpit staving and cap rail, plus a raised mahogany and teak engine box which doubles as a cockpit table and support for a binnacle compass.
