2008 Custom Motorsailor

Stepping into the deep comfortable aft cockpit you will find two full-length seats which also make fine summer weather sleeping berths. On the starboard side of the cabin is the low-profile exterior steering station. Entering through the varnished wood sliding door we find ourselves in the main cabin. Influenced by the owners’ years of cruising, we find the practical and comfortable blended here. To starboard is the large dinette table with ships lantern swinging gently overhead. To the port is the large galley dresser, plenty of storage and a Dickinson Pacific marine stove. Forward of the dinette is the helm with a large seat, comfortable for two or even three. Moving forward we step down into the main salon lit by portlights on both sides and deck prisms above. There are comfortable settees each side which double as single berths. There is a Dickinson heater mounted on the forward bulkhead that sheds a beautiful fine light. A folding writing desk is hinged to the aft bulkhead. The large head/shower compartment is located to starboard. The captain’s quarters are located forward and contains a comfortable double berth. Throughout the interior, finished in clear satin wood finish and light-colored paint, you will find plenty of storage. 6' 3" headroom.

The exterior is very practical with a minimum of varnish. Forward at the bow is a well deck which allows you to be comfortable when handling the anchoring equipment or sails. Under the aft cockpit floor and seats is a large storage area for all your extra gear. Her simple gaff rigged ketch gives you the option to be under sail alone, motor-sail or just use a steadying sail while under power. All the deck gear is bronze or stainless steel.
