Built to EU Cat. C standard on a 20mm base plate by Aqualine Marine in 2011 the quality of construction and materials used is evident throughout this vessel. Although the wheelhouse is collapsable this is probably for UK waters as the boat goes under Capestang bridge with it up! Air draft to its minimum (every thing down) is 2.49m

Two ensuite cabins, one right forward and one right aft this is a well thought out spacious cruising home. The wheelhouse has 1.97m of headroom and windows through 360° affording an excellent view to both the skipper and the crew. A three leaf fold-out table could accommodate six with ease and the drawer fridge under the starboard bench seat could hold bottles just as easily as vegetables! Doors on each side with bollards right where you need them make mooring and lock work easy. Aft of the wheelhouse is the guest cabin with two single berths of 2m x .9m each with storage under as well as a full length cupboard. To port a heads with electric WC and to starboard a shower. Portholes are opening and there is an escape hatch right aft. 1.95m headroom and radiator central heating complete the home comforts for your guests. Forward of the wheelhouse the accommodation gets seriously comfortable with a huge galley taking the whole width of the boat. Masses of granite worktops, masses of cupboard space including a full height slide-out storage unit and a “magic corner” corner unit (see our video). Equipment includes a domestic washing machine, and fridge (both 220v) built into the cupboards, a four-burner gas cooker with oven and pull out cooker hood, LED backlit panels in all the cupboard doors add a touch of class, whilst 2.1m of headroom and plenty of natural light from four opening windows and a pigeon box add to the feeling of space and wellbeing. The saloon has L shaped leather look seating, plenty of cupboard space and of course more radiators heated by the Alde boiler. There is a TV corner with an LG TV, LG Blueray player and Bose speakers. Forward via a corridor on the starboard side is the door to the main heads which, via this door in the corridor serves as a day heads but is also accessed directly from the forward master cabin. Just look at the photos. This is a huge shower room with the granite worktop theme continued. Finally, the master cabin with up to 2.1m headroom, a walk round double bed of 2m x 1.4m max. Five storage cupboards more space under the bed. An escape hatch and opening portholes give plenty of natural light and more radiators will keep you warm in winter. There is over 1000 liters of water on board and water heating from the engine or 220v immersion heater. Central heating to radiators from the Alde 6.4Kw boiler. Insulation is impressive! Just read what the builder says,” The floor is sat on a waterproof membrane and formed from an insulated composite panel with 100mm of Dow Industries high grade Styrofoam closed cell foam sandwiched between two layers of WBP plywood. The hull sides are covered in 75mm of Styrofoam closed cell foam. The cabin sides and roof are covered in 50mm of Styrofoam and then the whole space and all framing is covered in 19mm of 3M Thinsulate giving this insulated envelope the ultimate in thermal and acoustic performance”. Voilà! I couldn’t have put it better myself.
