All areas are protected by large 1 1/4 inch SS pulpits and stanchions of the best quality. At the aft end of the cabin are stairs to the upper steering and outside living area. The dry exhaust structures double as supports for the para vane arms and the bridge between them is used as a landing for antennas, lights and radar reflectors.

Remarks
At first sight from the exterior, this vessel appears to be a well cared for fishing vessel with her tall dry stacks, assorted flopper stopper gear and high up antenna array. However , as one gets closer you realize that she is a very clean functional yacht with detailed simplicity and built to go anywhere. Once onboard, there is no doubt that this is a yacht in the truest manner with her simple, cool elegance that leaves nothing out. Time spent on this vessel is not like being on a boat, but instead being in a very functional apartment set up for an owners party and guest party with all of the comforts of home. With her para vanes and long range this is a true offshore power cruiser capable of being at sea in safety and comfort. One would look a long time to find a vessel new or used that has had the level of maintenance found here.
