There are 2 single berths, with upholstery in brown/beige open weave material, both of which have storage space beneath. The interior has a really snug feel, with superb varnish-work (including strip planking to the deckhead and unblemished floorboards) blending with the upholstery. The vessel's decks have a non-slip finish and, like her cabin top, are constructed of GRP. She has a good sized cockpit, with seating for 2 each side and a full range of lockers. Varnish-work in the cockpit, and on her mahogany cabin sides, is in excellent condition.

Remarks
Based on the traditional and much loved Thurne Class sailing cruiser, the GRP version combines the advantages of modern materials and low maintenance. This vessel has just had her mast professionally altered by one of Broadland's most prestigious yards so that she can now race with the River Cruiser Class. In superb order inside and out, this is a very attractive craft.
