Two folding seats are inboard and can be stored away while underway.

Light, ventilation and visibility are provided by two large deck hatches and teak-trimmed tinted deck house windows along the front and sides.

Aft and to starboard is an L-shaped navigation station with easy access to the cockpit. There is a comfortable pedestal chair along with built-in backlit switch panels, navigation instruments and remote-control panels for the water maker and tank monitors. The workspace also includes a chart table with custom storage for computer and (in adjacent cabin) a printer.
