The layout focuses on providing ample sleeping accommodations for longer stays. There are five fixed berths available, along with an additional five berths, making the boat suitable for larger groups or families.Construction and HullThe hull is made of polyester, a commonly used material in yacht construction due to its strength and relatively low maintenance.
