Alternate Forward Cabin Layout

We have a second layout available for the forward cabin which takes a different approach to the use of space.

In this case the starboard side counter has been shortened and a seat worked in between it and the hanging locker aft. The seat provides a place to read away from the rest of the boat, and somewhere to set a bedspread when the bunk is in use.

The bi-fold door will close off the forward part of the stateroom, when required, to create a private head compartment and dressing room.

The trade off with this arrangement is some loss of storage space. But then there is a lot of storage already.
