Deerfoot 74 - Maya

The Deerfoot 74 Maya was unique in her styling. The oriental theme is lovely to look at in the day time, and is especially cool in the evening with all of the indirect lighting.

Maya's galley runs down the hull side. Counters on both sides of the passageway provide lots of working space, together with ample easily accessed storage. Fridge and freezer are at the end of the galley.

Here is the same view, with the working lighting turned on.

Ship's office with dual pole breaker system in the deck head (nav gear is in the pilot house).

Owner's suite forward. Note the etched glass sculpture between saloon and the head of the bunk.

There was a ring of lighting around this sculpture - very spectacular at night.

The appearance during the day isn't too bad either.

Guest cabin joinerwork details. A form of fiberglass was used to create the appearance of Japanese shoji screens.

We've often had clients ask us about turning one of their guest cabins into a separate office. This one is set up as a video editing studio. It was later converted back to a sleeping accommodation.

This is amongst the coolest of the head/shower compartments we've done.

The pilot house is compact, which makes it very comfortable at sea. Seats are raised for good view lines forward.

We've used this hinged foot rest detail on a lot of our designs. When you don't need it, fold it down and out of the way.

Maya was originally painted a light gray color. She was recently redone with a dark blue.

Reaching in the trades. This is what the cruising life is all about!
