Real nice. The transom door is a great too. Can't say that I've seen that before. Which I had one on our F36. Lettle jealous of the glass aft deck too, our teak is nice to look at but its a tone of maintenance.

Welcome aboard, she's a beauty.

Look Paul, no lower station.

Summer Storm you can use the pics if you want. You can send me a PM and I will email the originals. Transom door was a big selling point. The YC I belong to has stern to docking only. I said before that I did a lot of research on this site before buying. I did not want a lower station. Is a second bunk room rare or did a PO modify the interior? Either way I like it.

The second bunk room was common on the early years and much less common in later years .

Many debates here about where it's best to pilot a boat from; top or lower station. Paul has a lower but never uses it, nor do I. Just a inside joke thing, I wasn't poking at anything. If by second bunk you mean a side berth, it is not a mod, it's an OEM layout option.

I spent two day scrolling thru old post to see what I may have missed. I saw many posts regarding transom doors, flybridges and lower stations. Opinions varied on everything. I took it all with a grain of salt. Never saw much on the side berths though, I thought it was a mod from a PO.

I like the side berths, wish I had one. We have a little guy that we need to constantly set up the dinette area for sleeping. It's a bit of a pain so we don't even bother using it as an eating area anymore but we do miss the table space.

100% correct Big D on all counts

boatsnbars, beautiful boat and pics. Love how the boot stripe matches the canvas. I'm an hour south of Quincy, noticed that your boat is registered in Rhode Island, is that where you slip it?
