Jacob:
Thought it looked fun to live on. Spacious, nice with 2 stateroom layout. Lots of handholds. Nice galley, oriented fore and aft. Loved the sugar scoop stern. In nice condition. Did not like the space wasted on a forward head.
April:
Loved the light, the stern, the spacious feel and the two stateroom design. Curved settees but not nice for guests or passage making.
