is the probable maximum in our opinion. Our layouts!
were carefully designed considering the volume of!
the boat and its main use which is ocean travelling.!
b) WOOD!
For your furniture, we suggest you use a hard!
wood of your choosing, be it oak, teak or good!
quality mahogany and to build a frame which will be!
laminated with the wood of your choice.!
c) SETTEES!
The dimensions given for the settees in the!
boat are more or less critical. They were designed!
considering maximum comfort which is the prime!
objective. Bearing this in mind, the settees around!
the table in the dinette area are meant to be!
comfortable when eating and not when used as a berth!
or a couch.!
We believe that a boat which is to be used!
full time by a couple with children should be designed!
with this in mind rather than trying to make a berth!
on every available horizontal surface. By doing so,!
you will end up with a settee that is uncomfortable!
for any of its intended uses. In the pilothouse, the!
sofa is meant to be a sofa, not a settee or a bench.!
Its height, the thickness of the cushions and the!
backrest should make it a comfortable relaxing piece!
of furniture.!
