OK, I understand that the auxiliary power is easily accessed. And I wouldn't even complain about working on the engine in any weather, like torrential rain. BUT, imagine you are pulling into a difficult port and you decide to start the motor and drop the sails. But the motor, for whatever reason doesn't start. In order to work on the auxiliary power, you have to sacrifice steering. That's ok in the middle of a lake or ocean (when you rarely need the engine). But when you usually use the engine, you like to have some control of the boat. At least I do. Also, the location of the head (marine toilet) solution is fine especially since the yacht is primarily a daysailer. But you are sleeping on that side of the V-berth. Oh, and if you must use the head in the middle of the night... just hold it. Otherwise gorgeous and capable boat.
Prachtige beelden van deze mooie boot.
