The main sleeping area is a unique V-shaped bed at the bow on the boat that comfortably sleeps two adults. A curtain separates this area from the rest of the cabin for privacy.
Additional sleeping spaces include a convertible futon and a convertible dinette, each slightly larger than a twin, suitable for one adult or child.
You’ll also have a kitchenette stocked with a mini-fridge, microwave, hot plate, toaster, and coffee maker. A stocked coffee bar, pots & pans, spices, and a variety of cooking utensils ensure you'll have all the essentials ready for you!
The bathroom is a compact but thoughtfully equipped wet-head-- where the shower and toilet share one efficient space. To make your stay even more comfortable, we provide biodegradable body wash, shampoo, and conditioner—perfect for freshening up while also being gentle on the water and environment.
