Manutara

Center Cockpit Manutara

The cockpit provides much more space than found on many center cockpit yachts, with room for a size-able crew to gather, or for one or two to stretch out for a nap. Its protected by a dodger, bimini and full enclosure. The teak sole provides good footing and a great look, but for maximum comfort you may want to deploy the full set of custom cushions on the seats. The cockpit has a huge locker that provides access to the port side of the engine as well as most of the mechanical systems.

The forward stateroom has a double v- berth, plenty of dressing space, and storage abounds in the overhead cabinets, cavernous compartments under the mattresses, and a wide hanging locker to starboard. The forward head is to starboard with marine toilet, washbasin, hot and cold pressurized water, and a hand-held shower. The port-side cabin (opposite the forward head) is comprised of 2 single-bunk berths, a hanging locker and dressing table.

In the main saloon there are 2 L-shaped contoured settees to port and starboard, with the port settee long enough to serve as an adult sea berth. The large table with folding leaves and settee arrangement, provides a great setting for socializing or dining, and there's plenty of storage behind the settees.

The U-shaped galley is aft to port by the companionway, separated from the main salon by a semi-bulkhead. The galley has a Force 10 gimballed 2 burner stove and oven, large top-opening molded ice box with 12 volt holding plate refrigeration, double stainless steel sinks with hot and cold pressurized water, storage cupboards, dry storage and a custom dish rack.

The navigation area/chart table is adjacent to the companionway to starboard. A broad, hinged-top desk and the surrounding instrument panels create a suitable space for the skipper or navigator to plan the voyage. In the companionway going aft, there is a door into the engine room which provides great mechanical access. Also in this passageway is access to the batteries and starboard fuel tank.

The master stateroom aft has a double bed to port, an L-shaped upholstered small settee, chest of drawers and hanging lockers. An ensuite owners head compartment is to port with vanity and sink, hot and cold pressurized water, hand held shower and marine toilet.

Manutara is extremely well equipped and has had many upgrades and improvements over the years (see full specs). Her knowledgeable owner is reluctantly putting her on the market and moving on to his next chapter in life. Please call for an appointment to come see her.
