CAROUSEL is boarded from her swim platform through the transom door into the weather-protected cockpit or via the side decks and through the pilothouse doors. Pass through the cockpit door into the heated salon, and you will find teak cabinetry and a settee with high-low table to port while the semi-u-shaped galley occupies the entire starboard side. Forward and up three steps, the pilothouse is flanked by sliding doors on either side. Double-wide seating at the navigator's station and the helm allows four travelers to converse and enjoy the sights whether underway or at rest. Forward and down three steps, the companionway presents a laundry alcove to port and a panty to starboard. Forward through the door into the Master Stateroom, the queen berth with generous drawers at its foot and a large storage bin beneath the mattress is located on centerline. Hanging lockers and storage cabinets line both sides of the stateroom. A huge head with walk-in shower lies to starboard. Opening portlights and a screened overhead hatch provides light and ventilation.
