I like that nav table on Hillster's boat. 2Chine, cool, no mast coming through the roof and getting in the way. Patrickrea, what are those vent thingies in the salon headliner?

Here's our main salon:



Looking aft:



And our surprisingly usable aft cabin berth (for such a skinny-assed IOR design....)

Good use of the space Ron. I'm partial to forward facing nav tables. We had a Cat 34 for a few years that had an aft facing station. My wife could not interpret the radar when it was facing the wrong direction. I like those access panels to the electric panels too. Nice.

Those are actually vent thingies connected to the solar vents on the coachroof. Installed by the PO. I have looked at removing them but the existing glass headliner has been butchered. I have to come up with an alternate plan on how to hide the ugliness.

The admiral doen't like them either which is the biggest incentive to change.

Thanks Ray,(not that I designed it or anything) It was the interior that really sold us on this boat. The cockpit suffers a bit due to the aft cabin and the large bridge deck it's under, but mostly it's just the two of us on board.

The boat itself is quite nicely finished, much more completely so than the Nicholson versions...

btw Nikko is really reminiscent of the Passport 40 we were on in Mexico last month... beautiful!

I can almost see the bowling pins at the end of the lane. Beautiful boat!

I gotta say it again, Ray.. Nikko is a beautiful boat, especially in person. Just love the blue tile.

She is also "Seaworthy" down below.. Lots of room, but plenty of places to grab on in a sea.

While we are talking colors, Alex, I really like the colors you chose for the counter tops on the head. Sorry.. I would have left the wheels blue

Hillster: you must be very organized. First liveaboard of that size I've ever seen without junk all over the place.

Very nice, all!
