"FreeStyle" 1988 Pacific Seacraft 24'

Full Description

Accommodations

With 6' 1" headroom the Dana 24 feels like a much larger boat. Stepping down the companionway, to port is a full galley with a gimbaled Force 10 two burner propane stove with oven, a large insulated icebox, a 10" deep sink with hand pump and a fold-up extension to the counter space. To starboard is the walk-in head compartment with manual head, a sink with hand pump, an integral shower pan and a hanging wet locker.

Four people can sleep comfortably with two 6' 6" settees and a forward V-berth that is 6' 8" long and 6' 9" wide. There is additional storage in two large drawers and a drop locker beneath the berth, cabin shelving and a hanging locker. A clever dining table slides out from beneath the V berth when needed. The interior exudes the warmth of had rubbed oiled teak with teak joinery and cabinets above a teak and holly sole. Eight bronze opening ports and a large Bomar deck hatch provide good light and ventilation.

The builder boats that the Dana 24s interior is "fully 50 percent larger than other boats of similar length".
