Her interior offers three double cabins and two heads, finished in teak, with a bright raised saloon and a well-equipped galley. For extended cruising she carries 1,000 L of fresh water and 800 L of fuel, complemented by a 100 L/h watermaker, air conditioning, washer/dryer and an 8 kW Paguro generator. Navigation and communications equipment includes Raymarine electronics, radar, autopilot, AIS, VHF, SSB, Navtex and Starlink.
Power is provided by a Volvo Penta TMD31L-A 100 hp diesel with approximately 5,600 hours, driving a Gori three-blade folding propeller. The engine has not been replaced; recent significant mechanical work included repairs to the water pump and one valve, with the extent of the work involving much of the engine. Further service history and details are currently being gathered from the owner. Her cutter sail plan includes a 70 m² furling genoa, 20 m² jib, 50 m² mainsail and spinnaker with snuffer, supported by four electric and four manual Lewmar winches. Standing rigging was inspected in 2022 and 2025.
