Anthozoa has the classic Freeman layout including “V” berth to the forward cabin, with opening hatch to let the breeze flow through the cabin on warm sunny days. The “V” berth creates the first of two double berths.

Going aft you will find a toilet compartment with a Thetford Porta Potti. Opposite this compartment is a full-length hanging wardrobe. The folding doors can provide a partition between forward and aft cabins if required.

To port there is a dinette area which converts into an eating area for 4 or by storing the table you create a comfortable lounge or second double berth. As well as other storage, there is a china and a glass locker.

The galley is to starboard with a hand basin with electric pumped cold water with workspace. Under the workspace there is room for a gas cooker and hob (not installed). Throughout the galley and cabin there is ample storage.

Two steps up to the cockpit there is a helm seat (port), navigator seat (starboard) and a bench seat (aft). All cockpit seating is blue and white vinyl. The canopy is in good condition with a central zip providing cover for the helm. The cockpit is where you will find an electric fridge.

There is easy access to the side decks (non-slip paint), varnished wood handrails to the cabin top with a stainless steel pulpit to the bow make moving around the deck safe and easy. The mast is also varnished wood.

The present owner has enjoyed this boat for the last 15 years.
