Boat Features
The boat is a 28 ft. GRADY-WHITE SAILFISH. Named the FULL DECK, this is a traditional express cruiser with a large open cockpit aft, a helm deck midship and a walk-around cuddy cabin forward of the helm. Though we will typically limit our total number of passengers and crew to six, the open cockpit area aft of the helm can accommodate seating of five passengers, while the helm seats the captain and one crew/mate. Two people may sit on a cushioned seating area on the bow above the cuddy stateroom when the vessel is not underway.
The cuddy cabin is a single stateroom design with equipment storage, a sleep/rest area, a small galley with sink, fridge and single burner stove.
For your comfort there is an enclosed bathroom compartment with a flushing marine toilet and sink. The water system is pressurized with both hot and cold running water.
There is always at least one cooler aboard containing bottled water and ice.
