We are taking the following items with us, but are shown on the photo's:
• Daewoo mini washing machine
• Two sirocco fans
• Starlink

We have invested a lot of time and money to get her cruising, but the project is not finished yet. We upgraded parts of the layout for enhanced comfort: took the navigation table out, made the galley bigger and lowered the floor, moved the electronics to the old sink corner. Adjusted the anchor locker so it drains overboard instead of the bilge. The forward head has been refitted to install a waste tank. We also changed the companion way stairs to have bigger steps with curved sides.

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!
Then onto the to-do list:
The interior carpentry needs to be finished and the floor needs to be painted or covered with vinyl.
A lot of ceiling panels (most of the work) and trim pieces are missing.
The cabin with the bunkbeds is still untouched; we use this as storage / garage and there are no cushions or hull liner.
The V berth can be used, comfortable mattress, but needs panelling/carpentry
Having experience with carpentry or having someone finish it would be recommended for visual aesthetics.
The engine room would also benefit from work, it was still on our to-do list as we wanted to paint the bilge, freshen up the insulation and some epoxy/gelcoat repairs and new kiwi grip on the cockpit floor.

We estimate that the materials would be another 2000euro depending on availability if you do the works yourself. There is enough paint on board to finish in the same color. Finishing the interior will take a decent amount of time, please do not underestimate this if you want to do the work yourself.
