After my release from the tangle of ropes, we finned past broken windows along a companionway, and found a door ripped from its hinges. |
To minimize maintenance, the only wood used in the entire boat is the tiller and the only opening to the area below deck is the companionway. |
I repeated my earlier journey back past the wheelhouse and up the companionway. |
I made one more trip forward, through the big main cabin, and climbed up the steps of the forward companionway. |
Storage is beneath the berth cushions, and an optional portable toilet fits along the companionway. |
I took a relaxed look inside the wheelhouse and made my way along a short companionway to the small aft section. |
