53' Bruce Roberts Pilothouse Ketch

Accommodations

She is roomy and bright with a high freeboard that opens up 9' of clearance making plenty of headroom and no tight squeezes moving fore or aft. The interior cockpit, salon, and galley that are paneled in sunny white Baltic birch with teak trim. There are 27 windows and 7 Moonlight hatches on Llyr.

The cabin is accessed by a companionway sliding hatch at the forward side of the cockpit. The hatch is secured with swinging doors and hatch boards. Just inside the hatch to starboard at the top of the ladder is the pilothouse helm station with wheel helm and full engine controls and instrumentation. VHF and SSB radios are mounted starboard of the helm in the pilothouse. The cabin spaces are arranged, starting forward, with port and starboard private cabins, each with double berths. Walking aft is an enclosed head with shower to port, followed by a diesel heater and galley with top-loading reefer, three-burner stove with oven, and double stainless steel sinks. Aft of the galley is a door that leads into the engine room, which also houses one of the fuel tanks, waste tank, and water pressure pump. Opposite the head and diesel heater is the U-shaped dining settee. Aft of the settee is the starboard side passageway that leads aft to the aft cabin and head. Along the passageway's outboard side is a navigation desk and single berth with the second fuel tank below. The aft cabin has single berths to port and starboard and an enclosed head with shower forward to port.
