1988 Waterline 50

Entering the interior down the companionway the aft double cabin entry is to port. The yacht's single bathroom is to starboard and the large galley commands the upper level.  Moving down into the roomy saloon all upholstery is new and so much joinery has been replaced with solid hard woods.  The new hardwood deckheads have flush fitting lights throughout.  Full forward the double cabin is well lit and has an overhead hatch. 

The yacht has one bathroom with dry head, shower, sink and vanity.   The head is a 'Sealand Vacuflush' connected to a ten gallon holding tank and macerator.

The 'Vacuflush' operates with a pump generated vacuum which uses only about a pint of water per flush.  This is a fresh water operation, ensuring no nasty odours that arise from saltwater flushing.  The system draws 4-6 amps.
