Marinaut Interior Dinette, Galley, and Storage of the "Betty Ann"
The cabin, shown with the bulkhead removed in Les' photo on Facebook, in our view is quite large. One could argue that it is really 7' 7" long, and the 5' 9" berth extends out 18" into the cabin, which allows a person to sit on the berth while visiting with three other people in the cabin, as well as allowing easy access to the portable toilet under the center cushion. Of course, when the left, rear cushions are put into place, the berth extends to a total length of 7', reducing the floor space in the cabin at night. Visually however, the cabin still looks 7' 7"' long. That's the genius of this design. Please notice, too, the width of the floor in front of the dinette and galley: it is wide enough for two people to easily pass one another, which we feel is an important feature for living comfortably in a small boat.

The space between the helm seat and galley cabinet, and right of throttle, is great for books and maps

O.k. -- we brought along too much stuff, but nevertheless, the galley cabinet has a large capacity, aided by the nice upper-level shelf.

A view of the dinette and top shelf. This dinette very comfortably fits large people like me (I'm 5'11.5" tall and 250 lbs., and am very comfortable.) One of the things that makes this dinette comfortable is that the table does not use (or need) a support leg. Below the dinette table is a very large storage shelf with a high lip that extends from the bulkhead to the end of the co-pilot seat. Simply put: the storage capacity of this boat is amazing.

A very convenient shelf attached to the port, dinette wall
