Below Deck
Hesper is comfortable and cozy down below. Because our charters are private, and limited to your group, there are many different accommodations arrangements available.
To access below deck there is a companionway hatch aft. It is wide and safe. When you reach below decks you are greeted with a beautiful chart table to starboard, and the galley directly to port.
The view looking up through the companionway hatch.
Moving forward you will find the common area. A large library, wood stove and our dinning room table fills the space. A beautiful open butterfly hatch allows great light and ventilation. There is a traditional Pilot Berth above the wood stove. Meals, scrabble and wine are all had here.
Walking forward past the mast you will find our sleeping areas. To starboard of the head is our Premium Bunk. A double wide bunk perfect for couples (we have removed the top bunk to allow for greater space). Forward of that, and separated by a door is our forward bunks. It is a small space, but functional.
We have a single head. There is a hot water shower and sink for all guests.
We have the ability to store small amounts of luggage. While Hesper is elegant and beautiful, her lodgings are simple. We liken it to camping on the water. Please pack accordingly. We do not have any outlets on board, but can accommodate USB Charging for phones. We find that guests don’t spend much time down below.
