Interior Accommodations:

Puffin’s interior is beautifully finished in teak, characteristic of the high-quality workmanship produced by the Ta Shing boatyard.

Beginning forward, the master stateroom features a large V-berth with split mattress & access forward to the divided chain locker. There is tremendous storage below and outboard as well as two large hanging lockers to port. A large overhead hatch with screen plus three opening ports provide ventilation in this area.

Next aft to starboard a head with separate shower stall that is far more spacious than boats even much larger. There is a stainless steel vanity sink in a marble countertop, hot/cold pressure water plus a brass manual pump and generous storage. A Dorade vent and opening port provide ventilation in the bathroom area.

Amidships is the very comfortable salon space with straight settee to port & L-shape settee to starboard. To starboard is a gorgeous inlaid teak table on an adjustable bronze pedestal base. The water tank is located below the starboard settee and there is storage under the port settee, starboard settee return, behind seatback and outboard against the hull. The nav station is aft facing at the aft end of the starboard settee. There are four opening ports and the signature teak butterfly hatch with screens that provide light and ventilation for the main cabin area.

The aft stateroom is to starboard adjacent to the companionway. There is a large double berth, generous storage and ventilation from two opening ports a Dorade vent.

Opposite to port is a beautiful seagoing galley with exceptional storage and counter space. There is a massive refrigeration and freezer compartment with top loading access to the freezer and top and front loading access for the fridge. Two opening ports, a Dorade vent and the companionway hatch provide ventilation in the galley area.

The companionway is on centerline with removable steps and box for access to the engine. There is a storage locker behind the companionway steps. The companionway entry has removable louvered teak doors plus a set of teak drop boards.

Deck and Hull

Puffin’s hull shape is the classic Robert H Perry underbody with cutaway full keel. Her hull is solid fiberglass with cored fiberglass deck. Her hull is white gelcoat with green boot stripe and sheer stripe. Her bulwarks are painted green and capped with teak that is finished bright. Side decks are teak overlay that is in excellent condition. The cabintop features a molded nonskid pattern. There are tracks for the staysail leads on the cabin top and genoa leads on the side decks. Tall stainless stanchions with double lifelines surround the deck. There are boarding gates to port and starboard. At the bow there is a teak platform on the bowsprit that supports two anchors. A platform at the stern gives working space for using the stern anchor, stern tie reel or outboard motor lift. The cockpit offers good protection with high coamings and comfortable seating. There is a shallow locker to starboard, a deep locker to port and two additional lockers further aft, one for storage and one for propane.
