L-shaped seating is to port and wraps around a solid wood pedestal table. Opposite, the dual-level full bar has five stools in fixed positions.

By keeping a boat’s steering system in proper working order, an owner can ensure that he/she has reliable and proper control of a boat at all times. Lack of maintenance is the major contributor to stiff steering and in some extreme cases, cable seizure. We suggest the following periodic maintenance at least twice a year. More...
