Is that Starck or stark?

Here's what Bob Perry has to say about my interior....


"The first Beneteau interiors that were designed by Starck were greeted
with comments about radically modern style. I find these interiors
novel and modern but strangely comfortable with their blend of aluminum
details and curved, dark mahogany panels. In some ways, these interiors
seem more traditional than do the "apple crate" all teak interiors that
bombarded us in the last decade. "

Starck. In fact my interior is hand-signed by her designer and the
interior numbered. When I contacted Beneteau with the hull # they said
they could provide parts specific to my interior which is the custom
teak owners version. Other mods to my interior ordered by the
owner....upgraded light fixtures (which I don't like), additional wood
surfaces in main cabin and aft, custom opaque blind set for all ports
and hatches and exterior port covers as well.
The details are great....LED floor and step lights in the main cabin
and aft, full sized chart table that slides away for additional counter
space. Marble inserts for galley, upgraded larger 12V fridge (just
learned we had it!). Every bilge access has a dust pan...fit and finish
is practically air tight.The cabin is beautiful and feels very
traditional after a while, just as Bob Perry pointed out.

I'm glad you do. Dust and debris in the bilge areas is not a good thing
and can shorten the service life of a bilge pump or render it
inoperable. A bilge on a well kept boat should be clean and dry and
dust pans are a good step in that direction.
