The Proper Nav Station
 

Have a look at the nav station on the 35s5...

That table slides out and is bigger than any other boat I've seen under
40 feet, big enough for a real chart and perfect for big chart books.
It hinges up for storage below. There is a huge hinged door below for
nav gear and chart stowage behind. All electronics and electrical
controls are localized and are also fitted beneath. The station is also
in easy earshot of the cockpit of course.

Table extended to max size...

Aren't you at all concerned about the instruments being just above the stove
top? Seems like bad placement for a number of reasons, the most important of
which is that you might cook the wrong stuff.

???? I think you're confused. There are no instruments near the stove.
The whole galley is on the port side. The Nav is to starboard.

Ok... then what is underneath the chart board?

Wow, it has a folding top just like Express yachts had way back in 84.

Yes, but the Depress 30 and 35 also have interiors that look like 70's
vans. And the 35s5 chart table is still larger than either.
You lose AGAIN!

A large shallow storage area for chart tools. The whole side of the
cabinet beneath also hinges out to reveal a lot of storage. To
starboard is a shelf with a long cover, beneath that is additional
chart stowage. I use a chart book, so that will hold other stuff.
Compared to the C&C 32 there's really more storage than we can use.

Interesting... maybe I was thinking of another boat.
