Vessel Walk Through:

 

From tender or dock you step aboard the Passport 470 Center Cockpit through either the port or starboard boarding gates and onto the wide side decks that offer excellent and safe maneuverability fore and aft. The foredeck can accommodate a 9’ dinghy for off shore stowage and provides easy access to the windlass and twin bow rollers. The aft deck provides access to a large lazarette, stern arch for inshore dinghy stowage, outboard motor mount/lift, rail mounted life raft, and stern boarding ladder.

The cockpit has seating for a crowd with large settees both port and starboard and the helm seat offers excellent visibility and easy access to all engine controls and navigation tools. All lines for sail control lead to the cockpit making sailing by a couple an easy task. The cockpit is sun and weather protected by a dark blue bimini, dodger, connector, and side panels.

Through the companionway door you enter the main cabin. Extremely well thought out, the main cabin is spacious and light. Under the companionway steps is access into the clean engine compartment with easy access for checking daily or for major repairs.

​

Starboard and aft is the galley area which is large and offers exceptional space for the onboard chef. Plenty of counter top room for preparing most any gourmet meal. You can enter aft stateroom through the galley. The aft cabin is large with a centered queen size berth, ample cabinet, and drawer spaces and plenty of natural light and ventilation. Along the port side is access into the head compartment. You can also enter the head compartment down the port side companionway from the salon. The head offers two separate areas. First has the vanity and toilet and the forward is the separate shower stall. Privacy doors port and starboard keep the aft cabin private and quiet.

​

Aft of the salon to port is the navigation station with cabinet and desk storage. The seat faces forward and allows for excellent communication with guests in the salon. The salon is large with port side settee and outboard storage and cabinets, while to starboard is a unique settee that can be used as two separate chairs with the addition of the centered removable cocktail table or it can be used as a single settee or sea berth. Centered is a beautiful salon table with two tops. One for dining and one for a cocktail table. The table can be lowered. Further forward is the V-Berth with plenty of room for storage with cabinets and drawers. The V-Berth has a private head with a separate shower stall.
