2001 Bruckmann 50 Custom pilot house

From the spacious cockpit, a sliding door enters into the beautiful pilothouse expanding the bright indoor/outdoor entertaining space, plus the 360-degree visibility. Here one finds a U-shaped dinette to port (which can convert to a double berth), and to starboard, two comfortable built- in barrel chairs. Forward of this, is the inside steering area complete with chart table, chair and full electronics.

Down three steps, to port, is the wrap around galley and a large centerline food pantry, which houses the washer/dryer in it's base.

This area is bright and open, lit by the pilothouse windows above.

Counter tops are Corian

The galley is equipped with Sea Frost 110v/12v refridgeration/freezer system.

Force 10 three burner propane stove with oven

Double S.S sinks

Opposite the galley there is a library/den, which is very versatile. It has a large china cabinet, a writing/computer desk, bookshelves, magazine racks, a media center, bar and a large sofa which can convert to a double berth.

Forward to starboard, there is a guest cabin, with double berth, hanging locker and night table. To port the guest head shares a large adjoining shower unit with the master head.

The master cabin is forward has an oversize V berth with removable center piece, a private head, mirrored makeup table and bench, hanging locker and storage drawers.
