Interior Specs:
– The interior is warm and welcoming having the feel of a fine crafted yacht. It sleeps four quite comfortably; it works great for a couple and is over the top for just the captain.

– There is a three burner propane stove, stainless steel sink with Moen faucets.
– A new dometic three way fridge and freezer, put in two yrs ago, that is very efficient. There is also a convection micro oven.
– The head is set up for shower, toilet, and small vanity, with a small basin and faucet.
– Lots of storage spaces inside the coach, drawers, shelving, and little hiding spots everywhere.

Needs:
