NW Explorations
The forward head includes vanity sink, shower
stall, a ‘MasterFlush’ electric marine toilet, and
a washer and dryer. The MasterFlush toilet uses
freshwater to flush and pump waste into a
holding tank; using freshwater helps to reduce

home laundry and require 120-volt AC power
and can be used when connected to shore
power or when the generator is operating.
A fire extinguisher is mounted on the overhead
above the dryer
The shower operates just as your home shower with a hot and cold-water mixer. Grey water
from the shower drains into a sump below the teak grate and is pumped overboard. The drain
pump must be turned on with a chrome pull-switch inside of the
shower stall. The ‘Drain Pump’
breaker switch on the 12-volt DC panel must also be turned on.
The U-shaped galley is opposite of the
head and has a double sink, an electric
range, microwave, double refrigerator,
freezer under the counter. Groceries and
supplies can be stored in the over-counter
cabinets, under the floor, and in coolers on
the flybridge.
