Airielle is a very large 46 foot boat. Her hull shape has lots of volume, but she still has very respectable sailing characteristics.
Still, there are practical limits! That is why I keep my trip occupancy to 5 including me. Let's face it, we will get to know each other pretty well after a few days at sea.
Airielle has a spacious aft stateroom that is perfect for a couple. Up forward, there are over and under bunks with lee cloths - to keep you where you belong when the going gets rough.
In the main salon, the settee converts into over and under bunks. And when King Neptune makes things exciting, we all end up in snug nooks and crannies in the salon!
It can be a bit like a slumber party for a bunch of 10 year olds, but hey, that is part of the fun.
All in all, Airielle is very comfortable and well designed for life on the water.

Her galley is huge, and I've been able to cook up some great food with her propane oven. There is a ton of space for dry storage.
As noted in the
"What to Bring" section, challenge yourself to minimize your gear and clothing, and we will have plenty of room to store your travel bag and safely tie everything down.

One of Airielle's great features is her hard top over the cockpit. It is a welcome relief from the sun, rain and sea spray.
