Accommodations
The boat was built for live-aboard cruising and has roomy accommodations. These include a pilothouse, port settee, huge V-berth, salon double berth to starboard, and head with shower and ceramic tile floor. All the berths and settees have underneath storage, and there is quite a bit of under sole storage as well. Beneath the cockpit, accessed by two lazarette hatches is about eighty cubic feet of storage also.

The boat sleeps 7 in the V-berth, salon double and single, and pilothouse queen. The pilothouse queen needs to be replaced. The head with shower has plenty of storage and a 25-gallon holding tank with macerator. The second head has been converted to a closet but is easily changed back. A Mermaid 16,000 BTU Air Conditioning System will keep you in comfort.

Additional
The boat is in need of some care. She is seaworthy, but needs some work, such as cleaning and paint and interior work. She is easy to handle and has an excellent autopilot. This makes raising and lowering the sails very easy. When underway with the sails balanced the autopilot is not required. The sailing performance and sea kindliness of â��Shiloh" will please you for years to come.
