TLC - Plato Photo Tour

As this boat was conceived from day one as a residential boat, the lounge/dining area is the largest single space at around 15ft, and is to be used as the principle accommodation. From the front doors, we have a tv/video/music cabinet on the port side, and a Morso Squirrel solid fuel stove on the starboard side. The client has a large collection of books, so a 7ft long bookcase links the tv cabinet to the settee/dinette on the port side. The 'L'-shaped settee is upholstered in black leather and can be used for relaxing in the evening, as a dinette with the table up (the table is supported on Desmo legs and can quickly and easily be put up/down), or made up as a guest double bed. The whole interior of the settee is used as drop-in storage. The front steps have hinged tops for further drop-in storage. Four 36inch windows provide excellent daylight illumination, with 2 round ceiling lights and 6 wall up-lighters (all separately switched) providing light at night. The flooring here and throughout the boat as far as the engine room is engineered oak, whilst the lining is solid oak T&G.
