With a theoretical maximum of five berths, Seadog 30's actually offer four very practicable berths, with good privacy for the two aft cabin occupants. In common with the majority of her class sisters, the aft cabin's single berths have not been converted to a double berth in this example, but easily could be if required.
The Main Saloon features two single berth/settees that run parallel to the centreline, with a double leafed, folding table, mounted on a part bulkhead between the galley and the saloon area and offset to the port side of the centreline, although the port side leaf is of sufficient size to extend to the starboard berth/settee. The forward bulkhead incorporates two closed and two cave lockers (with the starboard one dedicated as a drinks locker) to either side of the centreline doorway to the for'peak. Good light values are achieved by the relatively deep toughened glass windows to either side of the coachroof, with a small, moulded and translucent opening hatch over the centreline table. Each bunk is provided with a reading lamp, fitted with replacement LED bulbs, as are the more general overhead lights. The upholstery has been replaced for the 2022 season.
A folding Chart table is located immediately to starboard of the companionway, abaft a bulkhead separating the galley and chart table from the main saloon. The chart table's surface folds neatly and easily down over the head end of the pilot berth, with a dedicated chart storage drawer beneath the berth's cushion. The main 12V DC distribution board is fitted above, on a hinged panel for ease of access to the wiring and connections behind.
Opposite the chart table and to port is the Galley, featuring a deep and snug U-shape for security when at sea. The original gas cooker has been replaced by a two-burner alcohol cooker, although a modern gas-burning unit could easily be reinstated. The current owners have put a 240V AC stand-alone oven beneath the alcohol cooker fopr use in marinas. Storage abounds, with two top-access lockers for staples and bulky cooking utensils alongside and outboard of the cooker. Crockery and smaller groceries storage are catered for in the bulkhead-mounted unit above a stainless steel sink, with a further shelved locker and four drawers provided beneath work top level. Freshwater is manually pumped. There is no hot water provision as yet (although an engine heated 'calorifier' would be a practicable proposition, with the modern engine being an indirectly cooled unit). A 12V DC ventilator fan, seen in the pictures was unserviceable and has been removed. A natty companionway step unit incorporates a further storage drawer and useful provision for a rubbish bin beneath its upper step.
The depth of window, combined with its level above the galley make for good views from within the galley.
A traditional-style for'peak up forward offers the separation and privacy for a relatively generous sized Heads compartment. Lavac sea toilet offset to port, moulded basin to port with manually pumped fresh water. Overhead opening hatch to foredeck. Forward storage area with shelves along each hull side.
The Aft Cabin is accessed separately from/over the cockpit and features two single berths (heads at the forward end, feet toward the transom). A centreline, fiddled storage surface, together with a box over the steering systems operating rod - toward the port berth have been provided with additional cushions that add to the width of this particular berth and clearly these particularly panels could be replaced with one common support panel over the footwell itself if a double berth was felt necessary.
Four fixed windows provide good light levels within this space and an opening portlight, mounted in the aft face of the coachroof is provided for effective ventilation.
