She is a luxury boat made of GRP, with  semi-displacement trawler features to enable good sea-keeping and pleasant sailing.  There is a spacious elevated teak aft deck which is perfect for socializing, whale/dolphin watching or fishing,  beyond and below that is a fishing area  and at the very stern of the boat is the swiming/diving platform.

Captain Joe Gal** and I aboard a 45 foot sailboat [i'm taking the picture] . We were doing boat deliveries  to and from Corsica, (what a great life !) when we came across a stricken vessel piloted by a French ex-general  (whom Joe of course knew) with his  wife Annie,  we towed them home safely. Some strange things happened over the course of that Corsican delivery.
