We think the Marinaut 215 has one of the best blends of space usage available on a 21' 6" boat. There are always compromises but we knew (from asking boat owners) that most said they wanted a nice sized cockpit and a comfortable cabin with overnight accommodations and we think we gave them what they aske
This drawing shows the space available under the rear deck (in the motorwell area) and the location of the portable toilet, water tank, and anchor locker.
The drawing above shows the location of many structures in the boat. Of particular note is the cockpit/cabin floor: it's a one piece molding from the stern to the bow. The drawing clearly shows the slope of the cockpit floor so that water drains aft to the sump area and the sill at the forward end of the cockpit to keep water out of the cabin. Having a big sale, on-site celebrity, or other event? Be sure to announce it so everybody knows and gets excited about it.

The aft cabin bulkhead is optional and removable; removing it leaves the aft end of the cabin completely open to the cockpit and a canvas drop curtain is optional. There is a sill at the forward end of the cockpit to keep any water on the deck from entering the cabin when the aft bulkhead is removed or the door is open.

The cockpit has a flat floor and is large enough for fishing, crabbing, and shrimping (prawning). It s also large enough for a couple of nice deck chairs and a table. In addition it s large enough to accommodate a couple of sleepers if need be. With camper canvas the cockpit becomes another large "room" which is much appreciated in inclement weather. In hotter weather a Bimini top over the cockpit will give shade and protection from the sun.

The forward v-berth will accommodate someone about 5' 10" laying down comfortably without the berth extensions; with the berth extensions in place the v-berth is about 7' long. It's quite wide and comfortable and with no cabin bulkhead on the port side it s very easy to get in and out and has an open airy feeling. The portable toilet is located under the center v-berth filler cushion.
