REDSTART sleeps four in two staterooms, plus three in the main salon. The interior is beautifully crafted with satin-finished solid teak trim, paneled cabin doors, and louvered or lattice-front locker fronts throughout. Cabin soles are varnished laid teak and holly, with removable overhead panels bordered by laminated deck beams. Numerous opening port lights, deck hatches, cowl vents and a hull window provide very nice light and ventilation throughout. Interior fabrics were tastefully redone several years ago and show like new, including memory foam mattresses for all berths.
The forward cabin has a large V-berth which converts to a double with a filler piece. There are numerous lockers, two bureaus with drawers and two hanging lockers. A large hatch, two opening port lights and a dorade vent provide great ventilation. Further aft to starboard is a head with private entrance that includes a sink with vanity, shower, teak grate and ample storage.
The main salon features a full U-shaped settee to starboard, with centerline settee that hinges up for easy engine access. An up/down teak dining table allows expansion of settee to a double berth. A unique feature not found in any other LH 44’s is a large hull portlight (re-bedded 2024) which provides more light and visibility. To port is a settee, with nav station forward and pilot berth outboard.
The galley is aft to starboard, adjacent to the companionway, with the following highlights:
-
Grunert refrigerator and freezer with hold over plates
-
Force 10 3-burner stove with oven and broiler
-
Twin stainless steel sinks
-
