Accommodations:
The vessel was originally designed by the military to carry 14 crewmen in the aft house area on the main deck located between frame 40 and the stern with two berthing compartments, a head/laundry, galley, mess room, store room, electrical distribution equipment room and muffler room located within this area. The two berthing compartments consisted of an original twelve (12) man berthing compartment on the port side and a two-man Chief Petty Officer (CPO) berthing space on the starboard side. The original crew quarters on the port side is now utilized as a break/recreation room while the smaller CPO berthing space retains two metal bunk beds for crew rest. A crew head/shower/laundry is located immediately aft of the original crew quarters/now break room. There are no wall or deck finishing other than painted insulation panels on the exterior bulkheads and overhead and painted insulation panels on the deck to insulate the spaces from the heat of the engine room below.

The galley is outfitted with a stainless steel counter with integral double sink with steel shelves above and below the counter top. A large residential type stainless steel refrigerator/freezer is fitted along with a simple 4-burner electric range and installed vent exhaust over the range. Other appliances include a coffee maker, microwave oven, and toaster.
Mess Room: A small mess room is fitted with a fixed table with bench seats along sides which should seat about six (6) persons simultaneously.
Head/Laundry: The head is outfitted with a single shower stall, toilet, and double stainless steel sinks, a commercial style clothes washing machine and dryer and electric hot water heater.
