A shipwright for nearly 30 years, Diana built a strong and beautiful cockpit for Pax. Inspired by the curves of her hull and original Danish craftsmanship, Diana created a secure lazaret for the improved diesel tank, battery compartment, manual bilge pump access and still left me a full view of the gorgeous stern interior. This open aft access makes storing lines and fenders easy and keeps air moving freely while we're in safe interior waters. A center watertight lift out panel makes easy access to packing gland, two sea cocks, engine cables and mounts. In open ocean, we'll add a safety panel to make the cockpit water tight. Teak and wana were used throughout.
