Notas históricas
Peter Harvey states "Euphemia II perfectly captures the aesthetic of west coast cruisers of its time. Its graceful lines and powerful presence is underpinned by fine materials and excellent craftsmanship. This vessel has a tri-cabin layout. The forward cabin sleeps 2. The center cabin is the wheelhouse. The aft cabin contains the galley and the saloon. The saloon can dine 6 or sleep 2. The main head is in the aft cabin with a ‘night head’ in the forward cabin."
