G31 Aldebaron
Forward saloon set up with dining table

The convertible main saloon forward offers 2 single settee / berths, port and starboard, which can be swung together to form a center line double bed. The upholstery is a very durable blue Ultrasuede.

  • Forward of this is a large cedar lined hanging locker. There is a centerline coffee table, which converts to a full dining table with the addition of a separate table top, stored in the vast storage area behind the port settee. The feeling one gets in the salon area of this vessel is one of a much larger yacht then 31 feet.

  • Across from the nav station, midship port side, is the galley with lots of storage space.
  • Aft to port is the head with vanity and sink, shower, and storage. The countertop is Corian with a stainless steel sink.
  • Aft to starboard is the owner’s stateroom with a queen berth, hanging locker, shelf and drawer with storage under the bunk and access to engine and prop shaft.
