Remarks
"Ulysses" is simply one of a kind in classic offshore trawlers and has a look that's all business. "Ulysses" was on the front cover of 1998 edition of PassageMaker trawler and ocean motorboat magazine with with a very impressive 14 page write up. "Ulysses" stands alone as the quintessential long range cruiser for comfortable cruising. A strong classic "little ship" for the serious cruiser.

Accommodations
The interior of "Ulysses" reflects a true world class offshore traveler for comfort and function. Her interior woodwork and features evoke a charming, warm atmosphere. She is not a yacht for the inexperienced or the condo set. She is a yacht built to high standards and will go the distance in comfort and safety.
Master Stateroom
Just forward of amidship is the full width master stateroom with a large queen berth to starboard, cabinets above and storage beneath. The berth is lit by twin reading lights. At the foot of the bed is a 5-drawer cabinet which is next to a cedar lined hanging locker. Opposite to port is a single bed with 6-drawers beneath. At the food of the bunk is a hanging locker. In addition there is a seat at the head of the single bunk with storage beneath. Above is a large custom chart storage case that folds down. Each bunk is served by fans, lights, and air conditioning. Against the aft bulkhead is a large yachting print, which conceals a writing desk containing a magazine rack and letter storage. There are drawers beneath. Additional lighting is provided with four ports and two deck prisms. A raised large overhead hatch also provides excellent natural ventilation and lighting. All cabins are bright, spacious, and exhibit quality woodwork. Aft and up a couple of steps through a watertight bulkhead door to a landing provides access to the master head to port and engine room ladder to starboard. The head is semicircular with a water closet, fixtures, shower, sink, storage, and tile counter top. Up a couple of steps to the main salon / galley area
Guest Stateroom
Beginning forward on centerline is the guest head with shower, vanity and sink. Aft of the forward head through a door is the guest stateroom containing four berths: upper and lower to port and starboard. At the forward end of each berth is a large hanging locker with shelf above. Each bunk has individual lee cloths in blue and white. Adjacent to the front of the bunks are small tables and cabinets. The floor is covered with a gray carpet. At the aft bulkhead is a ladder to a large "scuttle" deck hatch which exits to the foredeck. Each bunk has its own reading light and fan, and the cabin is air conditioned. There are four ports with fans for ventilation and two deck prisms. There is a watertight bulkhead door going from this stateroom to the master.
Salon
The salon is aft of the galley with a large L-shaped settee dinette area to starboard with a beautifully handcrafted dining table. Forward of the settee is a cabinet with storage and AC vent with controls. Next to the end of the galley with a bulkhead on centerline contains the Northern Lights S-3C generator monitoring panel. To port opposite is a complete entertainment center with a Magnavox (flat screen) TV raising and lowering from a lovely wood cabinet. In the port aft quarter of the main salon is a small cabinet. A Dutch door opens to the aft deck, which provides additional outdoor seating. The interior is accented in white varnished trim, blue covers and a gray carpet. Light flows aboard via large windows port and starboard that have been double paneled with mini-blinds sandwiched in the glass and also in the aft window behind the dinette, plus several lamps and recessed lighting. The entire area is air conditioned.
Head
Starting forward on the accommodation level is the guest head which contains a water closet, shower, mirror, vanity, sink, ample storage and a tiled countertop. Two fixed ports and a deck prism provide additional lighting and a Dorade, fresh air ventilation. A second head is on the landing level area to port that is opposite the engine room entrance.
Galley
The galley is on the port side in the main salon deck level area that has an athwartship passageway which exits on either end to the outside deck walkaround via Dutch doors. Against the forward bulkhead is a holding plate refrigerator and freezer system of 22 cubic feet. There are two 110-volt compressors that service the unit; a primary and backup system. Adjacent is a 3-burner propane stove with a microwave above. Facing aft is a white tiled countertop that is open to the main salon. There are twin stainless steel sinks, ample storage, spice and dish storage, and lighting above.
Pilothouse
From the athwartship passageway next to the galley is a 4-step companionway on starboard up to the enclosed pilothouse, which runs the full width of the superstructure. Behind the helm is a large settee with storage beneath, a monitoring TV and bookrack above, and five opening pocket windshield windows. In the port quarter is a large custom chart table. There is a wing door to port. The door leads to the top sundeck with seating and storage area. The port door also leads to a ladder to the main foredeck. The pilothouse is air conditioned, has stereo, and is extremely open and user friendly.
