The interiors of the Cherubini 48s have been highly customized, according to the needs of the owners. Some have featured a comfortable owner's stateroom aft to port, with a double bed and its own head. Others have had more open space aft, with emphasis on a deck-accessible nav station and ample space for putting on foul weather gear.
Moving forward, there is usually a full U or L shaped galley to port. Forward of that is a classic, commodious main salon. Sometimes the main salon has included pilot berths, other times this space has been used for lockers.
Usually there is another head further forward and a modest forward cabin.
Whatever the configuration, the Cherubini style is constant. Throughout, there are lots of drawers and hanging lockers. Locker doors ususally have a beautiful cane inserts (both light and excellent for ventilation), but can be made with distinctive wood panels instead.
Some Cherubini 48s have been built with two cabin tops, providing two companionways, one into the aft cabin, and one into the main cabin. This configuration enables a full width aft cabin.
Depending on owners' needs, the interior can be fitted with air conditioning, washer/dryers, etc. Needless to say, the interior volume has limits, and trade-offs are always required. |
