Accomodation has clearly been designed to meet IMS and IRC requirements. There is a designated navigation area to port, just forward of the double owners' berth. A storage area divides the two.

the starboard side of the Sydney 38 there is a galley and sink arrangement, more storage space and then a folding settee berth as well as a set of dual stacked bunks.
