Canadian Yachting October 2021 - 27

This comfortable port-side lounger lets a guest stretch out and converse with the driver.
INTERIOR - COCKPIT
The transom walk-through is on the
port side while the starboard side features
u-shaped seating that could accommodate
eight to ten people easily. The centre-mounted
table is ideal for drinks or
dining and storage for large items is available
under the seats.
Handholds are thoughtfully located
throughout the area. Also, there are a wide
range of interior upholstery and colour
choices available. An appealing feature
is the port side aft-facing sun lounge
seat that includes an armrest. Relax and
tan while facing the driver and enjoying
a conversation aboard the quiet and solid
Schaefer 303.
In the cockpit floor is a hatch that gives
access to the large, welded aluminum
fuel tank. All Schaefer yachts are built to
be NMMA Certified and the aluminum
tank includes two fuel shutoffs and easily
accessed fuel filter system. The hot water
system is also located in this area for easy
service.
Opposite the seating is the cockpit
galley that has the delightful feature of a
lighted glassware cabinet and our test boat
had a set of Schaefer glasses and stemware.
Drink holders located throughout
The twin Volvo Penta V6 280 stern drives are easily accessible for service checks.
the boat can accommodate both regular
glasses and stemware. At night, blue
foot-lighting is an attractive feature and
underwater lighting is available too.
The cockpit galley unit includes hot
and cold water, a sink, optional Isotherm
refrigerator and it can also be equipped
with an optional electric grill, but that
requires the generator option. If it were
my 303, I'd mount a conventional barbecue
on the stern instead unless I wanted
the generator for other purposes.
INTERIOR CABIN
The cabin is down four steps and features
a lower galley with a cooler and
storage for provisions. The test boat was
equipped with a microwave, an aftermarket
induction cooker and a coffee maker.
While the test boat did not have a generator,
it does have a very large battery bank
and an inverter to run the onboard features
like the microwave, television and so on.
Schaefer yachts has also equipped the
boat with AC outlets ready to go.
