Layout C

From memory, sacrificed one of the quarter berths in favour of cockpit stowage. The galley was moved aft to the bulkhead to provide space for seating to starboard. It was the least produced of the three layouts.

B layout was the most popular and conventional by today's standards - it involved the saloon table having seating around it on two sides i.e. a letter 'L'. The person at the end sat with their back to the bulkhead faciong bak towards the companionway steps.

Layout C was slightly different with the table moved forward against the bulkhead so you only have seating donw one side.

Layout A was a bit more quirky and the least popular - the seats were bench seats across the boat i.e. you had 4 seats arranged as two pairs of opposite places but you have to shuffle in a bit like a church pew!

Personally I preferred B layout, and based on the volumes around so did most of the buying market in their day.

Hope this helps. You can probably get a more easily understadable picture on the westerly owners website, along with other advice.
