Beautiful Teak with custom Umpa Lumpa head

Anyone know this boat? At first glance the teak on the interior is unreal, a bit to much for what I'd like to upkeep. But then you come to the head, not great pictures but as I look at it I can't see where anyone can actually fit in it...Maybe it's bigger then it looks?

Images are distorted because a fish-eye lens was used on some shots. Thats much more head than one gets on most SF 31's yeah? Nicely designed too. Seems very functional to me.
It seems strange to have all that teak veneer & teak/holly sole in the cabin, and to not have a teak cockpit sole & covering boards... off balance.
Beautiful interior though.
I don't know what the world may want,
But a good stiff drink it surely dont,
Think I'll go and fix myself...a tall one.

I guess the money went to the bright work and not to the power. Typical boater.

Sits bow heavy.

Not fazed by the cockpit...other then nice, clean and open. typical 31.
Amazed at the Interior...some beautiful work and layout.

Open engine hatches and I gotta say my 440's look better.

Bridge...is this the same boat??

I wonder if they reenforced the transom when they cut that door into it.

The owner is probably a retired cabinet maker.

Interior looks similar to some of the Warton redo's
