How is living on board?

Our ship is 35 meters long and 5 meters wide. The living space is now about 100m2
It has decreased slightly because we have replaced the guest room at the back of the ship for a terrace. This space used to be for the skipper and his family, which is why this type of freighter is called Luxe Motor. This is the name of this type of cargo ship that was built from the First World War. For the first time, the skipper also got the luxury of a cabin with galley, bedroom and toilet.
