The entire aft section comprising engine hatch and rear seats lifts on gas-assist struts to give very clear access to the engine. The mouldings are curved and sensuous with usual Lewis high-quality seating and trim. The drink holders in the front part of the hatch over the transmission are real handy for those in the back seats.

A nice touch at the transom was this neatly recessed hot and cold shower. It uses raw water from the engine's cooling system, but does the job and has proven popular for warming up when coming out of colder water after a ski.
The back of the observers seat hinged sideways to give easier-than-usual entry into the large, carpeted storage area under the foredeck that gave room-to-spare for skis, boards and safety gear. Under the observers seat base was the battery where it could be conveniently checked, plus another storage bin. Webbing side pockets down the sides of the cockpit held other bits and pieces.
