Cockpit: The cockpit provides an enclosed outdoor space for relaxing with a cocktail or enjoying a meal. Open the enclosure for fishing underway or at anchor.  Enter the cockpit from the aft swim platform or from either side boarding door. You have hatch access to the lazarette below. There are shore power connections aft and forward and a cockpit shower is built into the transom.  The starboard side deck transits from the cockpit to the foredeck. Access to the interior is through her double weather-tight aluminum Diamond SeaGlaze saloon door.

Saloon: The saloon has a comfortable L-shaped settee to starboard in Ultra-leather and two Stressless chairs with Ottomans to port and a fixed mounted high-low teak table. The interior is bright and contemporary with satin finished cherry and teak and holly floors. An icemaker was added in 2015.

Galley: The gourmet galley has been laid out with all of the essentials including a deep basin Corian sink, purified water tap, GE refrigerator and freezer.  There is overhead storage and ample drawers for glasses, dishes, utensils and silverware. For preparing meals there is a convection microwave oven and a Viking four burner propane range and oven. Additional storage to port for pots, pans and wine glasses.

Pilothouse: The pilothouse offers excellent visibility all around from the Stidd helm chair, and a bench seat, that pulls out to a full size off watch berth. There is an impressive assortment of Simrad (2017) navigation/communication electronics with controls for the bow thruster, engine, and generator. The electrical panel is installed in an easily accessed panel to port with clearly labeled breakers and digital displays. Two aluminum Dutch doors open outboard to allow access to the side decks.  The port door provides entry to the foredeck or aft to the boat deck and flybridge. The starboard door provides access to foredeck or aft to the cockpit.

Master Stateroom: The master stateroom features an island queen forward, two hanging lockers to port and starboard with six large drawers under berth. Eight drawers in the dresser to aft with mirror above.  Deep storage is available under the berth with hydraulic lift.  A flat screen television is mounted aft to starboard.

Engine Room:  You can enter by lifting the stairs to the saloon or through hatch in sole of saloon. The John Deere main engine is mounted on centerline.  The aft section of the engine room has a Northern Lights generator on center. The aluminum main fuel tanks outboard are plumbed to the main, generator and ESI fuel polisher/transfer system with supply and return.  The engine room is protected by Fireboy fire suppression system. Batteries are divided into three banks, house bank four AGM 8D (2017), engine start AGM 8D, and generator start AGM 4D (2017).  Two Magnum inverter/chargers offer redundancy and faster charging of batteries.  The Automatic Generator Start AGS (2018) ensures the batteries are charged properly even if the vessel is unattended.

Lazarette: Accessed via the cockpit hatch, provides ample storage space for fenders, cleaning supplies, fishing gear, Scuba tanks, dive compressor and dive gear.  The 700 gallons per day water maker and steering gear are also located within.

Foredeck: The foredeck on the Krogen 44AE is high off the water making for a dry comfortable ride and has a Maxwell 2500 hydraulic windlass with chain rode to a Manson Supreme 80 lb. anchor and a Manson Boss 40 lb. anchor with chain and 300 feet of double braid rode.  Chain locker access is through the painted Freeman hatch on deck. Shore power and dock water connections are installed on the foredeck and in the cockpit.

Boat Deck: Proceeding aft from the port side brings you up to the boat deck and flybridge.  The boat deck has a mast and boom for launching and retrieving the tender via two Warn electric hoists. The dinghy is a Highfield aluminum bottom (center console), with 40 HP Yamaha (2017) and has been actively used.   With the tender launched, the boat deck provides a large outdoor deck space. Additionally, there are two bicycle mounts and matching canvas covers.

Flybridge: Equipped with Stidd helm chair forward, seating to starboard, L-shaped settee to port, two Simrad MFD, electronics and stabilizer and anchor controls on the dash, all under the protection of a folding Bimini top. Whether docking, anchoring, or operating the vessel inshore on beautiful days, the flybridge offers commanding views and control that adds to the joy cruising.
