Another style that seems fairly common is the Double Cabin. This is the trawler where there is usually a v-bert at the bow, and a full private cabin at the stern. The aft cabin usually also includes its own head.

This is my preferred layout, giving 3 distinct areas on the boat, both cabins and the galley/main salon area. The main salon and galley is often combined, but not always, sometimes the galley is forward below. I do like this last layout as it gives plenty of living space to lounge and entertain, but it seems very rare to find, the only models I have come across like these are the Senator 32 and 35. The 32 is definitely smallish

This layout has sidedeck spacious enough to safely walk around. One or two steps gets on the trunk cabin and three more steps to the flybridge. In passing, a flybridge is almost a must requirement in my opinion as it gives you such a high and fantastic view of the water in front and around.
