Interior design
Wild Sally’s interior proved to be an extraordinary challenge for Rhoades Young design studio. Tt was to be a no frils, modern yet stylish interior that could withstand the abuse the expedition members would throw at it. Specific expedition requirements didn’t make Rhoades Young life easier; a floating film and photography platform, an on board processing studio, loads of storage space for a wide range of equipment, and on top of that a place to clean and maintain all expedition equipment.
Rhoades Young has come up with a very handsome and practical design, without straying to far from the Long Tall Sally interior design and style. Aft, one guest cabin has been deleted. Two of the remaining cabins have lost their ensuite facilities. To port, the space gained has been filled by two communal heads and showers, and one cabin for equipment maintenance. Opposite, to starboard, a cabin has been inserted for safe storage of expedition equipment. Amidships the belowdecks saloon has been discarded, in exchange for which a large processing studio has been designed, sporting two large workspaces with ample computer storage, and reclining chairs for undisturbed team meetings.
The alterations do not compromise the level of style and quality implemented in Long Tall Sally’s interior design. Yet, Wild Sally has been succesfully designed into a stylish workboat where the expedition members will find they can work efficiently and comfortably.
