#2014 captiva reviews portable
In combination with the portable loo, which is again smartly concealed within a hinged, cushion-topped box, it all makes for a very serviceable cabin indeed. Of course, on the face of it, this seems quite similar to the static infill systems on most small V-berths, but here, the folding mechanism means the seat base is positioned lower down, generating much more head height for seated occupants. At the aft end of the cabin, a pair of inward facing seats employ backrests that can be folded down to generate extra length in the double berth. Down below, the design team’s hard work continues. With sunken inward-facing seats and neatly concealed loo the designers have done well in the cabin. However, this boat’s really outstanding party trick centres around the seating. On the port side of the sun lounger, there is another similarly concealed cushion section that hides an integrated bin system.

Known as the ICE System, it means you can access cold drinks without having to heave the box free of its housing or unnecessarily expose its contents to the warm air. For instance, the centre of the bench features a rectangular panel that lifts out to reveal a sliding hatch on top of the cooler. If you lift the hinged starboard section of the sunpad, a moulded walkway (common throughout the Captiva line) takes you from the swim platform into the main body of the cockpit itself and again, there is far more ingenuity on show than the fairly conventional ‘bolster-seat-and-aft-bench’ layout suggests. Starting aft, the sun pad over the engine hatch features a fold-up backrest to create an adjustable, aft-facing bench, ideal for watching a skier or for reclining in comfort without feeling constrained by the boat’s internal dimensions. With its fold-down jump seats and infill cushions, the cockpit is much more versatile than it looks.
