* Settee berths in salon
* Settee berth in dinette
Forward cabins can be a big issue. One might be required for a couple, or perhaps two singles. So it should have a wide lower berth and an upper bunk. The upper bunk could fold-down to convert the lower berth into a settee.
Another cabin could be an office (or what have you). But it is more likely you would use the pilothouse as an office. Surrounded by large windows it would be a cheerier place to work. Alternatively, with a portable computer device and wireless (wifi) network, you could work in the salon or dinette, or the aft cockpit on a nice day.
Another arrangement would be to combine the forward cabins into a roomier stateroom for a second couple.
== Heads ==
Heads also have lifestyle considerations. On a smaller trawler, where space is at a premium, you might have one or two heads with showers. On a trawler with an engine room amidships, you would want a head ensuite with the aft master stateroom, and another [[ForwardHeadDesign|head forward]] in the main accommodation. If size and layout permits, a day head above decks is handy, especially if you are entertaining a gang.
