Good morning
I saw a picture of the quarterberth which shows a 'post' behind the companionway stairs. Here is a picture of it-

Anyone know what it is?

That's where you put the handle for the keel winch. That model is a swing keel.

Hi Jay,

It looks like that is the tube that houses the swing keel cable, not a post.

Yep, That post/tube does not exist on your fixed keel model.

The tube is a piece of PVC that protects the radiator hose from damage. Fixed keel models don't have it.
That boat looks way too clean! LOL
