Accommodation

Looking aft in the saloon you can see the dining area on the starboard side with comfortable seating for six persons, with the galley area on the port side. The saloon table can be modified to create an extra two berths for those weekend guests!

The saloon is spacious allowing a headroom 6' 6" in a beam of 12' 4".  Good storage is available behind each berth and access to the fuel tanks (separately controlled) is under each of the lower berths.

The berths are of 100mm foam and covered in Sunbrella for easy maintenance.  Four berths are available in the saloon area, two on each side, or the berths can be folded down for comfortable seating. All saloon berths have leeboards for passage making. Ample storage is available for each berth.

The dining area provides comfortable seating for six persons with storage under the forward and starboard seats. Under the aft seat are situated the domestic batteries (4x105 amp hour) and behind the aft seat are the power controls (battery charger, autopilot computer, instrument computer, shore power breakers etc.) and underneath are the engine batteries (2x85 amp hour). The table can rotate on the single support. A separate board can be used to covert the saloon area into a double sea berth. The second fresh water tank is located under the dinette/galley floor (125 litres). Space is available under both sides of the floor to modify the aft water storage to approximately 300 litres. The main bilge pump is located under the water tank and secondary pumps are in the saloon bilge and engine compartment (float switch alarmed and controlled).

The navigation table is situated forward of the mast opposite the heads. This has in my experience proved a very useful position, although not usual in modern designs. Storage under consists of a lifting table for charts etc. and drawer and cupboard space beneath.

The domestic wiring panel is hinged for easy access and has a built in 300watt inverter which is adequate for computers and mobile/camera/phone chargers. The radar and autopilot repeater are mounted here along with the SSB receiver and VHF. An instrument repeater is also mounted here mainly used for depth and windspeed whilst navigating.

The heads are situated just forward of the mast opposite the navigation area. The heads are equipped with a Jabsco "quiet flush" electric toilet with separate inflow and macerator pumps. Room is available behind and under the mirrored cupboard for a holding tank installation. Cupboard storage for wet gear is left of the mirrored cupboard. The heads are also equipped with a shower and shower tray pumping. All pumps are easily accessible for maintenance. The basin is supplied with both hot and cold water via the calorifier. The basin taps include an extending shower hose. All seacocks are easily accessible under the basin with pine plugs attached for safety.

The galley is equipped with a Techimex 2 burner cooker, with oven and grill. A 600 watt microwave is built in and runs on shore power or portable generator. A Kawasaki GA 1200 generator is currently on board. The galley also includes a 150 litre fridge which can be temperature controlled to produce ice. There is also 300 litres of cool storage plus cupboard space behind the work surface and 5 drawers under the work surface. Open tray vegetable storage is both under the cooker and above the sink. A double sink is fitted, with hot and cold water, which also has cupboard storage under.

The engine is located behind the saloon steps which makes it easily accessible for maintenace. Access is also available through removable panels in both the port and starboard cockpit lockers. A 70 amp alternator provides charging through a diode splitter to both battery banks and the alternator is managed by a Stirling controller to maximise output.

The main instrumentation is the Brookes and Gatehouse Hercules system including windspeed, wind direction and fine wind direction, boat speed, compass and depth. Depth and wind are displayed on analogue repeaters. Twin sounding sensors and twin propeller logs have been fitted. A total of seven repeaters allows monitoring in the cockpit, saloon or at the navigation table.
A JVC 1000 Radar is located on the mast and the display is at the navigation table, and can be rotated to be visible from the saloon.

The C-Tronix autopilot incorporates a hydraulic ram on the steering quadrant, is controlled from the cockpit or the chart table repeater. The Garmin 128 GPS is located above the navigation table with a cockpit repeater. The Seavoice VHF has a switchable cockpit speaker. The NASA SSB receiver uses an external "backstay" ariel.

A Navtex RTTY weather station provides the normal reports from coastal stations up to 200 miles offshore.
