The hull form is sleek and sophisticated, the eyebrows above the ports denote competence and self-worth, and some of the accessories below deck are fine leather.

It's a perfect platform for a family who wants to cruise along the coast and explore New England or the Mid-Atlantic, and it's perfectly capable of charging around a racecourse where, competently crewed, it can stay in step with the division leaders.Sailmagazine.com August 2017SPECIFICATIONS CONSTRUCTIONRCD Status: It is our understanding that the yacht conforms with the essential safety requirements of Directive 94/25EC (Recreational Craft Directive) and is categorised A -- "Ocean".Hull, Deck & Superstructure Construction: Monolithic hull design in polyester Monolithic structural counter moulding laminated and bonded to the hull Injection moulded deck (Sandwich / Glass fibre / Balsa wood / Synthetic resin) All deck and work access area surfaces teak All the coach roof is non-skid Monolithic deck counter moulding cemented to deck Deck hull join boarded and screwed, with 1 solid wood toerail Stern deck laminated White gelcoat topsides, deck and superstructure finish Teak in cockpitKeel & Rudder: Shallow draught keel - straight - Lead The keel is fixed to the boat by a system of screws and stainless steel veneer Underhung balanced rudder in fibreglass sandwich and polyurethane foam Injection moulded rudder stock Self-aligning rocker bearingsMACHINERYEngine & gearbox: Yanmar 4JH4-TE 75hp diesel engine Sail Drive gearbox Engine control - Key ignition - Control panel in cockpit starboard Fresh water engine cooling via raw water intake and heat exchanger Soundproof engine room Fuel/water separators Extraction fanMaintenance & Performance: Engine hours: approximately 2,500 hours since new Last date of engine service: June 2023 Sail drive gearbox replaced in 2023Propulsion & Steering: 3-bladed Gori folding propeller Twin Aluminium leather covered Steering wheels Chain and metal cable steering transmission Direct link transmission for direct and exact feel Emergency tiller Retractable Max Power compact bow thrusterELECTRICAL SYSTEMSVoltage systems: 12vDC primary domestic system with 220v AC via generator, inverter or shorepowerBattery Banks: 1x 110Ah AGM 12v engine start battery 1x Genset start battery - 2023 1x separated Bowthruster battery - 2023 4x 140Ah 12vDC AGM service batteries joined in parallel to supply 5600Ah @ 12vDCGenerator: Fisher Panda 8000i 6,4KW / 8,0KVA 230V 50Hz diesel generator Generator hours: approx. 30 as of Autumn 2023 Generator serviced routinelyInverter and charger: Mastervolt Combimaster 12V/2000VA-60A Inverter/Charger - 2023Shorepower: 220vAC shore power system connector Ring-main with 220vAC sockets throughout yacht 220vAC shore power supply protected with differential breaker and distribution system.Alternator: 80 Amp engine mounted alternator charging service batteriesOther Electrical: 230v shore power with isolator, circuit breaker, shore power cable and stainless steel inlet Electrical control panel with thermal breakers. 12v sockets, voltmeter, ampere meter and battery test at DC panel.PLUMBING & GAS SYSTEMSFresh Water: 12vDC pressure system pump for fresh water supply Hot water supplied via engine cooling with calorifier or via 220vAC immersion heater element from shore power in well-insulated 40 litre 220vAC hot water tank Hot & cold pressurised water to galley, heads, shower in cockpitWatermaker: 12V/220V Zen Schenker 100 liters/hour WatermakerBilge Pumps: Bilge pump override switch at AC/DC panel 2 x 12vDC electric bilge pump 1 x Manual bilge pump in cockpitBlack & Grey Water: The forward toilet discharge directly to the sea or into a black water tanks (empty and cleaned), whose outboard discharge works through an electric macerator pump.TANKAGEFuel: The fuel tanks are made in PVC Total fuel capacity approx. 237 litres 1x roto-moulded plastic fuel tank under starboard aft berth Filling of fuel tanks is through deck inlets.
