Engine & Electrics

Vessel is powered by an economical and reliable, inboard Vetus MZD5A. This 13hp unit was installed new in 2004. The propulsion is a Volvo SD100 saildrive leg with 2-bladed folding propeller to minimise drag when sailing. There is a spare saildrive unit and a spare 3 bladed fixed propeller. The leg is fitted with a rope cutter to limit possibilities of being fouled.

Single lever engine control in cockpit with forward and reverse function. Engine start panel with visual and audible alarms for oil pressure, water temperature and charging. Engine has completed 420 hrs to date of reliable service. The engine was serviced in 2020 but has done little since due to lockdown.

Accommodation

Accommodation and layout

The saloon is accessed from the cockpit via a set of steps built into the engine

difference to your overall sailing enjoyment not to spend your time below decks crouched. The yacht is cleverly compartmented with clearly identified areas. The chart table is huge with large navigation area and what can be described as a double seat. Here you will find the VHF radio, Garmin chart plotter, 12V switch panel and chart reading light. There is a quarter/pilot berth here that can be utilised as the 6th berth. This is currently used for storing the comfortable cockpit cushions.

Opposite the chart table on the port side is the galley. There is a spirit stove with 2-burner hob and a microwave oven below. The original gas oven was removed but the pipework and gas locker remains. Should the next owner decide to install a gas oven then this would be a simple task.separate grill. Stainless steel sink unit with foot pumped fresh water, drainer and top loading larder and icebox. Great storage for plates and crockery.

The saloon features a settee/berth to starboard. Opposite is the larger U-shaped seating area which with the lowering of the saloon table makes a sizeable double berth. The table slides up and down the king post and locks in place at the desired height at the time. Should only single occupancy be required on either berth there is provision for the fitting of lee cloths. The upholstery in the saloon is comfortable and covered in durable, easy clean fabrics. The headlinings are in super condition and covered in white vinyl which increases the brightness in the saloon.

The heads is situated beyond the forward bulkhead and features a Jabsco manual flush toilet. This was installed new in 2010 with new sanitary hoses and the latest "Twist n Lock" handle. Stainless steel sink with pumped fresh water. Opposite the heads is a large

hanging space for foul weather gear. This is where the cockpit table is stored in ite protective canvas bag.

In the bow is the forepeak double berth with forward shelf and privacy door.

Overall the condition below decks is good and feels homely. This will be a pleasant place to while away the evenings in port or on passage between watches.
