Overview - Deck and
Topsides
What
you can see in this picture (barely! - click for larger one) are
2 blue covered deck fills for the freshwater tanks (1 each) on either
side of the yellow AC inlet plug. Barely visible, aft and outboard
of each of those (on the flat surface), are the two (red) deck fills
for each of the diesel tanks. Each of the hulls has molded in swim
steps. The
small hatches on either side of the main cabin bulkhead are opening
ports into each of the aft berths (one of two hatches in each berth).
The
mainsheet traveller crosses the cockpit at the top edge of the aft
seats. This is "doublewide" at the marina. The large winshield
at the front of the hard dodger is right at the entrance to the
saloon. This is what is looked through while at the helm. The lower
winshield on the foredeck is the panoramic window in the master
stateroom. I can't beleive there is only eighteen inches below that
black stripe! A roller furling 150% genoa is in the standard sail
plan. The mast has twin spreaders. |

Here
is a view the port side of the deck. There are two Lewmar
ST40 main winches port and starboard. The genoa track is along
cabintop inboard of the winches. Stainless steel handholds
on the hard dodger (right edge of picture) and along cabintop
(the molded indentations, parallel to genoa track). The sidedecks
are narrow, but I kind of like that. You are always "touching"
the inboard cabin and the lifelines at the same time. I am
willing to trade this for interior volume anyway.
