Three S.S. U-bolts are fitted in the cockpit for
marine safety harness attachment, and webbing jackstay (safety lines) run up each side deck from right aft to the bows. Sail Handling
Marine equipment LEWMAR equipment is standard. ( Harken equipment is optional) Both the self-tacking jib and optional genoa are set on manual control Furlex headsail roller reefing as standard. (Electric control is available as an option) These control lines come back to an
electrical winch. The self-tacking Solent jib runs on a curved Lewmar track set on an integral GRP moulding. This jib sheet is led via Lewmar
boat blocks to the cockpit control clutches. The reefing control lines are run aft via turning blocks to the electric control
winch supplier at the helm position. Genoa sheets are led to a Lewmar Ocean 3 genoa sheet track with Lewmar Ocean
genoa cars, port and starboard. They are then led via Lewmar Ocean turning footblocks to the primary electric winch. As standard the main sheet is controlled by a Lewmar mainsheet car system, leading to an electric winch on the aft bridge deck. As an option the mainsheet can alternatively be led forward along the boom, returning to the helm position. The mainsheet traveller control lines are controlled to the central Lewmar winch on the main aft cross beam via jammers. Anchoring A Lewmar vertical
power windlass with chain and
rope for boat gypsies is positioned in the central pod, and the chain fall leads directly into the self-draining
mount well, which is also accessible from on deck. The
marine windlass has a two-way control switch forward. An option is to have a remote control in the cockpit. Great attention to detail has been given to the design of the anchor stowage and rollers, since easy anchoring is so important to shorthanded, long-
term cruisers. There is a second roller on the forward crossbeam. The anchor system incorporates two large diameter delrin rollers for easy chain flow, and to allow self launching of the anchor. An anchor bridle is fitted as standard. An oversize 40kg (88 lbs) Delta anchor self stows in the stemhead fitting, and this comes with 60 m of 10 mm calibrated galvanised chain fitted. The bitter end is securely fastened high in the anchor well. The stern is also fitted with a stainless steel
support roller for mooring bows-to. 4.INTERIORInterior Layout Options There are several interior layouts available, with a number of variations possible within those. The main difference in the layouts is in the Owner’s cabin versions. “A” Three Cabin layout with Owner's Stateroom forward This owner’s stateroom is extraordinarily light, airy and spacious. It utilises the full width of the
sailboat boat and is nearly 25 feet (7.7m) wide. The king size double berth is 6' 8" long by 6’6” wide (2.1 m x 2 m). The high quality split mattress is set on special battens for maximum comfort and to allow it to "breathe". On each side of the bed is a bedside table. Outboard April 2008 Page 8 >
