General

Hull and deck construction

• core of 25mm balsa wood with 2mm mahogany on either side, wrapped with fiberglass with Kevlar in it and Sicomin SR 8500 epoxy, outside and inside.
• The deck has a core of 15mm Airex foam with 2x400 grams of Carbon on both sides.

Keel construction

The boat and all structures were designed and calculated by Phil Morrison. This also applies to the construction for the keel.

• full carbon keel fin that is inserted into a pocket in the lead bulb and fixed with three bolts (transverse). The pocket is then filled with epoxy and sealed.
• the keel fin is completely laminated, forward, aft and to both sides.

Rigging

• Carbon mast with 2 sets of spreaders, length mast 16 meter
• New forestay; 15mm AT Aramid: Anti Torsion Aramid ( Aramid braided covers, impregnated with resin).
• New cutter stay (trinquette) is mounted; 7,5mm SC PBO: Soft Covered (black braided cover)
• New standing rigging ROD by Hall Spars 2022
  
  

Furlers

• Facnor genoa furler is overhauled and all (ball)bearings are replaced.
• The Code Zero and the Code Five are flown from a new installed Karver Furler on one of two tacklines (middle/front) on the bowsprit.
• The LARGE RACING KFR3.0 is a furler that can withstand a workload of 3 T. It is intended for sailboats to 45 feet. The LARGE KFR3.0 is a Karver furler of 3rd generation. It is fitted as standard with a carbon / Kevlar® continuous line wheel, a carbon housing, a 3: 1 friction sheave fitted with a captive fast pin, the drum remote locking system and a swivel. Sailing singlehanded one must be able to rely on the proper functioning of furling headsails in the heaviest conditions.

Accommodations

• Comfortable bunks with mattress on starboard and port side. Each bunk has its own
  storage bag with 8 compartments. In each bunk a Raymarine SmartPilot S3G AST Course Computer is installed; one active and one spare. In the port bunk is also the Iridium GO installed and connected to an external Iridium antenna at the antenna pole. Below each bunk is space for storage.
• The floor with Painted antisleep
• The area before the mast Repainted 2022
• Infront of the mast are two pipe cots which are used for stowing sails and spare
  ropes and sheets.

Plumbing/Waterballast

  minutes.

Deck and Cockpit

Deckhardware

• Spinlock XTS stoppers, mostly renewed 2021-2023

Winches

Andersen winches.
All winches are serviced and parts replaced where necessary. Spare Andersen service packages per winch type are on board.

Electrics

• Entire battery system was changed in 2022 with Mastervolt Li-Ion. All equipment operates on 12 volts except for the water pump which operates on 24 volts. 
• Shore power to charge all batteries 12 and 24 volts
• 3 solar panels to charge the 12 voltsbatteries 
• 150 Ampere Mastervolt alternator to charge batteries in case the Watt & Sea hydrogen is not sufficient charging due to a lack of boat speed (wind). Owner: It will take 20 to 40 minutes to charge the batteries.
• Watt&Sea hydro generator. Owner: At a boat speed of 7 knots the generates enough amperes to keep up with power consumption of the autopilot and the laptop, being the heaviest users, and all other equipment. The hydrogen is mounted on a rail and can be slid from starboard to port and vice versa. Carbon racing version with hydraulic adjustment of the propeller blades pitch. If batteries are full or to manage the load in amperes at high boat speeds, the pitch of the propeller blades is adjusted hydraulically
• Batteries: Two 12 Volt Lithium batteries, One 12 Volt start battery, One 24 Volt Lithium battery (all batteries are from spring 2022)

Engine

The Ruggerini M150 (14hp) is completely overhauled. New piston rings, cylinder liners honed, new valve seats, new valves, new connecting rod bearings, new main bearings, head flattened, new injectors, fuel pump overhauled and adjusted.

Owner: The engine runs like a charm, consumes no oil and has its full power back.
