    Owner Comments


    The steering system is a large push pull cable. I had the boat inspected by the original builder when I bought it and he said that it is the best/most heavy duty system they installed.

    The head was rebuilt. New valve train. Rebuilt injection pump. New injectors. New fuel pump. New raw water pump. New coolant pump. New bowman heat exchanger. New oil cooler. New exhaust elbow. Oil pressure is good and no exhaust leaks.

    The fuel tanks are baffled. They have an access port. But it’s only 1.5”. For cleaning with a filter/hose/pump system. You can also clean your own fuel with an in line transfer pump.

    There’s no anemometer. But there’s a wind indicator on top of the mast. 

    Single Head 

    It has a dripless shaft seal

    Lofrans tigres windlass. 200’ 5/16 chain

    Batteries are in the engine room in a fiberglass box.
