Construction

The hull construction is built with wooden molds (frames) of a traditional yacht building construction. There are steam-bent ribs with a full keel, keelson and floors with intermittent stringers, transverse plywood bulkheads with a shear clamp and a framed deck and a deck house, planked over that gives the vessel it's rigidity and stiffness.

All topside, cabin flybridge, and decks are Teak

This vessel has a fly bridge/upper helm that would seem to be used more for in-close maneuvering. There is an aft cockpit that is covered with a canvas top with stainless steel bows, with a full beam width bench seat across the aft section of the cockpit. A generator is located below and beneath this bench seat, with access through panels in the back of the settee. There are side decks on both and the port and starboard sides of the cabin. These are teak planked, fastened down to beams. There is an entrance to the interior at the forward end of the cockpit as well as two (2) wing doors into the pilothouse from the side decks, and up a set of stairs on either side leads out to the foredeck. On this foredeck there is a windlass, a cabin hatch and an anchor. Safety is provided with stanchions and a cable. Mounted on the cabin house top is a signaling mast, with the anchor light/bow light attached. There are traditional side board running lights mounted on the cabin top as well.

Looking at the vessel, you will see very nice traditional displacement hull lines, a nice turn of the bilge and a graceful turn to the keel. This vessel was a motor sailer that at one time did have a mast and standing rigging.

Accommodations

in the cockpit, down a set of stairs is a cabin that has two (2) twin berths; one to port and one to starboard. Going forward on the starboard side is an enclosed marine toilet. On the port side is a dressing room that houses the electrical panels and other storage. Up a set of stairs continuing forward is the pilothouse. This pilothouse has windows providing a 360-degree view from inside. This pilothouse is finished with beautifully varnished, teak wood paneling and window frames as well as the beams and planking for the cabin tip. There are sliding windows for opening to allow in fresh air. The helm is located on the forward, port side. On the aft port and starboard sides are double seats. l In these seat bottoms is where the engine batteries are located. Beneath this pilothouse sole is the location of the engines. It is hard to imagine, when looking at the engine space and seeing the well preserved, antique engines that power this vessel, that this is the second set of engines. The controls of these engines are all pneumatic; both shifting and the throttles. Each engine has a compressor mounted on it.

Continuing forward and down a set of stairs is the galley. Outboard to starboard is the stove and sink area, and to port and outboard is storage and refrigeration. Continuing forward is a convertible dinette. The dining table folds out of the forward locker door and the lower berths provide the seating. This area becomes two (2) sets of bunk beds, one set to port and one to starboard. Continuing forward through the locker door is a large storage area, providing a hatch to the foredeck giving access to the windlass and anchor area. Forward of this bulkhead is the anchor locker, located in the forepeak. Throughout the vessel there are various hanging lockers, cupboards, drawers and storage areas.
