The Perkins diesel engine is a reliable workhorse and has only 2082 hours. Cruising at 7-10 kts she burns under 2 gallons per hour at 2000 rpms. The fresh and raw water pumps are new in 2014. The injectors and injector pump along with the 3 Racors, starter and heat changers have been rebuilt or reconditioned. The alternator in new 2014
The Next-Gen 5.5 KW generator was installed new in 2014 and has only 134 hours and burns only ¼ to 1/3 gph. There is very little need to use the generator at anchor however, since the four (4) 130 watt solar panels, along with the Outback charger; inverter and controller provide most of your power needs.
The exterior has new Awlgrip on the hull and cabin in 2014/15. New Trinidad SR60 bottom paint was applied 5/15. New deck paint was applied 2/15.
The stateroom has been completely redone and includes new 9” memory foam mattresses. All lighting is LED.
