Below the waterline, a double-coat Trinidad bottom paint and Zinmar zincs were renewed in 2023.

Electrical and utility systems

Designed to US specifications, the yacht’s electrical distribution is anchored by two 60 Hz Kohler generators equipped with fuel filters and water sensors, ensuring dependable onboard power. A Hubbell 25 kW Iso-Boost automatic-start transformer—professionally installed—works in concert with a Glendinning 100A shore-cord retractor for seamless shore-power management. Three Mastervolt battery chargers service a fully renewed battery suite—house, engine, and generator banks—including four engine-start batteries, while comprehensive battery isolation, emergency parallel connections, and generator battery paralleling deliver robust redundancy. Dedicated 120V/60 Hz inverters support refrigeration and hotel services.

Electrical oversight is centered on full main and engine panels with breakers, voltage and current monitoring, and shore-power ground-fault protection, complemented by GFCI receptacles in the heads, galley, and engine room. The vessel benefits from central bonding and anode protection, 110/120V outlets throughout, and a 12V salon outlet.

Fuel management is refined with helm fuel-level monitoring, an engine-room sight tube, a manual fuel discharge pump, and Racor generator filtration. Freshwater systems include a tank with pressure system and level monitoring, a regulated shore-water connection, a water heater, and a watermaker for extended autonomy. Waste systems comprise black- and gray-water tanks with discharge pumps, level sensors, bypass valves, and dockside pump-out connections.

Safety and service utilities are equally comprehensive, featuring automatic and manual compartment bilge pumps with high-level sensors, centralized emergency suction, and an emergency engine-driven bilge discharge. Seawater strainers and service pumps supply the chain wash, fire hydrant, and auxiliary discharge systems.
