Engine and Engine Room
Engine Volvo Penta D2-75, 55 kW/75 HP 4 cylinder 2.2 Litres
cylinder volume. Mounted with four rubber feet on strong
foundations to avoid vibration and noise. Hydraulic transmission.
3 bladed fixed propeller. Water-cooled rubber exhaust
pipe. Freshwater cooled engine. The hot freshwater
circuit is led into a 40 L / 11 US gallon well insulated
hot water tank. Due to the good insulation water remains
hot for many hours after the engine has been run. The
engine is served by a separate 12 V battery. There is
a large filter for cooling water. The bilge pump has been
installed in a position where it can be cleaned even in
extremely bad weather conditions. There is space for a
Diesel generator.
Diesel
Approximately 395 Litres / 104 US gallon in stainless
steel tank, below the floor in saloon with fuel gauge.
The tank is filled through deck inlet. Between tank and
engine there is a further large water and coarse filter
in addition to the one on the engine. The cruising range
in calm waters is approximately 710 nautical miles.
Water
Water capacity is approximately 650 litres / 172 US gallon
in two tanks, the main tank under the floor holding appx
420 litres / 111 US gallon and the extra tank under the
settee 230 litres / 61 US gallon. The upper tank is piped
to lower tank and controlled by a stop valve. There is
a water gauge for the main tank. The water goes to a pump
and then on to a 2 litres pressure equalising tank, and
from there via a manifold is distributed to a 40 Litres
/ 11 US gallon hot water calorifier (heated by 230 V and
the engine´s cooling water) and the cold water system.
As soon as a water tap is turned on the water which is
under pressure in the pipes starts to flow. As soon as
the pressure reduces the electric pump begins to work
and will continue until the pressure is built up again
after closing tap. Filling of water tanks is
through deck inlet. Carbonfilter. There are three bilge
pumps; one manual, one electric and one high capacity
electric emergency bilge pump that is floodable.
Electricity
Two separate circuits, one with 12 Volt and 62 Ah battery

important positions. There are attractive adjustable
halogen lights above berths and settee. Electric sockets
at inner chart table and in the cockpit. Electric panel
with circuit breakers at inner chart table. There

for additional outlets. A wiring diagram is supplied with
each boat.
Heating
Webasto Airtop 5000 Diesel, 5 kW, with outlets in saloon,
forward cabin, toilet compartments and aft cabin. As far
as possible double heater hoses are used in each other
for insulation purpose. Also the hull is well insulated
and therefore heating and consequently electric consumption
will be minimal. The heating exhaust flue is led outside
through the blue decorative stripe. The heating is installed
in the engine room and is easily accessible for servicing.
All outlets, except in the saloon, can be regulated separately.
Refrigeration
A water cooled Isotherm SP system with Danfoss compressor
unit for refrigeration is fitted for the icebox, extremely
economical to run. Operated from a 12 Volt supply and
providing batteries are in good condition, refrigeration
should last 5-6 days without recharging being necessary.

4 Dorade vents saloon and aft cabin, automatic Electrolux
ventilator for the forward heads compartment. Separate
electric engine room ventilation.

is progressive combines safety and fine feel in the best
possible way. Illuminated compass, single engine control
lever and leather covered steering wheel.
Safety and General
All outside skin fittings are speedily and securely sealed
by using ball-valves with Delrin-sealer. Double hose clips
are used under water. For the toilet special non-diffusing
hoses are used. All electric cables are, where possible,
laid in special tubes and where this is not possible,
cables are safely loomed away from the hull. There are
large limber holes so that any water can easily drain
to the bilge. The bilge is accessible by a removable floor
panel without having to remove the steps. Inspection hatches
