Transom
1. One swim ladder and a shower with pressurized (hot and cold) water on either the port or starboard
transom.
2. A swim platform between the transoms, it will primarily be used for stowing the dinghy. Your standard
aluminum mesh at cockpit level is appropriate.
3. I intend the dinghy to be a 12ft Aquapro www.aquaprousa.com
powered by a Yanmar 27 hp outboard
diesel www.yanmar.nl/products/outboard.htm
(I do not want any gasoline or propane on board). I
estimate this combination weighs about 350lbs.
4. Instead of davits I want to use a “boom-derrick” system like that used by Voyage. If feasible I will want
the ability to swing the boom to either port or starboard to lower and raise the dinghy from the side
when a stern anchor is deployed.
Deck Equipment
1. Fresh water deck wash system.
2. Non-slip paint and life lines on underside of wingdeck (maybe).
3. Sunbrella type “tent/awning” to fit over boom, covering the cabin and secured on the port and starboard
stanchions or cleats. This should extend forward enough to at least shade the forward windows, it will
not be used while underway.
4. With port lights in the salon’s forward windows, see Salon section, the hatches around the mast will not
be needed. I want steps around the mast leading up to the Salon cabin top see Exhibit 4 (Leopard 47)
for an example.
5. There cannot be too many handholds. Need at least one on both the port and starboard side of the cabin
top for use when going forward. See Exhibit 13 (Voyage 580)
6. I will rely on Alwoplast to recommend most equipment taking into consideration my objectives as
summarized in the Background section above.
