Whats Up Doc Stats and equipment

This information is from memory and accurate to the best of my memory. I am sure there is some difference with some numbers.

She weights 17,000 bare 19,500 with water fuel and gear
47' by 23' 23" draft hulls with 31" rudders. 5' dagger boards. clearance is 71'. Hull length to width is 12:1

SAILS
Main is 850 sq ft Hood Vectran new in 2006. Did not sail in 2007or 2009.  Jib is 350 Hood Vectran new in 2006 back up jib 350 sq ft new 2001 laminated North sails poor condition, 150 sq ft 1994 New Zealand sail fair condition, 80 sq ft 1994 new Zealand sail good condition. All jibs are hank on. The 80 sq ft is designed for the cutter stay that I removed but can be used on te forstay and the cutter stay can be easily replaced. Two asymmetrical spinnakers one light weight and one heavier. One was ripped in 2008 and repaired. Now I use a sock. Furling screecher for heavier winds 750 sq ft. Hood Vectran.

STEERING

One padded stainless wheel with cables to each rudder post
Rudders used to be carbon with carbon shaft but both were broken off at different times. Now they are much heavier steel shafts and glass rudders. This has worsened her pointing to 48 to 50 degrees. Each has a small leak into the stern storage lockers.
SLEEPING
The births are a double bed in each stern, a long single birth in each midship and a wide/ extra long single birth large enough for a 6'10"adult and child in each bow. This forward birth can be accessed from the head or the deck. The settee is very comfortable and can sleep two adults or three children.  There is a hammock and chair hammock. The front tramps are great to sleep on if the bugs are away. I have many blankets and pillows but only a few sheets. and pillow cases.
DRIVE/POWER SYSTEM
Engines are 12.5 Thoosa ( Finland) electric motors. There is a 200 amp 48 volt battery power source that gives 30-40 minutes of motoring. Top speed in flat water is 8-9 knots but that is for short times only as there is a tendency to over heat the electric controls at that level (100 amps each side) I cruise at 35 amps each side which gives me about 5 knots in flat water no wind. Props are one MAX feathering prop with variable pitch set at 16 degrees. This will reverse and generate power but it will slow the boat down 4 knots and is pretty noisy. I never use it. Boat speed has to be 10 knots to make power. I have one Max Prop on board for the stbd side but prefer the stainless folding two blade prop. I have another stainless prop on board.

I have a NexGen 8.5 KW diesel generator with two inverters converting the AC output to 48volt. these will also make AC from the 48 V bank for the boat AC plugs. I motor cruise with the generator running. The diesel fuel is 200L and it burns 1L/per hour at cruising speed. So she has about a 900 miles range. It has two in line fuel pumps. Only one is needed but the second prevents stalling. Offshore I will carry another 100 liters in plastic cans.
The 700 amp Rolls 12 v house system is charged by 4 solar panels that produce 30 amps an hour I think. I can charge from the generator also but don't like to as it strains the alternator belt.

NAVIGATION
I try to keep paper charts of all ocations sailed. I have a sextant, boat compass, and two handheld compass and 2 handheld wind guages. Two sets of charting instruments. One set of compass binoculars. One monocular night scope. Two DC flood lights and one battery flood SOS light.

2011 garmin chart plotter and integrated radar. The AIS and VHF are also integrated.

There is an interphase forward looking sonar ( 2008).
The electric instruments are Comnav installed new in 2005. It is not the NEMA 2000. It is the version before that. It has a compass on the mast to keep the apparent wind angle correct when the mast is rotated. It has the ability to tell true wind speed and direction but none of this stuff seems to work correctly. It does give wind speed. It also has a wind guage, adn driection sensor water depth, speed and temp. The Comnav autopilot has a fluxgagte compass. it works but the directional control does not seem to be correct so I manually adjust the course based on boat compass or GPS. Obviously the installer from Bangor, who is now out of business, did not do a good job with the Comnav install. Someday this will be fixed.
There is an old SSb but only works on a few chanels.

There is a globalstar satelite phone with data download capability.

There is one sextant.

 Multiple flashlights adn strobe and laser lights.

Heads
The head on the port side has a holding tank the stbd side does not.

LEAKS- 18 ports 10 hatches  no more as of 2011 not one drop into the boat!! except the sail lockers.

7 new lexan ports in 2011 replacing the prots that leaked. the other ports are original and have not leaked the only hatches that leak are the ones to the sail lockers. McDougals did a great job with this. The two bow spaces and bow sail lockers take on water. It is hard to figure out from where.  They now have their own hand high volume bilge pump. I think the attachment of the bow cross beam to the decks is where the leak is. In heavy seas they need pumping every few days. They may go a season without pumping.

 DINGHY
The dinghy is a Portabote 75 lbs 10'. Three wide seats. It folds and stores on the deck very well. It planes with the
2.5 hp 4 stroke mercury with only me ( 195lbs) in the boat. There is a solar powered bilge pump. Lots of volume in this boat! I have had two dinghies before ( zodiac hard bottom too small and same weight, Walker Bay too heavy and slow). This one is the best. Dinghy has tool box and grapple anchor two floating oars with two spares on the boat. Flashlight and red/green bow light.

There is a two person 35# inflatable kayak with good storage- not a Tahiti surf thing-  two kayak paddles three foot pumps.

COMMUNICATION
an air horn and a bell. and two handheld horns. three flood lights including one SOS light.

a new Globalstar 1700 satellite phone that does email. It costs $1.50 a minute. I have a SPOTT GPS that sends "help" and "I am Ok" and "I have arrived" messages. I have an SSB that used to do weather fax. I have never used it and have no license. I have two handheld VHF waterproof radios. The boat radio is old and the mast antenna is working but spotty. I hope to install an AIS soon. I have three fanny packs with sighting mirrors whistle and stobe light one has a laser beacon. I have a cell phone booster for a Sprint and for an Iphone. There are three high powered spotlights. 1 battery two 12 V.

New ( 2011) AIS  transceiver and VHF for AIS. AIS also connects to a new 2011 garmen chart ploter and interfaced radar.

I have a Security system that transmits the speed direction and ositin to a web site. It also will notify my cell when the engine is turned on or there is water in the bilge.
There is also an ImmarsatD on board that communicates position direction and speed to a web site. A 2011 AM/FM CD changer with speakers provides a good sound. The radio is XM compatible.

SAFETY
7 fire extinguishers, 5 old but still ok and 2 new. A variety of kinds of extinguisheres.  A flare gun and 24 flares.

 There is a secruity alarm with strain deck sensors and motion detectors. The masst and deck lights flash and the horn sounds a loud warble if the alarm is set off.

Two self inflating life vests and 3 manual inflating vests with three harness straps. 10 old fashion vests.  One binocular, one night time monocular, two handheld compasses, a great medical bag able to do an appendectomy, treat allergic, septic, bleeding or cardiac shock. I have three GSP handhelds one with charts for eastern US and NW Caribbean. One is a SPOT and you/family members can go to the web page and see the position of the boat. I have three personal epribs.

A liferaft produced in 2005 sold new to me in 2010 is aboard. It is a 6 person Viking life raft. Certified Sept 2010 for 3 years. This plus a two person inflatable kayak and the dinghy makes for good survival esp since the three EPRIBS should result in rescue in less than 12 hours.

Sometimes I have skeet thrower and pigeons aboard for target practice with a 12G with slugs and buckshot. Sometimes a 9MM pistol and mace. In Canada I do not have any of this.
WATER FOOD SYSTEM no hot water except by stove

Two new 2010 Katadyn survivor 35 hand pump watermaker. Each makes fresh water from sea water at 1 gal/hr. The water system has a charcoal filter as well as two Britta pitcher filters. I have 200 liters in the tanks. and another 100 L in cans.

The stove is propane 2 burner and oven. The stern has a force ten grill. I have 3 propane tanks. Two are the new fiberglass see through.

I have what used to be a freon cooled fridge that is now a very good icebox and faraday box. On one trip we put 5 blocks of ice in it and had food for 4 guys for 4 days. The ice lasted all 4 days. I can make ice in one Engle small electric fridge that makes ice but I rarely run it that cold. One Coleman DC electric cooler. I have 50 pounds of dry goods dry milk. powdered eggs,  rice, cereal, popcorn, vitamens, pasta. But we mostly live off fresh food from the 3 coolers and fish if we catch them.. I usually drag a line which will catch tuna and mahi. Too fast for other fish.

ANCHORS
I have three anchors a 55# CQR 35# XYZ ( new 2010) and 30# danforth. The XYZ is the main anchor and by far the best setting and holding anchor. I have a 175' 5/8" chain. The windlass lasted 19 years and an identical one is installed in 9/2010. The other rode is 100 ft nylon braid. There is a 23' Paratech sea anchor with 300 feet of nylon braid rode- new in 2011. There is a 20# three line swivel storm shackle. meaning you can attach three anchors and three points to the boat.
TOOLS
I have a heat gun, Lithium 18V cordless drill, Black and Decker mouse sander, large polisher for electric tools. I have a large stainless metric and English socket wrench set various vice grips monkey wrenches, pliers hammers and speciality tools. lots of extra stuff like belts shackles, lines. oil, grease.

Fishing     
We will often drag one or two lines and will catch Mahi Mahi or Tuna as they are the only fish to keep up. I have  reels and poles with lots of fake bait. I have a down rigger if we want to go slow and go deep ( 200 feet). My forward sonar also serves as a fish finder.
Stuff
Lots of gear like courtasy flags, manula pumps, bolts  snap shackles regular schackles. lots of extra lines. Bosens chair mast climber. wire cutters large monkey wrenches and vice grips. Sodering gear,  fids, sewing equipment, fuses, nuts and bolts, 2 radar reflectors,  radar detector, distilled water specific gravity device, expensive volt meter Boogie boards, short John long john, swim shirts, three sets of fowl weather gear, swim shoes  gloves and helmut, sets of fins and googles. spear gun.  Paint cans for all paints used, motor oil, fuel primer.      Dishes silverware cooking utensils for 6. Food storage containers. pressure cooker, good pots and fry pans.
Settee
There are two tables that serve as nav stations and when openned and swung togehter makes for a table for 8. there is a fold out table in the cockpit that seats 5. The interior has 9 rugs. the back deck and cockpit has wall to wall rubber floor mats as do the heads. Fans and reading lights are in many locations.
