The boat is fitted-out for extended cruising and self-sufficiency.



It has 1.5kW of solar and 1000Ah of lithium batteries for the house bank and water maker.

We typically do all cooking on the electric stove and oven, but the gas is still installed for emergencies (or big dinners).



Every system on the boat was attended to in some way during the refit. Some items were simply purchased new, like the tender and outboard engine which were splashed Jan 2020, to refurbishing systems like the hot water system that needed a new element, thermostat, and wiring loom.

We will be selling the boat with all the spares, tools, and some sporting equipment such as the standup paddleboard and fishing gear.



We have lots of pics and details of works done on our boat page on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ToSeaWithNewEyes



The layout posted here is not the exact layout of our boat, but pretty close.

All pictures here are taken in the last month (hence why the boat is a bit of a mess... we are liveaboards).
