A solid wood mast is stepped through the foredeck to a reinforcement atop the keel, stayed by 7/16" 6x19 stainless cable fore and aft lower shrouds and aft-tending upper shrouds countering the 3/8" 1x19 stainless cable forestay. The standing rig is new. There is no running rigging at this point; that to be fitted as part of the gaff rig modification currently in progress. All in good order as visible.

A partial battened Dacron mainsail and piston hanked Dacron headsail were examined from storage bags belowdeck and found in used but serviceable condition. Both, along with the mast, are being set up as a gaff rig. This is a work in progress, currently incomplete. Requisite sheet and halyard winches are in place or are being fitted.

This motorsailer is built with a single flush deck forward and aft and with well decks in the waist, round-bottom hull single screw vessel with mild sheer, flare, and deck camber, raked stem and canoe stem. The cabin is located on center, with open aft deck, small side decks outboard of the cabin, then an open foredeck.

Bulwarks and two courses of pipe rails to 29" height enclose the fore and aft decks, with bulwarks along the side decks, each with boarding gates. The aft deck has a coaming hatch to the lazarette, and a door from aft into the pilothouse. Steps down each side lead along the cabin, with entry doors, then to steps up to the foredeck, with raised hatch entry to the forecabin, anchor windlass, dinghy, and storage. The mast is stepped through the foredeck and has shroud chainplates outboard at the hull sides, a single forestay to the stemhead fitting, and aft tending upper shrouds as backstays.

Five transverse bulkheads subdivide the vessel into six belowdeck compartments. From forward: forepeak/chain locker, port and starboard quarters with water closets, companionway space, machinery space, aft quarters and water closet, and lazarette.
