This high quality motor boat was built in 2002 by Viksund of Norway.It is powered by a well maintained Volvo Penta diesel engine with only 437 hours recorded.The engine is coupled to a single shaft driving a three bladed bronze propeller. The cruising speed is 15 knots and the maximum speed is 20 knots.The boat was designed to take the kind of weather conditions that are typically experienced in the North Sea. The sealed cabin and a superior keel design helps to maintain her sea keeping qualities. The boat is very well equipped including a bow thruster, a diesel fueled hot air central heating system and a separate engine heated windscreen demisting system.

The boat has one forward cabin, comprising 2 single berths which converts into a large double. The forward cabin also contains another (cross over) single berth at a higher level. The galley is fitted with a Wallas 900 Safe flame cooker, a stainless steel sink and a fridge. The cabin is heated with a Mikuni-My16 diesel fired hot air system. The main cabin also contains a toilet compartment comprising one head and one hand basin. A large canopy at the rear of the cabin also contains a shower. Hot water is provided by a Mobitherm hot water Calorifier which is located in the engine compartment.

All of the waste is pumped into a holding tank which is also located in the engine compartment. The waste level in the tank is continually monitored using a SCAD tank monitor panel which is connected to an external (non contact) capacitive type tank level sensor. To empty the tank you have the option of using a standard pump out deck fitting or alternatively pumping the waste overboard through a hull fitting when offshore or when it is legal and logical to do so. A manually operated Jabsco sanitation pump and a Jabsco Y–valve is installed downstream of the tank, which allows you to choose between the two options.

The boat is fitted with duel steering wheels and engine control levers. It has two 12 volt batteries installed which are kept fully charged either by the engine when running or by using a fixed charger when connected to shore power.
