The upgrade includes an optimized fuel system , which now features recessed tanks and dedicated compartments with a watertight hatch. In addition, this allows for a fuel capacity of up to 100 gallons. Furthermore, improvements have been made to its structure and equipment to ensure better performance in demanding conditions.
[post_relacionado]The vessel is 22 feet long, has a beam of 10 feet, a depth of 33 inches, and a draft of 19 inches. She is equipped with twin 250hp Yamaha engines, giving her plenty of power for her operations. She also features two 5-ton deck winches with 75 feet of 5/8″ stainless steel cable, 3-foot knee thrusters, and 4-inch D-ring fenders. Technological features include a VHF radio, megaphone, and PA system, as well as a Honda 2200i generator.
Other features include a Kobelt mechanical shifting overhead helm station, running lights and four 6-inch LED deck lights. The functional design includes a tilt-up pilothouse and sliding windows, with the forward window hinged to open outward. The boat also features a dual white and red marine light, a three-way bilge pump switch and two 1,100-gallon bilge pumps, plus a four-way receptacle and 12V horn.
