Engines

MAIN ENGINES
Any vessel with a large range has to have the support of the Main Engines not only to get where they are going but more importantly to get them back. If you had to select engines that were reliable enough to operate with a 17,000 Nautical Mile Range then it would have to be DEUTZ. These twin 1650 BHP engines each have eight cylinders that are air starting, water cooled with raw water and reliable especially have been rebuilt in 1999.

Construction

OVER 2 MILLION WAS SPENT ON HER LAST DRY DOCKING SO ALL THE IMPORTANT WORKS HAVE BEEN DONE.

This vessel was manufactured in 1967 until 2002 was employed as an active research and survey vessel in the Canadian Coast guard. All her systems are maintained to a very high standard while in service which included constant upgrades and refit in 1999 prior to her being sold for private use. From 10/08 until 03/09 she was dry docked and completely serviced as the first stage for her conversion to a pleasure yacht. This included inspection and service to her (2) x 1650 deutz engines ( in perfect order ), complete rebuild of (2) Cat: 3408 AC generators, pulling and rebuilding both propeller shafts, rebuild of both Rolls Royce variable pitch props and systems, rebuild of clutch and gear systems to main engines, blasting and bottom paint, new anodes, blasting and paint above water line, new timber deck. These represent the larger items that were completed during the refit however many other services were finished in the same period.

Should the new owner wish to maintain her as a research vessel it is important to note that she also has Upper & lower hydrographic labs connected by a service elevator, and also a dry lab in the aft. One of the hydrographic labs is refrigerated.

For storage she has deck space for (1) 20 ft. container and a 80 m3 approx. cargo hold.
