But we think that we might be able to get away with leaving a cross bed made up a lot of the time and just use the bow door for coming and going. And yes, we'd rather a pump out loo as well. As for the bow thruster, we aren't fussed about them at all.<br />EllyElly and Mickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05859027125314402207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8849606427437002017.post-64075582125455371332011-03-18T20:21:14.326+11:002011-03-18T20:21:14.326+11:00Fit out quality looks great.
Rear hatch will have ...Fit out quality looks great.<br />Rear hatch will have been done due to being low headroom in trad stern entrance, perhaps the owner is very tall. Also looks like solar panel might be mounted on it to provide angle to the sun. To replace, would be negligable cost to fabricate a standard hatch, but solar panels work better angled towards sun, so would be moved on to roof mounting brackets.<br />Have read reports of Servern Valley cruisers fit outs being of high quality, but have no personal experience. ABNB are noted as only dealing with high end sales though, so a good indication.<br />50% LED lights could be a bonus. They make a huge difference to power consumption, but the replacement LED bulbs to convert standard filament ones cost £7.50 each, so somebody else has stood the cost.<br />Many cross bed mattresses are like this. Looks like it makes a nice big bed though.<br />Has immersion heater, so you could heat water from shore power if you should want to book a marina berth for a longer stay in one place, and heating not on in summer.<br />Remember travel power requires engine to run no less than 3000rpm, so washing would still be best done whilst on the move.<br />I would have preferred pump out loo, but that's just me.<br />As far as I am concerned, thruster not required, some might disagree. Good steerers can do it without!Peter Berryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10941073132300695291noreply@blogger.com
