Descriptions

Accomodations and layout

TUMBLEHOME sleeps four in two private cabins, plus two in the pilothouse and two in the main salon, with two separate heads and a very open layout for comfortable cruising. The interior is finished in a combination of white Formica, solid cherry trim, varnished cherry main bulkheads (much was newly added in 2019), and solid flat-paneled locker fronts. Cabin soles are varnished teak and holly, with varnished cherry hull ceilings and fabric overhead panels.

Pilothouse

One step down from the main cockpit, one enters the enclosed pilothouse that features seating for up to six. There is an L-shaped settee to port with up/down varnished cherry table that can convert to an on-deck double berth with mattress filler piece. To starboard is a full-length settee with built-in nav station and varnished cherry chart table forward. This unique space is comfortable, safe from the elements, climate-controlled with heat/AC, and quite airy with superb visibility in all directions. Overhead hatches, opening front windshield and numerous fixed windows provide excellent natural light and ventilation. In good conditions, the rear curtains can be opened to provide one large indoor/outdoor living space under sail or at anchor. Secondary access to the engine room and generator is through the lift-up starboard settee.

Galley

Stepping down from the pilothouse, one finds a functional wrap-around galley to starboard with storage and a large counter space.

Features include:


  • Formica counter tops
  • Double stainless steel sinks
  • Manual backup faucet
  • Large front-loading refrigerator and top-loading freezer
  • Force 10 3-burner stove with oven and broiler, and propane tank
  • Microwave oven
  • Numerous drawers and storage lockers, including overhead cabinetry


Guest Stateroom

The guest stateroom is opposite the galley to port, featuring upper and lower berths, bureau, and hanging locker.

Guest/Day heads

The guest head is adjacent to the guest cabin, with private access from the cabin or via a second door opposite the galley for convenient use as day head. There is a toilet, wash basin with shower and wet locker. In addition, a door leads aft to the walk-in engine room for easy access to all machinery and equipment located below the pilothouse.

Main salon Master headroom/Head

The master stateroom is forward, with a V-berth configuration featuring two large berths that can be converted to a double (new mattress, 2017). The cabin is unusually large for a yacht of this size and provides exceptional storage and floor area. There are bureaus each side with numerous drawers, lockers and (2) hanging lockers. A large deck hatch and (2) opening portholes provide great light and ventilation.

There is a private ensuite head to port with toilet, wash basin, deck hatch and opening porthole. Opposite to starboard is an ensuite shower with built-in seat, deck hatch and opening porthole.

Electronics and Navigation

In Pilothouse:

  • Raymarine radar and E 120 chartplotter with Class B AIS
  • Raymarine ST7000 autopilot with remote at companionway
  • Raymarine sailing instruments with (6) ST70 repeaters (2011)
  • Horizon VHF

  • Autohelm ST6000 autopilot with wireless handheld remote

Electrical System Hull

The hull is molded in FRP with 1" Airex foam core for added strength, impact resistance, and sound/thermal insulation. Vinylester resin is used throughout for the highest possible resistance to water osmosis. Hull is white gelcoat with gold cove, double blue boot stripe and blue bottom. Bottom stripped, with new epoxy barrier (2017).

All ballast is of pre-cast lead sections fully encapsulated by the fiberglass hull and keel. The lead is covered with approximately 3/8" solid FRP to create, in effect, a "double hull" for additional protection in case of a serious grounding.

Structural bulkheads are fiberglass with balsa core. Divisional bulkheads are built of marine-grade waterproof plywood. All structural bulkheads are bonded to the hull and deck with FRP and PVC foam spacers. Chainplates are made of 316 stainless flat bar weldments thru-bolted to reinforced FRP foundations attached to hull. The structural bulkhead forward of the owner's stateroom is watertight to act as a collision bulkhead. Rub rail is molded in with stainless steel striker.

Fuel and water tanks are built of molded FRP. All tanks are fully baffled with ample inspection ports, and the water tanks are coated with FDA-approved gelcoat to ensure good taste and low odor.


Deck

The deck is one piece molded FRP with Airex foam core for strength and stiffness. In areas where deck equipment is installed, core is replaced with high-density foam. Cockpit sides and coaming are solid fiberglass. Deck flange is solid glass. All deck hatch landings are molded FRP. The propane locker is molded separately and ventilated with direct drain overboard.
