GENERATORS

HIS AND HERS is well set up for her different electrical needs. Even though the 2 generators were purchased one year apart, they are both PHASOR which means carrying spares is a lot easier than if they were two different manufacturers.

21KW  Phasor generator (2017) 1300 hrs

12.5KW Phasor generator (2019) 50 hours


ENGINE ROOM


The engine room of HIS AND HERS is accessed through a full height door opposite the master stateroom.

Two 200 gallon water tanks are located aft of the fuel tanks.

A custom 400 gallon fuel tanks are located forward of the engine with the fuel manifold on the forward wall under the shelf. There are even site gages located on the tanks that makes it easy to see just how much fuel you do have aboard.

The attention to yacht safety is also readily apparent.  HIS AND HERS does not leave the dock on her yearly travels until every fire extinguishers have been inspected, all oil and filters have been changed.
