We will look around outside then cockpit and finally inside. more interior shots to follow..( shots taken 8th July 2010)
Stainless steel work on the Atlantics has always been excellent. The split pulpit and roll down ladder forward allows for boarding from a pontoon Nose on.. The stub Bow sprit keeps anchor clear and helps when lifting anchor. Note the smart Wa=ear plates around all Cleats to protect GRP and reduce wear to warps.
Top view, Two big deck hatches gain access to chain locker and allow for stowage of several lines, fenders, hose etc forward..
stb locker lid lifted, Stowage on an aft cabin boat is always an issue so this extra space is especially good..
wonderful clear side decks with high rails and good grab rail to coachroof. Note screen covers always on and lack of fade inside as a result. The Teak deck is in excellent order..
Again good stainless work, drop down section each side becomes side boarding ladder... no need to store it anywhere...! Note shine to hull
front on, four serious fender baskets each side... low deck rail on fordeck
Aloft, TV antenna, radar reflector balls, GPS antenna, Remote powerful searchlight, obvious Radar dome
Back end, BIG easy step access to cockpit, extending arm davits carry dinghy ( Not Included) Superb new double lined aft deck enclosure canopy has just been fitted. Big stainless framed hatch to aft cabin, adds light and air.. low level cleats to platform are useful for those awkward berthing positions..and the platform is big enough to step off either side.
Detail of davits.. braced back to transom so nice and solid... note also fresh water shower,
aft deck cleats,, more wear plates, Mrs Dickens shows of shiny finish !
side decks looking forward, Taken in shed ..
aft access steps looking down,
fabulous aft deck, seating for a whole gang,,, low level lighting
helm straight on, good vision,,,
helm station ... room for paper chart, bench for three..
new lined hood is very smart
cabin entry door S/S framed.. note dark cover under screen to stop reflection... simple and effective.. cover over dash..
under helm seat stowage..
new fusion unit fitted recently
Arch hinge detail...SOLID... typical of Atlantic
ashore EVERY year at Hamble... photo spring 2010 note skeg keel,
stb aft quarter,, fully waxed every year..
from aft, skeg keel approx 7" deep adds directional stability at slow speed, and also acts as a "wave Breaker" so softening landings at sea..new anodes. antifoul stern gear polish etc each year..
