Bareboat Yacht Charter

• Port Aft Cabin​

  • Double bed 6'2" width or two singles (i.e., remove the filler)

    • All beds on the Fat Bottom Girl have Froli springs - more comfort!  I highly recommend lifting the mattress to make sure the springs are attached to each other

  • en suite head

    • plenty of head room

    • separate shower with partition (i.e., you won't hose down the entire head when you shower)

    • electric flush with holding tank

​

• Starboard Aft Cabin​

  • Double bed 5'9" width

​

• Starboard aft head​

  • separate shower with partition

  • electric flush with holding tank

​

• Starboard and Port Forward Cabins​

  • Double bed 60 inches width (tapers towards bow)

  • Dedicated head (wet)

​

​

• Saloon

  • Plenty of head room

  • Leather upholstery

  • Fusion MS-RA205 AM/FM/Bluetooth/IPOD stereo

    • Speakers in Saloon and Cockpit

    • Personally I find hooking up to it via Bluetooth is fiddly - I recommend using a USB cable and using the IPOD (apple) or MPT (Android) source option

  • Chart table and two seats on starboard side

​

• Galley​

  • Gas stove with 3 burners 

  • Small 120V toaster oven (usually under seat in saloon)

  • Induction (120V) hot plate (stored in drawer under fridge) 

  • Top opening auxiliary fridge.  This smaller fridge is perfect for storing drinks such that the main fridge can be dedicated for food

  • 34 Gallon electric main fridge (130l).  Front opening

    • third fridge in the cockpit - sufficiently large to store most of your drinks for daytime use

  • 17 Gallon (65l) freezer.  Front opening

  • Microwave

  • Three ways to make coffee

    • Keurig K cup coffee maker​

    • Mr Coffee 

    • Old fashioned percolator

​

• Air Conditioning and Generator

  • 3 zone Air conditioning (Do you "need" AC?  Follow this link for some AC thoughts )

  • Cummins Onan MDKDL 9KW generator

    • Burn rate of approximately 0.4 gph at half load

    • 1800rpm - It's quiet!

    • Best to start the generator without the AC load, i.e., turn the air conditioning systems off either before you shut down via the thermostat or flip the breakers.

​

• Electrical

  • 5000W inverter (when you're not running the generator)

  • Victron energy management - see "Instruments"

  • Solar panels 2x310 watt

  • 120V US outlets - minimum 1 in each cabin, head, and saloon

  • Dual USB charger ports in each cabin and saloon

    • Uses the 12V electrical system so no need to run inverter or generator if all you want to do is charge a "device"

    • NOTE:  There are two sets of USB plugs in each cabin.  You will usually find the second set behind the light fixture.  This second set of plugs is powered by the 12V system and is always "on" and is usually the plug you want to use.

​

• Lighting

  • All LED lighting.  Bright, robust, and low heat

    • "courtesy" lighting on the floor.  I call it a "night light", i.e., just enough light that you can make your way around if you have to be up and about in the dark

​

• Water maker

  • Rainman 40 gph (when filters are clean) desalination

  • Run with AC power supplied by generator

    • MAKE SURE you are in an area with clean water or you will destroy the membranes.  Oil sheen on the water?  Very bad!

    • Do NOT attempt to run the water maker if the battery charger is in "bulk" mode.  Wait for the bulk charging to finish before starting the Rainman
