The Basics

  • An (electric) motor capacity of 7.5 kW gives a sailing time of around two hours at an average speed of seven knots. At a speed of five knots your cruising time is four hours.
  • The maximum AC capacity is 2000 Watt for the microwave/oven; however, you will only use this for a relatively short period of time.
  • Your navigation station includes GPS, plotter, wind meter, speedometer and depth gauge
  • You require optimum ease of operation; centrally located.
