Propulsion and Performance

The living area boasts modern equipment including Dometic air conditioning, heating, a 60L water heater, and comprehensive LED lighting. The fully equipped galley includes 2 refrigerators (125L + 80L), freezer, oven, microwave, dishwasher (2021), and Kenwood washing machine (2021).
Autonomy and Technical Equipment
Autonomy is ensured by generous capacities: 800L of freshwater complemented by a 60L/h Desalator, and 400L of fuel. The electrical system was recently modernized with a Panda 6KWA generator (2023), 2 Victron 60Ah chargers (2025), 4 GEL 170Ah service batteries (2022), a 170Ah engine battery (2025), a Victron 700W inverter, and solar panels totaling 1200W.
