EQUIPMENT
With his company
SXT,Marc Schmidt-Tapken has installed
a full set of instruments including NKE steering wheel on the boat. His unprecedented service and knowledge are of great value to us (www.sxt.nl).
The boat is equipped with Titanium Sailing from UK Sailmakers. Since our first boat, an X-79, we are a very satisfied customer of UK Sailmakers Deutschland, Dirk Manno and Stefan Voss (www.uksailmakers.de). The sprayhood is made by UK De Vries Sails from Makkum (www.devriessails.nl).
Mastervolt provides power on board: 2 Lithium Ion batteries (MLI Ultra 12/2500) combined with a Mass Combi Ultra and a solar charger SCM60 MPPT-MB. A Whisperpower Picollo completes the system.
For fresh water on board, we have installed a Schenker watermaker with a capacity of 30 liters per hour by
Skipsmaritiem from Hindeloopen. The water maker is supplied by RobWink serious seatools (www.robwink.nl).
Shipmaritiems professional crew in Hindeloopen have been very involved in the preparation of our boat for the trip. From installing the generator and water maker to lending a saw, we could always count on them (www.skipsmaritiem.nl)!
