The sixth FPB 64 is now undergoing sea trials. She has a new great room layout, and we thought you might like to see a few photos of the galley. It is late, there is lots on our plate, so we’ll let the photos speak for themselves.
There is a new table in the salon as well. This one has folding leaves,
and a high/low mechanism.
Now a couple of photos from the basement.
And finally, a couple of details from on deck.

November 25th, 2012 at 9:45 am I notice in the spec (on the Berthon site) for the 64 that you’ve changed to Simrad AP50 autopilots. I thought you were a great fan of the WH. Why the change?

Long story, Bob: Bottom line is that while we’d use Wil’s gear ourselves we feel switching pilots was best. At present we are fitting Com Nav with Accusteer pumpsets.November 25th, 2012 at 9:51 pm

December 2nd, 2012 at 2:33 am Steve, What wood was used in the galley? Is it real or engineered?

Hi Mike: The galley timber is real, not plastic (although some of the new HPLs are almost impossible to tell from the real thing), and cherry.December 3rd, 2012 at 4:47 pm
