The FPB 64s are fitted with emergency tillers, the main purpose of which is to lock the rudder on center when hove to behind a parachute anchor. The two inch schedule 40 steel pip (galvanized) slips over a projection on the tiller to which the hydraulic cylinders attach.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The tiller is positioned and locked in place using relieving tackles.<\/p>\n

Float switch detail. These operate the bilge pump, high water alarm, and the damage control pump.<\/p>\n

The hydraulically driven damage control pump requires the seals to be wet. The valve feeds fresh water from the ship’s pressure system to the pump.<\/p>\n

A Murphy oil level gauge. The upper and lower pointers indicate the range for the oil level outside of which the alarm sounds.<\/p>\n

Electronics black boxes in the basement.<\/p>\n

Ease of access equals reliability, simple installation, and efficient changing when the time comes to upgrade.<\/p>\n

\"FPB64-Sarah-Sarah-758.jpg\"<\/p>\n

Still in the basement, negative buss bar (yellow wire) and positive fuse with protective cover.<\/p>\n

The fuel system in the engine room looks complex but is quite easy to operate.<\/p>\n

\"FPB64-Sarah-Sarah-682.jpg\"<\/p>\n

Select pump one or two and turn the suction and supply valves on.<\/p>\n

Watermaker output manifold.<\/p>\n

Loading software onto the ship’s PC in the office.<\/p>\n

\"FPB64-Sarah-Sarah-486.jpg\"<\/p>\n

Lots of work space. Reference data and ship’s manuals are stored on the shelf above the desk.<\/p>\n

File drawer, a cruising luxury.<\/p>\n

\"FPB64-Sarah-Sarah-255.jpg\"<\/p>\n

Basket system in one of two fridges (the other has shelves).<\/p>\n

The galley freezer (another is in the basement) extends outboard (to the left in the photo). Note the double gaskets.<\/p>\n

Hallway to the aft port cabin. The cabin door has been moved outboard, leaving half the hanging locker in the cabin and half accessible from the office.<\/p>\n

\"FPB64-Sarah-Sarah-803.jpg\"<\/p>\n

Right now this locker is used for clothing and personal items, but it could be a great place to store camera gear, office supplies, files, etc.<\/p>\n

Heads are very difficult to photograph. This partial view of the aft head area will give you a feel for the space. It works well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
