\"FPB<\/p>\n

We have been limited in sharing details\u00a0of the FPB 97-1. In this post we will give you a quick overview of a few of the more interesting design and construction aspects.<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

The photos speak for themselves, so the copy will be short.<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

There are two parallel Simrad EVO navigation systems. The FPB 97 is typically conned from the Matrix deck (shown above).<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

FPB 97-1 has her Matrix deck fitted out in a combination of aluminum, paint, and bare teak.<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

The stairway leading to the main deck has a simple but effective closures system.<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

The next series of photos is of an idea the owner suggested, which was then engineered by Circa.<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

This is a life boat-like, hydraulically operated set of dinghy davits.<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

Launching and retrieval can be single-handed when required.<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

When the davits are outboard the deck is clear.<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

Now a few aft deck items.<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

Control lines for boom angle, at-anchor flopper stoppers, and boom halyards.<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

We have switched our foremast lights to LED and they are both bright and small in cross section.<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

The engine room looking from the aft starboard corner forward and to port,<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

\u00a0A somewhat distorted panoramic view of the engine room.<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

DC alternator rectifiers, controls, and voltage controllers are on the bulkhead. Fuel filters on the starboard day tank along with fuel polishing manifold valves are outboard.<\/p>\n

\"FPB<\/p>\n

Coming back to the dock after a long day of testing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
