"OWNERS COMMENT" Solar panel (not mounted or walkable) with wiring to electrical system. Max 40W output when properly placed outside in the sun. Enjoyed it a lot while at anchor, as it supplies exactly the power the refrigerator uses. This makes it possible to be without shore power for a long time, especially when sailing on the engine.

Mosquito screens.

"OWNERS COMMENT" Drawer unit custom made in the place the card table was, very much extra storage space for cards, dishes, food and other items. Is not quite finished yet: I still have the wood for the top (now the old top sits on it). And the wood for the plate to be against the "ceiling"; now there is a cheap sheet of wood there. Was done with the idea of first figuring out where to put the equipment (VHF, AIS, navtex, etc), then use the nice wood and not have to make too many holes :-). I also got the wood for the plate under the drawer block, is also 'cheap' wood now, was done then because my trip was already starting. Finally, I still have the 'skirting boards' to finish the edges, these are original, as elsewhere in the boat.

"OWNERS COMMENT" Chartplotter: Raymarine a65 with Wifi /Navionics Plus UK and NL -> navigation and screen running outside on a windows laptop. Software is subscription bound though (Stentec) so when selling I belong to reset (or take away) the laptop and then the new owner can use a laptop plus their own chosen software. There is no Raymarine plotter so, screen outside is a "2nd screen" via hdmi cable to laptop inside. Self-steering, AIS and compass are via board network, can now be via wifi and is also wired, linked to laptop.

In 2020 almost all halyards and reefing lines and sheets renewed.
