After undergoing a 300K refit The Lost Soul is back on the high seas, Live the dream Sail the 7 Seas , I can tell you this. Lost Soul is at home where she belongs;
at sea, cruising the world and bringing adventure into the lives of
those she touches.
Mexico, Hawaii, the Marquesas, Tahiti, Tonga, Samoa all behind her. Then the Caribbean, both the Western and Eastern, as well as all corners. She has sailed across the Atlantic twice, and all through the Med from Gibraltar to Greece and back out again, she is completely refit and eager for more miles.
Accommodations
As you enter the main salon from the storm room you
find a staircase with banister (not a companionway ladder)
that leads you down into the main salon, past your own
mermaid. This is the main room of the boat, and is made
for comfort and entertaining. On the port is a settee that
opens using hydraulic lifts to expose the dual Technautics
reefer systems, one for the reefer and one for the freezer.
In the sections next to them are plenty of open storage
areas for pots and pans.On the starboard side is a "U" shaped settee and
dining table which opens to hold charts. There are two
round stools that open for storage, and can be used for
either coffee tables or stools at the table,Going forward
beneath the custom
clock board carved
with a likeness of
our mascot, Atty
"The Dude" Tude,
you enter the guest
cabin. On the port
side is a single berth
and sitting area with
storage beneath, and
the new Alston 120
volt stacked washer
& dryerOn the starboard
side is a full king
size Tempur Pedicmattress. There are pullman curtains for privacy, and a
flat screen TV/DVD player hooked into the ship's KVH
DISH systemGoing forward you pass another hanging locker to
starboard, and enter the forward head. Here we have a
sink, Wilcox-Crittenden head, and hand-held shower.
Forward from the head is the chain locker.When you enter the boat at the stairway, if you were
to turn to the right instead of coming down the stairs to
the salon, you would enter the navigation station and
the crew quarters.The nav station is at the bottom of
a winding stairway,Just aft of the nav station is the crew cabin. This has
dual berths with opening ports and full headroom.On the port side of the boat opposite the nav
station is the full galley.Between the galley and the nav station is the
battery and electrical room.Just aft of the battery room and amidship is the engine
room.On the port side,
opposite the engine and
generator rooms, is the
workroom.Aft of the workroom is the master cabin, which
also has its own private head with shower. It features
a Wilcox-Crittenden Skipper head, Scandvik shower
facilities, a hanging locker and full length mirror.
Galley
On the port side of the boat opposite the nav
station is the full galley. This was redone to Jody's
specifications from the hull out: full 1-1/2" granite
counter tops, new
Scandvik sink and
faucets, as well
as water filtration
for the drinking
water, and backup
foot pumps for
both salt and fresh
water in case
the water pumps
decide to take a
day off.
The reefer and
freezer both have
R65 insulation of
vacuum panels, set
behind foam and
PVC sheets for
protection. They
are well insulated.
The upright reefer also utilizes a heavy plastic curtain to keep the cold in
when opened. REFRIGERATION: Technautics upright with R-65 vacuum panel/foam/PVC insulation and heavy plastic curtain for extra insulation (galley) and additional Engel Model 35 electric cooler with insulating blanket in Storm Room FREEZER: Technautics with R-65 vacuum panel/foam/PVC insulation (separate system)

Electronics
The nav station is at the bottom of
a winding stairway, and has a GPS, Globalstar phone
system, weatherfax, SSB/Ham radio and SailMail Pactor
unit for communications at sea. Here are all the manuals
and instructions for the systems on the boat.
The
instrument panel has grown to include
a Raymarine radar/chartplotter, as well
as the new Raymarine autopilot. We
also have a B&G autopilot, Northstar
navigation system, the B&G H1000
instrument package and a computer
screen for The Cap'n and Fugawi
navigation computer systems.
On the top we have an ICOM
VHF and the Polyplanar stereo system
with iPod input.

Electrical
Between the galley and the nav station is the
battery and electrical room. This small room is located
underneath the
stairway, and has
plenty of room for
the four Rolls deep
cycle batteries that
are the house bank
(about 3,000 amps)
as well as the Rolls
8D isolated starter
battery. We also have
the autopilot brains
and pumps located
in this area, along
with the Xantrex
controls.
One of the toughest parts of the refit was the rewiring from
scratch. For this project we used RJ Marine. They had just
finished wiring the Irving Johnson, so we figured they could do Lost
Soul. We ran all the 110 controls to a panel near the galley, and
all the 12-volt controls to a panel just inside the companionway.
Around the 110 panel was also installed the generator panel and
control panels for the watermakers.
We wired for the 50-amp 110 service to be hooked up at either
the bow or stern, which would ease things in strange ports. BATTERIES: (4) Rolls Deep Cycle (approx. 3000 amp-hours) House, (1) Rolls 8D Starting battery, and (4)Rolls 6VDC deep cycle in forward battery box with 24VDC charger for bow thruster. BATTERY SWITCHES: Yes BATTERY MONITOR: Xantrex ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: 12VDC and 120VAC with dual shore power connectors (50 Amp), both bow and stern, Blue Seas electric panels INVERTER: Xantrex 3000 Sine Wave Inverter with 180 Amp charger INTERIOR LIGHTING: SOLAR PANELS: (3)Each Fourwinds Enterprises KC85C @7.2 amps each and (6)Each Fourwinds Enterprises KC65T @3.7 amps each, for a total output of almost 40 Amps running thru (2) Blue Sky solar boost controller/regulators. DOCKSIDE CABLES: GENERATOR: Fischer-Panda 8 KW SPARE GENERATOR: Honda EU2000 gas powered portable ALTERNATOR:Leese-Neville 220Amp with Balmar regulator OTHER: Spreader Light control panel in Storm Room
Deck /Hull/Sails
The deck
is all 5/8" teak over new hardwood subdecking, with MAS
Epoxy and fiberglass to keep her strong & dry. Forward
is a bow pulpit with a mount for our Herreshoff swivel
canon from Ye Olde Canon Maker, which doubles as a
bow seat when the canon is not in place.
There are double bow rollers, one sporting a 110-
pound Bruce anchor attached to 400 feet of 3/8" chain,
through a Muir 3500 windlass. On the second roller is a
stainless CQR, which has 60 feet of 3/8" chain and 300
feet of nylon 7/8" rode. We also carry a 65-pound hightinsel
Danforth and a 33-pound Bruce for a lunch hook.
Just aft of the bow and anchor area is the foredeck
box. This was built to store dive tanks, deck furniture,
dive gear and extra anchor gear. It also is used for
sleeping when in the tropics, as it has a 4" foam cushion.
The new headsails are from North Sails and are
controlled with our original 15-year-old Harken furling
system. It still works perfect after all these years and
miles. We run a six oz. cloth on the headsail and a nine
oz. on the staysail, which doubles as our storm sail in
bad weather.
The new Quantum main and mizzen were made
to use with the Forespar Leisurefurl in-boom furling
system. I cannot say enough about how great this
system works. Perfect shape at any reef point. All
sails are controlled from the cockpit, including raising,
lowering, and even reefing. This is the best system we
have ever used. To make it even easier, we added a
couple of Andersen electric 58 secondaries, which we
use to raise, lower and reef the sails, as well as to furl
the headsails when we are in tough
weather.
The main and mizzen sheets are
handled by Garhauer travelers. The
one on the main is the new non-fouling
traveler, and believe me, it doesn't foul.
We opted for both control lines to lead
out the port
side for ease
of handling, and we use the Spinlok snap locks to
secure them.
Every winch on Lost Soul is an
Andersen self-tailing winch, with
68s as our primary winches, electric
52s for secondary and sail hoisting,
and assorted mast and deck mounts
as well.

Mechanical
Just aft of the battery room and amidship is the engine
room. This is totally sound insulated, and is home to the
Perkins 135HP normally aspirated diesel and the Borg
Warner Velvet Drive transmission. It also houses the
HRO System 10 120-volt watermaker system, and the
Spectra 12-volt Catalina watermaker; one for use when the
generator is running, the other for use when motoring.
Also in the engine room is the KTI FilterBoss system
and the TransferBoss. These are two monitored units thattransfer and polish the
fuel, either between
tanks or from tank to
engine. They both
have pressure gauges
and alarms, so if we
have a filter clogging,
we can just switch to a
clean one and keep the
engine running.
Just behind the
engine room, and
under the large hanging
closet amidship, is the
generator room. This houses the Fischer-Panda 8 KW
generator, with a one-gallon day tank (gravity feed) right
above it.
On the port side,
opposite the engine and
generator rooms, is the
workroom. This was
originally dual berths
similar to the crew
cabin, but we needed
a good place to keep
spares, tools, and to work on things when they go wrong,
which is a usual occurrence on any boat. We put in a
three-inch-thick mahogany bench, with storage underneath
and above, with numerous drawers, and storage areas.
We also put in our own hardware store full of nuts,
bolts, screws and washers. The workroom is also home
to the icemaker (below the workbench), as well as our
coffeemaker, which sees us through night watches. Mechanical AIR CONDITIONER: (1)MarineAire reverse cycle in aft cabin and (1)MarineAire 16,000 BTU reverse cycle in Salon BILGE PUMP: (2) Automatic Bilge pumps on float switches, Edson emergency hand bilge pump, NEW Honda WMP20 gas powered emergency bilge pump capable of 220 GPM with 2" ports RAW WATER SEA STRAINER: Yes BILGE BLOWER: Yes FIRE EXTINGUISHING: Automatic Halon system in engine room and several portable dry chemical units FUEL FILTERS: NEW KTI FilterBoss and TransferBoss systems that transfer and polish fuel between tanks and also to the engine.
