Nevermore Ship Systems Status

Nevermore Systems Status

This page is intended as a way for sailors to quickly determine which systems on the boat are not operating normally.

Please enter information about any systems that are not operating correctly on the boat, or which are operating in a non-standard way that skippers and crew should know about.

Engine

• Throttle tends to slip back, needs to be held to maintain RPMs.

Electrical

12v systems

• VHF Radio: not connected
• RADAR: not installed
• Wind Instruments: not connected
• Knotmeter: missing
• GPS: works, but currently cannot be charged
• Handheld VHF: works, but currently cannot be charged

110v systems

• shore power connections:
  • will provide power to 110 receptacles
  • shore power ground may not be isolated: do not use for extended periods of time

Rig

• Traveler: non operational - tied in center position
• Mainsheet: operational, but traveler not usable.
• Jib roller furler: operational, but difficult to turn
• Jib sheets: functional but very frayed.

Freshwater

Head

• pumping out works, but pump leaks
• valve in head unit leaks, so if yellow thru-hull is left open, the bowl will fill with water and that water will spill into the bilge. this often sucks urine and feces in with it from the hoses (when people do not pump out completely), resulting in foul odors and shit in the bilge.

Dinghy

• Yes, we have no dinghy

Other

• Several portholes leak
• both hatches leak
• starboard cockpit lazarette leaks
• bimini not installed
• stove: no alcohol
