DECK PLAN AND ACCOMMODATION

1-5.     DECK PLAN

            Yamaha 33 “snagless” deck design has recessed tracks for genoa sheet cars and hatches faired into the line of the coach roof rather than sticking out. A collar around the mast carries the turning blocks and all lines disappear under the sea hood. Sheet stoppers on the cabin top bring lines back to two Lewmar 24 two speed winches.

            Anodized aluminum toe rails are full length, with integral cast alloy mooring chocks as part of the rails. Yamaha's over-sized cleats would be at home on a 40-footer. Glassed-in metal backing plates are found under all the deck hardware, another important design detail whose importance is often overlooked. This means that when you want to remove and re-bed a stanchion, there are no nuts to hold below deck.

            A dodger with stainless steel frame is fitted over the companionway as well as an instrument pod. The dodger is a vinyl-like material with high-quality clear plastic windows. A fitted UV-proof Sunbrella canvas cover goes over the entire dodger while at anchor.

            On the stern, two solar panels are mounted on a 360-degree articulating frame made of one-inch stainless tubing. These one-inch stainless mounts, we have had no problems with them. The solar panels have quick disconnect plugs and clamps so they can be removed in a jiffy.
