S/V Nevermore Ship's System Descriptions
Editor's note: * This document is spun off Aleida's Sub-System list version 11June04. * Observe that -- because section numbers are coded into the section headings -- we have turned the show contents" feature off, since it prepends its own computed section numbers to make a very silly list.
1 CONTENTS
2 SUBSYSTEMS TO BE ADDED TO THIS DOCUMENT
3 BOAT SYSTEMS
3.1 standing and running rigging (including mast-partners)
- - - - * standing rigging (including mast-partners)
- - - - * running rigging
(do we want this header, since it's just a nuisance to put sails in subheaders under it (which we didn't do, you'll notice) (Maybe if I could think of more things to list under standing rigging, I'd like to have separate "standing" and "running" headers?)
3.2 Ship's Machinery
3.2.1 engine and transmission
Misc observations:
- Engine instrument panel gauge readings (05Sep07):
- Water Temp
- * goes off left (cool) end with sender removed
- * 360 ohm @ 100 deg, 25 ohm @ 230 deg
- Oil Pressure
- * goes off left (0 psi) end with sender removed
- * 460 ohm @ 0 psi, 44 ohm @ 50 psi, 0 ohm @ 80 psi
3.2.2 steering & binnacle
3.2.2.1 Wheel, drive & quadrant mechanism, rudder-post
3.2.2.2 emergency tiller
3.2.3 bilge pumps
3.2.3.1 Electric Bilge Pump
Jabsco Water Puppy (Model 18660-0121).
Specs:
Body | Bronze |
Impeller | Neoprene p/n 6303-0001, -0003 nitrite for oil-resistence |
Voltage | 12 Vdc |
Amp Draw | 8 amp |
Fuse Size | 15 amp |
Port Type | 1/2" Internal Pipe Threads |
Dimensions | 3 x 4-3/4 x 6-3/8 inches (7.6 x 12.0 x 16.2 cms) |
Weight | 4-1/2 lb (2 kg) |
More information can be found in the Jabsco Water Puppy Technical Data Sheet
This pump is mounted on the port side of the stern lazarette. A white, corregated plastic ("Bilge-flex"), 3/4" I.D. hose leads from the bilge to the pump. A white, corregated plastic, 5/8" I.D. hose leads from the pump to a through-hull port on the starboard side near the stern. Note that this is the same port used by the manual bilge pump.
The bilge pump is wired directly from battery #1 to the 3-way switch on the nav station breaker panel. The up position manually turns on the pump. The down position puts the pump in automatic mode, in which a "float switch" will turn on the pump when water level in the bilge rises. A 15-amp fuse is inline with the positive lead from battery #1. The yellow rubber fuse holder for this fuse is strapped to the wiring harness that runs directly above battery #1.
The float switch (which doesn't actualy float) for the bilge pump is located behind the aft-most panel above the port bench in the cabin (just forward of the nav station). An orange hockey-puck-sized rubber cover surrounds a microswitch which is affixed to a rubber diaphram. A black plastic air tube runs from the diaphram to a plastic air bell in the bilge. Rising water in the bilge will increase air pressure in the tube and activate the switch.
As of 9/3/2007, the switch is not sensitive enough to be activated by 6 inches of water. Deeper water might activate the pump, but the required depth is unknown. A newer model float switch (Jabsco Hydro Air Bilge Switch) will be ordered.
3.2.3.2 Manual Bilge Pump
This pump is mounted on stern lazaret to starboard of steering position. Its handle is tied to boat in stern lazaret. A second handle is aboard. Gray corrugated plastic hose, approx 1", leads from bilge to pump.
TODO: define hose to thru-hull, and position of thru-hull.
TODO: define model number, capacity, etc., of pump.
