5. DESIGN AND OPERATION OF BOAT COMPONENTS AND ASSEMBLIES
5.1. ENGINE UNIT
The design of the Boat provides accommodation of an outboard engine with an elongated deadwood (with the transom height being 510 mm). The engine
is fixed on the transom in a place specially provided for the purpose.
The fuel tank is arranged in a space specially provided on the boarding close to the transom. The tank is attached to the boarding by means of clamps.
5.2. RIGID BOARDING
The rigid boarding comprises the following components (see Fig.2):
– five boarding segments 1-5;
– four removable stops 6;
– two lateral beams (coverages) 7.
The lateral beams 7 serve to protect the boarding segments against relative misalignment when the crew members move across the boarding.
The upper surface of the boarding segments has a special non-slip coating.
