Arctic Star is a 46-foot Grand Banks Classic. This model is a traditional trawler style with walk
around deck, flybridge deck, and raised coach roofs over the forward and master stateroom.
2.1 Exterior
At the bow, a bowsprit with anchor roller supports a
windlass with a 66-pound Bruce anchor. Foot switches to
raise and lower the anchor and chain are at the base of
the windlass platform. The chain falls from the windlass
gypsy through a hawsepipe directly below into a chain
locker that is forward of the V-berth stateroom. A
seawater washdown faucet and hose are to the port side
of the windlass, a freshwater washdown faucet is on the
starboard side. Washing mud off the anchor and chain
keeps the anchor locker clean and reduces odor. An
anchor bridle is stored in the forward deck locker with
spare lines.
Shore power connections for 240-volt 50-amp service is
at the bow and at the stern. The 50-foot shore power
cord can be connected at either station whichever is more convenient for connecting to the
dock-side power supply. The cord can be stored in the lazarette under the aft deck.
The aft cockpit is two steps down from the side decks
at the same level as the swim platform. This makes
easy access to the swim platform and inflatable
tender. Under the cockpit floor is the lazarette
storage compartment with extra lines, a 200-foot
shore-tie line, water hose, cleaning supplies, and
other spare equipment. Access to the rudder posts
and an emergency rudder tiller are also in the
lazarette.
