Both have been completely serviced. Quintessence also has additional fishing equipment and other boating equipment. Another often overlooked but very major expense in acquiring a new yacht is the necessity to carry a wide range of spare parts. The owners have already outfitted QUINTESSENCE with a very extensive selection of spare parts for all of the major boat systems. These range from the routine spares like fuel/oil filters, belts, hull/heat exchanger zincs to much more expensive critical spares including spare Starter Motor, Alternator, Freshwater pump and fuel pump for the main engine and a two year supply of replacement filters/cartridges for both the 12v and 110v Watermakers. These are just a few of the major spares on board which represent a major investment and provides peace of mind to any new owner that is unlikely to be matched by many other vessels offered for sale. Bimini with stainless steel frames Dodger with stainless steel frames Custom made Sun Screen decks when at anchor/marina Spares for (Engine, Generator, Watermakers, Rigging, Dinghy, Outboard, electrical, plumbing, stanchions, etc) Large selection of spare pumps (Bilge, A/C, Freshwater, etc) Dorades and Foul Weather covers Selection of 2008 Cruising guides & Almanacs Massive inventory of workshop tools and fittings (2) PENN Slammer Trolling Fishing Rods with PENN Senator Reels and other fishing accessories Complete inventory of Bed Linen, Towels, Comforters Cockpit cushions MAGMA Propane BBQ Grill Charcoal BBQ Grill Large inventory of spare Halyards, mooring lines, anchor rodes etc Spare diesel and gas jerry cans Large selection of fenders Fresh water deck shower Salt water deck wash Redundant Systems and Easy to Sail QUINTESSENCE is a rare and desirable boat for many reasons. Not least, is the current owners demand for all major systems to have a backup in case of breakdown or failure. This mean that there are two autopilots, two watermakers, two compressors for the fridge and SSB with Pactor Modem for ocean communications. Where it is not possible to carry a complete backup (i.e. the engine), the owners have ensured a vast array of spare parts. Quintessence is easily handled by two people under sail and within the marina. She has all the comforts of home and provides the perfect yacht to cruise the Caribbean in style or to undertake a circumnavigation. Her extensive equipment inventory allows her to provide literally months of complete independence from shore based services (e.g. water, fuel, marinas, etc).
