"Miss Brenda Jean"  is our 1964 pilothouse motor-sailer. She is 32 feet long on deck and has a 10ft beam. She draws 3'10" of water. Sloop rigged. Designed by Charles Angle of Triangle Yachts in Rochester NY.

     In 1964 fiberglass boats were in there infancy and very new concept. The hull was made by the Canadian company "Grampian Marine" or so we believe. Grampian was an early pioneers in Fiberglass production after acquiring the knowledge on how to do it from Dyer boats in Rhode Island who had build some very early powerboats using fiberglass. The thing we find so appealing about our little boat is that she looks and feels like a wood boat her character is classic. Her interior is bright and airy, Very spacious for a little boat for this age. Lots of warm wood on the inside and just enough outside to look good but not drive you crazy. Let me show you around.

	Stern view
	Anchor platform
	Under sail
	The cockpit, really very small, good for fishing. grill on the back.
	Sliding door
	The pilothouse is great, really sold us on the boat, To starboard a big settee, the back is hinged, flip it up, lock it and you have a nice double bed, Opening windows and a big overhead hatch allow plenty light and ventilation
	To port is the steering station, Has all the gages, Radar, a chart plotter, VHF, Stereo, CD player. The captains seat folds out of the way when not in use. Open a couple folding chairs and you have a living room
	The engine is Perkins 4-108 diesel.Velvet drive transmission I think it is about 45hp. Located under the floor boards in the pilothouse. Another thing that I really liked about the boat is every single floor panel lifts up easily. Nothing in the boat is hidden all the tanks, wiring, pluming, steering is right out in the open so easy to work on. No fiberglass molded pans to deal with.
	Two steps down from the pilot house to port is a wrap around dinette. Boat came with a 17 inch flat screen TV and DVD player. There is a drop board that fills in the center and turns this into a double berth,
	Same Dinette at a different angle, The unit above the electric plug is a foldout flip down table very cool someone did a nice job building it.

	To starboard is the galley. It is very simple has has not been modified, 2 burner alcohol stove, small sink, great big ice box, lots of storage, and cabinets beneath. Boat has Hot and cold pressure water.
	The head, It is actually pretty good for a boat this age. New marine toilet all up to code, Y valve 20 gal holding tank. Good storage. You can't see the faucet but it has a telescoping hose on it you can use as a shower if your so inclined. Drains into the floor pan.
	The forward berth, very unconventional and something I really like. These are called over and under berths as opposed to the traditional v-berth. Personally I hate v-berths as I am to big to get in and out of them easily. This style saves lots of room. So easy to get in and out of. Further forward is a large chain locker. Just aft is a large hanging locker with additional shelving. Like a lot of boats the door to the head swings open and locks in place closing in these berths the lockers and the head to a nice private area with 6'2" head room
