From the
builder:
This was the start of her 2,600 nm trip to the Singapore, with stops planned in
the Philippines
and Kota Kinabalu, although the boat had sufficient range to complete the trip
non-stop. The Owner is very satisfied with the interior and sea trials; max
speed about 12.7 knots with twin 235HP John Deere at 2000 rpm and 7.0~7.5 knots
with one engine at 2000rpm.
Onboard were Mr. Rod Steel as the Owner/Skipper, his
partner Angie Sach, Mr. John Holbrook and Mr. Alistair Dow. “MY Blue Steel”
arrived in Singapore,
where she will be based, on 14th January 2010 and is available for
viewing there by prior arrangement.

Most of our trawlers will accept a sail plan and there
are several options you could use including the junk rig. Here we see a small main combined with
a flying jib on this TY 485 owned and built by Branko KRESOJEVIC in
Belgrade Yugoslavia.
This Trawler 485 was
built in Belgrade and has already motor sailed from

via UK, Iceland, Greenland, Canada, USA to South America.

Hi Bruce, Sea Crest Marine in Bangkok were excellent to deal with.
When we left Bangkok we had a sharp 2 metre wave right on the bow for
the first 36 hours, quite the opposite from the big following seas that
we experienced bringing Rod Steel’s Trawler Yacht 620 down from Korea.
The TY520 handled the waves very well indeed. We had a problem with the
Auto Pilot hydraulics and had to hand steer for the whole 36 hours so we
would have known if the boat was not performing ! Towards the end of the
36 hours as we closed in on the Malaysia / Thai border the seas swung
around about 30 degrees from head on and we were still handling things
pretty well. No doubt the boat would be improved with Stabilizers but we
always felt safe.
We have power steering and
the boat really responds well. I am very happy with the way it
manoeuvres. Stats wise we have….Single John Deere 267 Hp and we were
cruising at 7+ knots using around 15 litres an hour at 1500 rpm. Very
economical. Twin Disc Gearbox and 4 blade prop, Onan 17.5 KVA Gen set,
8000 litres of Fuel giving us arrange of around 3000 miles, Yanmar 40Hp
for hydraulics. We have stern and bow thrusters and Lewmar windlass all
hydraulic, Raymarine Radar and electronics, 2000 litres fresh water,
Coltri Sub Dive compressor,
Happy to share any
information with prospective builders and also any advice regarding
where to build and with whom in South East Asia. I have attached some
pictures of the Sea Crest Pilot House and Engine room. They did an
excellent job. We arrived in Singapore just as they were having their
National Day celebrations so we got some good pictures! Very Happy to be
back in Singapore and Very Happy with the boat Bruce.

Hi Well, the day finally arrived, the STEEL OR ALUMINUM PLANS & CUTTING FILES is here and on our shop floor. The steel looks great, we are starting to sort it into piles of the frames and
associated pieces. I think the guys in Holland did an excellent job of cutting as
the edges of the plates are very clean and sharp with almost no bevel. This last
point is important, as we find with plasma cut STEEL OR ALUMINUM PLANS & CUTTING FILES, if there is any bevel on the edges it
tends to add up and compound errors where multiple parts fit together. So, we are
anticipating no problems at this stage. Hope you enjoyed the pictures Bruce (our Bruce)
sent you, we will send more as we start assembling the STEEL OR ALUMINUM PLANS & CUTTING FILES. We actually made good
progress on Friday and managed to build most of the building frames as well as all of the
jigs. We are altering the building frame a bit to allow us to set the jigs on the
floor as we are limited in height. As it is we will have to build the mast in a way
that it can be bolted on after the boat is out of the building. Yes, everything looks fine
and we are sure the STEEL OR ALUMINUM PLANS & CUTTING FILES will assemble fast.
Sincerely, Brian

STEEL OR ALUMINUM PLANS & CUTTING FILES writes :
Hi Bruce, Sorry for not writing sooner. We are really enjoying the project. I
have a friend that comes to work on the boat in the evening just for the relaxation. We are
almost finished welding the hull. We will build the house and pilothouse on a gig on the
ground.
I must remove for transport and feel there are benefits to building on the ground. I will
lift into place before moving to make sure everything fits. We are making some
changes from the original layout to better fit my needs. We've traded the amidships stateroom for a
good sized head, pantry and shop/mechanical room. I will install all plumbing, electrical,
day-tank, fuel management and heating in this room.
I've moved the engine in place and plan to build a box similar to a sound shield on a
generator around the main engine. Quiet is important to me. All tanks are in place. I plan
a transom door to the lazarette from the swim step, through the engine room and into the
mechanical room. hope to get my office gal to add more photos soon. Regards,
Lee
