Efficient Power and Propulsion: Single Cummins 6CTA 8.3M 300hp engine (2,126 hours, serviced May 2024), Northern Lights 10KVA generator (1,980 hours), and hydraulic bow thruster. Maximum speed 10.5 knots, cruising 7.5-8.5 knots.

Safety and Redundancy: Dual autopilots (Simrad AP48/AP44 and Furuno 711C, 2023), two EPIRBs, 6-man liferaft (2022), and independent navigation networks for backup.
Interior and Layout
Step aboard ADAMAS to experience a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The expansive cockpit, with teak decks and ample seating, leads to a deck-level saloon with 2.1m ceilings and large windows for panoramic views. The saloon includes a built-in lounge, Samsung TV, and Fusion stereo, adjacent to a fully equipped galley. The helm station, forward of the saloon, features updated Furuno and Simrad electronics for safe navigation.
Below deck, a central lobby houses a laundry (Miele washer-dryer, storage) and additional refrigeration. The master cabin offers a queen bed, large ensuite, and ample storage, enhanced by bronze portholes. The guest suite provides a double berth, convertible bunks, and an ensuite, while the crew cabin includes bunks, an ensuite, and stern access. All cabins feature 2.1m ceilings and air conditioning.
Engine Room and Systems
The stand-up engine room is designed for ease of maintenance, with a workbench, tools, and storage. The Cummins 300hp engine is supported by a 175Amp 24V alternator (2023) and dual Victron 3000VA inverters. A Northern Lights 10KVA generator and 1,720W solar panels ensure power redundancy. Fuel management includes four 1,800L tanks with dual pumps and Racor filtration, re-plumbed in 2023 for reliability.
Performance
ADAMAS achieves fuel efficiency, with past passages recording 8.33-12.86L/hr at 6.8-8 knots, depending on conditions (e. G., wind, currents, hull state). These figures are estimates based on owner experience and not guaranteed, as performance varies with external factors.
