Syncopation Spec Check

Today we went for another visit to the boat builder in Blisworth. We took the latest version of the specification and plan for Syncopation.
He'll meet with the shell builder at the end of the week to order the hull for delivery at the end of May!
I've made some very minor changes to the spec - addition of a heater to blow warm air at the steerer from the engine cooling system in winter. This is probably the final version, on which the contract will be based.
We were given some bad news, though. Beta have stopped making the propgen! This engine driven generator was a central part of my gas free narrowboat design. Apparently the demand was not sufficient for this unit. Now we'll have to either reduce the size of the galley hob to a two ring version (not likely swmbo says) or seek an alternative way of generating 7.5kVa from the engine. There is a 7.5kVa travel power unit but Beta aren't keen on it so more research for a power unit is required. We may get away with a 3.5kVa Travelpower unit and use the inverter to "top up" when we have all the cooker rings on. It's pretty unusual to use all the rings on the cooker at once, so it may be enough.
