ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

THE REFIT in:

LORA was launched in December of 2002 (under the name of ZEUS), and then went back to the yard to install a number of upgrades requested by her first owner. For personal reasons, the first owner took the boat for her first trip (from Anacortes, WA to Alaska) only in the spring of 2004, followed by his second trip (from Anacortes, WA to Cabo, Mexico). The current owner purchased the boat right after that trip in 2005, when she was almost brand new (and renamed her to LORA). He is an experienced yachtsman with extensive maritime experience in South Pacific, and he commissioned (at the boat manufacturer, Northern Marine) a number of enhancements to better prepare her for long range, Pacific cursing, including: a 5,000 lb. beaver tail, 5-blade propeller, bottom flow rails; a Targa hard top over the fly bridge; a new on-anchor ("zero-speed") stabilization system; interior rearrangements down below to create a new VIP cabin, and a crew bunk room; a watertight door between the transom and lazarette; new jatoba floors throughout the boat (replacing the usual carpet); redundancy of all systems including the second complete anchoring system with redundant windlass, one more water maker, one more autopilot (with independent hydraulics), a second (4-tank, automated) scuba tank compressor, a third water heater (in-line) reseNed for the master cabin only, and a large number of other improvements and enhancements. The cost of the refit exceeded 700k.

THE PARTIAL REFIT (February-May, 2011 ):

The stabilization system has been upgraded to the latest (rear mount) model. In-depth seNice and maintenance of all systems has been performed, including all 4 diesel engines, hydraulic systems (including bow and stern thrusters, and the crane), the environmental (a/c) system, water makers, the grey and black water pumps have been replaced. All seacocks and fittings have been replaced. Access panels to all 5 tanks have been opened for inspection and reseated (after upgrading to a double-panel system). All appliances have been replaced (stove/oven, built-in refrigerator, two deep freezers, and more); all entertainment systems have been replaced including the latest generation SONY 3D LCD screens with 3D Blu-ray players in the main salon and the master cabin. Awlgrip paint has been inspected throughout the boat and replaced (repainted) in every area where it was not perfect (including the waterline, mast, crane, and all flat rails). The vessel computer network and the high speed satellite system have been upgraded to the latest technology. New teak seating arrangements have been added on the aft and bow decks. The cost of this partial refit (performed at in Fort Lauderdale) was over 350k.

Redundency in all systems and equipment make LORA capable of world cruising in complete comfort and safety. Rarely does a vessel the caliber of LORA become available to the open market. She was maintained in Palm Beach with no expense spared for upgrades and maintenance.

Sound Endeavor Refit (Oct.2023-Nov2024):

Sound Endeavor explored the waters of Prince Williams Sound and lived in Whittier, Alaska for 7 years until she was relocated to Anacortes, WA. in October 2023 for a refit at the Northern Marine Factory. During the recent yard period, she received many upgrades including an entire new Awlgrip Paint job and from top to bottom! All of her running gear was completely gone through, inspected, replaced or reconditioned as needed including a top end rebuild on the Cummins QSK-19 main engine. The hydraulics were serviced and the fire suppression system was recharged. Sound Endeavor is getting launched early November and is looking sharp for her new owners!
