Functionality - Safety - Aesthetics To prepare and outfit a classical boat like ANIMA, especially regarding functionality, safety AND aesthetics one has to agree to some necessary compromise. To meet those requirements is also a certain challenge in planning and realizing the continuos changes, improvements and adapations in many aeras of nautical equipment. |
||
Examples for the KISS-Principle on ANIMA: 1. Footpumps for fresh- and seawater, no electrical pumps 2. Motor-powered by a since decades well proven engine from the automobile technology 3. Fuel tank indicator is a simple transparent tube. 4. Manual, rugged anchor windlass 5. Wherever possible electrical gear without electronics (e.g. two alternators for two circuits) |
||
All this leads to a lack of comfort and luxury in many respects. Nevertheless, ANIMA can be referred to as a thoroughly snug and safe ship with her own typical and unique nature! | ||
