The information summarized in these notes is intended to assist all skippers, crew and guests
on board
ESCAPE in feeling more comfortable with the basic "systems" and how they
work. If something isn't familiar to you, please check these notes. If the information is
unclear, incomplete, confusing, or otherwise less than helpful, please help us to add, change,
or restate the information so that it conveys the desired results: "Oh, now I know how to
operate the ......"
Please feel free to add YOUR suggestions for other information or clarifications at the end of
these notes on the blank pages. Your suggestions will be incorporated into future revisions
and will help everyone sailing
ESCAPE. There are several diagrams and figures appended
to these notes to help you identify the location of equipment, valves, and related items.
You will also find additional reference manuals aboard ESCAPE that can assist you in
feeling comfortable with the major systems. Two binders, “Mechanical Systems” and
“Electrical and Electronics”, contain original manufacturers manuals for most of the systems
installed aboard ESCAPE. When in doubt, or questions arise that are not adequately
covered in the “ESCAPE Plan”, please refer to these notebooks for additional information.
You will see that ESCAPE is posted as a No-Smoking vessel. We ask that you
restrict smoking to the cockpit or decks and/or dockside in order to maintain a
pleasant sailing environment for all guests. Your cooperation is appreciated.
May you be blessed with fair winds and calm seas!
