Ed Burnett 30 ft Gaff Cutter 2001
FOXHOUND
BROKERS COMMENTS
FOXHOUND’s design was born of a collaboration between Nigel Irens and Ed Burnett – easy lines and a heavy displacement hull by modern standards yet with sufficient sail area to yield exciting performance and as an exceptional cruising boat – not to mention unmistakeable good looks with maybe just that hint of Laurent Giles and Harrison Butler. FOXHOUND, still in her first ownership, has been cherished and her condition hard to fault, succeeding both as a family cruiser and a racing gaffer.
ACCOMMODATION AND DOMESTIC EQUIPMENT
From a generous cockpit with high coamings and stowage lockers under the aft seating, the main access below is forward by sliding hatch in the coachroof and companionway steps down over the engine casing to the saloon. The ambience is both light and warm with the white painted deckhead, fascias and bulkheads contrasting with the varnished timbers of the framework and planking. Light is offered by the port lights and a second hatch with lens in the coach roof.
To port is the navigation area with generous chart table with stowage outboard and below. The galley also with good stowage is to starboard. Forward are the two main settee / single berths; one each side with a substantial drop leaf dining table amidships; the wine cellar beyond and below the cabin sole. There is good stowage outboard and below the berths
A doorway in the forward bulkhead leads to the fore cabin, its space allocated to the head, wet gear hanging and chain lockers. A further hatch with port light gives separate access and ventilation. Back through the saloon and abaft the galley and navigation zones are two good sized quarter berths.
The domestic equipment includes:
- 2 burner Force 10 cooker with oven (gas bottle in aft cockpit locker)
- 1 small, economical but capacious fridge
- Naturalmat quarter berth bunk cushions with memory foam
- Taylor’s diesel heater (separate fuel tank)
- Jabsco manual WC
- Clock & barometer
- 2 x Oil lamps
- 2 x Sinks with manual lever water pumps
NAVIGATION COMMUNICATIONS AND ELECTRONICS
