Hull and Deck Construction
Cold-molded / wood-epoxy with laminations of Spanish cedar and Honduras mahogany over a laminated mahogany and ash structure. The hull is then protected by an exterior skin of 10 oz. E-Glass set in epoxy and finished off with a white painted exterior coating.
The deck is of laminated marine plywood and covered with 10 oz E-Glass set in epoxy, final finished with smooth and non-skid painted surfaces and Trimmed with bright finished teak.
Cabin sides, cockpit coamings, toe rails, taff rail and coverings boards are all of varnished teak.
Pleione’s construction is exceptionally rugged, since she must fully conform to Lloyd’s Scantlings in order to receive an official 8-Meter Class measurement certificate.
Deck Hardware
Sail tracks, traveler track and fixed turning blocks are all by Harken
Deck winches are by Lewmar
Anchor locker below deck forward / lazzerette storage area furthest aft.
Interior Arrangement and Accommodations
Looking at PLEIONE as she sits on her mooring or tied up alongside a dock one would assume that the interior spaces below would be quite spartan but this could not be further from the truth. There is a surprising amount of room and light below with standing head room for most folks in the main cabin, plenty of sitting space around the main saloon table for cocktails and more than enough in the way of berthing space to handle her full racing crew.
Furthest forward is sleeping accommodations for two persons in a V-Berth configuration.
Next aft (to port) is the head area and (to starboard) a hanging locker and galley storage.
Continuing aft there is the main saloon / galley area with an L-shaped dinette (with dining table) to port and galley area to starboard.
Galley is fully equipped with CNG stove / oven, well-insulated top-opening, 3 cubic foot (Sea Frost) refrigerator) and stainless steel sink basin (cold only) pressure water.
Furthest aft are two quarter berths (port and starboard) with engine box / companionway ladder on center-line.
