LARK was the last built of the very popular Lyman-Morse Sequin 44/46 series. A cosmetic refit was completed during the 1998/99 layup season to include the following: Awlgrip hull; Awlgrip deck and cockpit; Wood all exterior bright work and finish with 8 coats varnish. Paint interior white cabin bulkheads, 2 coats. This work was accomplished by the original builder. She is proven off-shore passage maker, with the sparkling performance expected from her designers. Original built for Gifford Pinchot (of Loon & Loki). The best every example of the Seguin 44/46 Series.
Accommodations LARK has a V-berth double stateroom forward with filler. Bureau and lockers are outboard, followed by a spacious head and shower to port and larg hanging locker opposite. The main cabin has a bureau, two settees, and lockers outboard. Gimballed cabin table is on centerline. The Galley is outboard on the port side with ample counter space, as well as copious locker and food stoarge outboard of the galley. Three burner propane stove and large refrigerator/freezer allow for comfortable, self sufficient, cruising. The double sinks are located on centerline over the very accessible engine compartment; To starboard is the roomy; foward facing nav station. Over the engine compartment is the mid-ship companionway. This allows the aft cabin to rmain undisturbed by guests or crew. There are passageways port and starboard to the aft, owners stateroom. There is a double berth to prot and a single to starboard with privacy curtains for the off watch. All bunks have lee cloths. The joiner work below is of the highest standard. White bulkheads with varnished teak trim give an open, airy feel to the interior. There are 12 opening ports. |
Galley Equipment The engine driven Grunert refrigeration & freezer system will keep ice cream on passages. In 1997 a DC cold plate system was added for use in harbour. It has worked so well that the two systems are truly interchangeable. Also in 1997 the stove was replaced with a Taylor propane system. There is hot and cold pressure water backed up by hand pumps for both fresh and salt water. Galley systems have proven themselves over many miles of offshore cruising. |
