Interior Layout and Accommodations

Bagatelle has an interior well suited to the boats purpose of being an easy to sail day boat but also a fast race boat with

enough in the way of accommodations to house and feed the racing crew in relative comfort either at the end of a

coastal day race or overnight for longer more offshore events.

All the necessities for guests or the on-deck watch (head, galley and navigation station) are located within easy reach to

port and starboard of the companionway.

Further forward is the main saloon with settee seating / berthing to port and starboard and a drop leaf table on

centerline. If needed there is an additional berth that can be set-up above and slightly outboard of the port settee.

There are two more pipe berths in the forward cabin that also is used for headsail and spinnaker storage during racing.

Hull and Deck Construction

Light weight displacement hull with fin / bulb type keel and balanced spade rudder.

Keel is comprised of stainless-steel fin with lead ballast bulb, stainless steel trim tab and internal dagger board for

improved upwind performance.

Rudder is of carbon fiber construction with carbon fiber rudder stock.

Hull is of cold-molded, wood-epoxy construction strip planked with 5/8" tongue and grove western red cedar and 2-

layers of 1/8” Spanish Cedar laid over Mahogany ring frames spaced on 4’ centers.

Hull exterior is sheathed in 1-layer of 10 oz. fiberglass cloth set in epoxy and finished with an Awlgrip paint outer

surface.

Hull interior is sealed in epoxy.

Decks and superstructure are constructed of a sandwich construction of marine plywood with Corecell foam core

material. Exterior deck is sheathed in 1-layer of 10 oz. fiberglass cloth set in epoxy.

Deck and super structure areas are finished with an Awlgrip finish outer surface over-laid with faux teak decking on the

side and forward decks along with natural teak non-skid strips on the cockpit seating and underfoot in the cockpit and

on swim platform / transom.

An interior wooden I-beam runs the length of the boat providing an attachment point for all ring frames, stringers and

floors with all of the above mentioned sealed in epoxy.

The deckhouse and cockpit are a foam cored fiberglass fabrication thru bolted to the deck carlins. The deck house has an

overlay of 1/4"mahogany, finished bright. The deck house windows are polycarbonate except for the forward center

which is a 24" Lewmar opening hatch.

Water Ballast System

Water ballast tanks are installed under the side decks outboard.

Tanks are connected by large diameter PVC piping.

High-capacity pump quickly moves water ballast from side to side.

A high-capacity electric pump fills the ballast tank on starboard tack and gravity moves the water to the other side just

before the tack. This process takes 20 seconds. The ballast tank is emptied while on starboard tack by gravity or high-

capacity electric pump.

Hull and Deck Finishes

Topsides are an Awlgrip finish

Topsides are Aqua Mist White

Boot and Cove Stripes are Forest Green

Decks, cockpit and house superstructure are Aqua Mist White

Cabin sides and cockpit comings are varnished Mahogany

Bottom is coated with a very smooth coat of Black Widow anti-fouling paint.
