Re-fitted with a new Volvo Penta D1-20 19hp, indirectly cooled, three cylinder diesel in 2011. 

This engine has only covered 688 hours from new at Mid June 2021 

The engine drives a three-bladed propeller through a conventional stainless steel propeller shaft. The original lip-seal to the stern tube has been replaced using a flexibly-mounted packing gland (In 2019), therby reducing transferred vibration and consequent noise. 

 

Electrical Systems: 

A two battery system has been upgraded with two 110 A/hr batteries fitted in April 2019 and located beneath the Navigator's seat. 

 

Charging is by engine-driven alternator (with a multi ribbed Poly-V Belt) and a hatch garage-mounted P.V.(solar) panel (New in 2020) for trickle charge maintenance of the batteries while the vessel is on a mooring. 

 

A 220-240V AC shore power support system is fitted, with RCD and consumer distribution box fitted within the cockpit locker, and 13 Amp sockets fitted at galley and in the main saloon.

Tankage 

Fitted out in teak-faced plywood and hardwood cappings throughout, the Storm 33's accommodation was shared with the 'Cruiser' version's interior, but the deck fittings specification that was far better and of-course, with the fin keel and taller mast the sailing performance is significantly better. She offers a maximum 'seven' berths in three cabins. 

 

'Elsie-D's internal woodwork still appears clean and fresh (her teak and holly flooring is particularly attractive) and her vinyl linings have been replaced or re-fitted as necessary in three main areas (Forward cabin; main saloon and aft cabin), albeit not fully replaced in one go and present well currently. Original cushions were finished in 'Westerly Salmon Velvet' fabric, but the saloon's cushion coverings have been replaced in a nicely toning fabric. 

 

A three outlet, diesel-fired, hot air heating unit by Eberspacher is fitted. 

 

Forward cabin: A double berth, without re-course to having to infill the berth, there is room to stand abaft the berth for access to a hanging locker to starboard and a wash basin to port. hot and cold water via a mixer tap. Deep storage shelves to hull sides. Light and ventilation provided by an opening for'hatch over. 

 

Main Saloon: A U-shaped dinette arrangement to port of the centre-line mounted table can be converted to provide a double berth, while a straight single berth faces the table from the starboard side. A factory-fitted hatch over the table is fitted to this particular Storm 33. All cushions incorporate their supporting panels to enhance access to the lined storage lockers beneath the seating and the cave lockers located behind the back rest cushions are also individually lined. 4 closed lockers on each side with open shelf over. The saloon's cushions have been professional replaced by Sander Sails of Lymington. 

 

Nav Area: A forward-facing, independent chart table is located to starboard with a dedicated nav. seat and provision for instrumentation outboard of the navigator an opening portlight over mirrors another located above the galley for good cross-ventilation. 

 

A half-height hanging locker, located aft of the chart table's seat is provided with a plastic, draining base to accommodate wet 'oilies'. 

 

Galley: L-shaped and located to port of the companionway (to be on the downhill side if hove to on starboard tack), the galley has been fitted with a replacement gas cooker with oven and grill (Neptune 2500), with flame failure devices to both burners. A top-opening cool box is located between cooker and the twin sinks which are provided with hot and cold water via a mixer tap, with foot-pumped manual back-up pump on the cold water supply. Opening portlight over cooker. 

 

Aft Cabin: Located to port side, the aft cabin's double berth extends across the centre-line behind the engine space, with hanging locker and two portlights for light and ventilation. The outboard/hull side vinyl linings appear to have been replaced, while the inboard side of the cabin have probably been re-glued. There is one isolated area, above the foot end of the berth in which the vinyl is hanging a little loose.
