Custom Sprague

ACCOMMODATIONS:

IRON WILL has a functional and elegant interior finished to a high level.  Joinery is varnished walnut and used for paneled cabin doors, doors, cabinet trim, drawer fronts, and cabinet doors.  Cabinet faces are rattan for ventilation.  The sole is solid teak boards separated by black staving over marine plywood.  Drawer and cabinet pulls are custom brass “IRON WILL” castings.  Countertops are white Corian.   Cabinet sides, bulkheads, and hull sides are white painted marine plywood.  Coachroof insides painted light green for contrast.  Overheads are white laminate panels.  Red/white touch LED dome lights and reading lights are well placed.  The hull is fully insulated with spray foam making this steel yacht warmer in cold weather and cooler in hot weather than any fiberglass yacht.  Headroom is excellent at 6’ 6” or more throughout.  

The pilothouse is entered through port or starboard sliding 24” x 68” sliding door.  A 6” high threshold above the side decks keeps water out.  A 42” x 19” watertight Diamon Seaglaze door with hinged overhead hatch is to starboard and leads to the boat deck.    A Springfield Marine black swivel chair with fold down arms and footrest is mounted on centerline at the helm and high enough for good visibility over the bow.   Nav/com electronics and controls are within arm’s reach.   Visibility from the pilothouse is nearly 360 degrees with five 2’ x 2’  vertical windows forward around the radiused house.   These windows are visor-protected for glare.  A 6’ 3” x 24” wide bench seat runs along the aft end and mounted high for good forward visibility by the crew.  The cushions are blue Ultraleather.  The bench can also be used as a pilot berth with leg space aft of the dry stack casing.   Three chart drawers and a 28” x 22” pull out chart table are to port.

MECHANICAL SYSTEMS:

IRON WILL has a full beam, stand up engine room below the raised pilothouse.  Entry is through a watertight 20” x 62” door in the forward head.    Metal non-skid grating is on either side of the main engine and two steps down from the entry door.  The engineroom is well lit with LED strip and dome lights.   Foil-faced acoustic insulation covers the hull sides, overhead, and bulkheads.   A custom metal worktable with 1” high fiddles is mounted on an Artman seven drawer tool cabinet.  Storage shelves are outboard and above the work bench.  Headroom measures 6’ 6” at the bench.

The Lugger main engine is low and well forward in the boat providing a near horizontal shaft angle with the propellor fully protected behind the full keel, just forward of the top and bottom supported rudder.   A welded aluminum ladder and platform over the engine provides access to the starboard side of the engine room.  This extremely dependable, long-life engine utilizes a John Deere block, dry stack, and keel cooler for maximum dependability.   A Lugger wing engine is to port and aft of the workbench.  This 70hp engine is also dry stacked and keel cooled and used exclusively to power a large hydraulic pump.  Cooling water for the hydraulic system is driven by an engine-mounted pump.

A Northern Lights 10kw genset is to starboard of the main engine and housed in a sound enclosure.   An extra layer of acoustic insulation was recently added to this enclosure.  The genset uses a sea water pump for cooling with exhaust injection and a water separator on the exhaust to minimize noise.   The Echotec watermaker is outboard of the genset mounted up high on the hull size.  The Webasto furnace, start and service batteries are forward and aft of the genset.

Diesel fuel capacity and range were one of the big factors why IRON WILL was selected for the Northwest Passage expedition.  There are four welded steel diesel tanks integral to the hull.  All are fitted with sight glasses for dependable level reading.  Large “man size” inspection ports are fitted at each tank for cleaning and inspection.   A 500 gallon tank is just aft of the engine room on each side and a 200 gallon tank is further aft, between the salon and aft stateroom on each side.  A fuel transfer/polishing system and dual Racor filters on the engines ensure clean diesel.  The owner reports a burn rate of 2.6 gallons per hour and a range of 4,000 nm.  Nine diesel jerry jugs are also included to stretch the range if desired or allow fueling in remote locations where there are no fuel docks.

All machinery was selected for maximum dependability and ease of maintenance.  Bronze Groco though hull valves are flange-mounted on steel pipes with insulating rubber gaskets.  Wherever possible, pumps and other equipment is soft-mounted to minimize noise.

The hydraulic system was designed and installed by H.A. Thompson Inc. in Seattle a company specializing in work and fish boat systems.  Two large hydraulic pumps (one on the wing lugger, and one on the main engine) provide hydraulic pressurized hydraulic oil which is used by the anchor windlass, bow thruster, stern warping drum, and “get home” motor.  The get home motor is to starboard and forward of the main propellor and is fitted with a folding propellor.  In calm seas it will move IRON WILL at approximately four knots.

DECK & HULL:

IRON WILL has a painted white steel hull with black antifouling bottom paint, and 4” wide blue boot stripe.  A 4” wide rub rail runs around the entire hull at deck level and is capped with 1 ½” square UHMW black plastic.  This is the ultimate protection from pilings.  15” tall raised bulwarks help keep waves off the decks and crew aboard.  Freeing ports at low points on each side drain water.   Double lifelines run from bow pulpit to stern railings through welded stanchions atop the bulwark.  A 5” wide caprail is welded atop the bulwark.

The decks and bulwark insides are painted light grey.  Nonskid is added to the deck paint on side decks and other areas where one might stand and appreciate traction.  The superstructure is aluminum and joined to the steel decks with a TriClad/Detacouple explosion-bonded plate.  The forward trunk cabin is 19” tall and fitted with a welded ½ pipe eyebrow trim around the top edge.  The hull design has significant sheer making a high/dry bow with lower side decks for dock and tender access.  Decks and cabintops are well cambered for strength and water shedding.  The forward pilothouse is vertical and radiused.   Antennas and liferaft are located atop the pilothouse.  The two stainless steel exhaust pipes exit a faux stack.  Five forward windows are fitted with wipers.

A lounge deck is aft of the pilothouse and 34” above the main deck.  “L”-shaped seats are located atop storage lockers.  Welded railing provides back support.  The Bullfrog tender sits atop the rear trunk cabin on a custom welded aluminum cradle.  The tender is launched using the tackle and electric winches on the mast and boom.  A stern storage locker is accessed in the aft deck through two Freeman watertight hatches.  This locker is lined with wood boards in way of hull bottom and sides to protect the foam insulation.  The rudder post and steering gear are located in this locker.
