Both the hull and the deck is made of fibreglass. Generally, a hull made of fibreglass requires only a minimum of maintenance during the sailing season.
The boat is equipped with 3 cabins, 6 berths, a galley, 360.0 liter fresh water capacity, toilet facility and 80.0 liter waste water capacity.
The Broom 10.70 Sceptre has been equipped with different engine alternatives.
Alternative 1:
The boat may be equipped with dual inboard Volvo Penta TMD 40B diesel engines at 270 hp (201 kW).
The transmission is a shaft drive. A shaft drive will in the long run require less maintenance than other types of drive e.g. a sail drive.
Alternative 2:
Broom 10.70 Sceptre may be equipped with dual inboard Volvo Penta MD diesel engines at 300 hp (223 kW). Cruise speed is 12.0 knots. Max speed is 15.0 knots.
The transmission is a shaft drive. A shaft drive will in the long run require less maintenance than other types of drive e.g. a sail drive.
The fuel tank, which is made of steel, has a capacity of 720.0 liters (190 US gallons, 158 imperial gallons).
This section covers widely used rules of thumb to describe the sailing characteristics. Please note that even though the calculations are correct, the interpretation of the results might not be valid for extreme boats.
What is Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed?
The theoretical maximal speed of a displacement boat of this length is 7.8 knots. The term "Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed" is widely used even though a boat can sail faster. The term shall be interpreted as above the theoretical speed a great additional power is necessary for a small gain in speed.
The immersion rate is defined as the weight required to sink the boat a certain level.
The immersion rate for Broom 10.70 Sceptre is about 253 kg/cm, alternatively 1419 lbs/inch.
Meaning: if you load 253 kg cargo on the boat then it will sink 1 cm.
Alternatively, if you load 1419 lbs cargo on the boat it will sink 1 inch.
