She is powered by twin 3196 CATS.  Both have been overhauled. The port has 2955 hours (1850 SMOH).  Starboard has 2957 hours (1852 SMOH).  Each produces 600 HP for an easy 22k cruise.  Top speed 28k.

The Cockpit seating has been redesigned and recovered and a custom-made teak table was installed.  The companionway door has also been rebuilt using teak.  A Fusion Entertainment Center with four JL Marine Speakers was also added to the cockpit.  


The Master State Room was redesigned, and a new Custom Zeno Mattress was installed in 2020.
