Accommodations

The interior of Laura Jane has an innovative design for Gozzard Yachts that is very distinctive and one of the reasons that owners choose Gozzards.

Forward Cabin
The large forward cabin doubles as the main saloon and as a private sleeping cabin.
- The settee seats swing easily together over the cocktail table to form a comfortable walkaround centerline queen-size berth.
- Forward of the settee is a full-width hanging locker with storage below.
- There are bookshelves and lockers outboard of both settees.
- The cocktail table has storage under the lid.
- The cabin sole under the table swings forward to allow access to the bilge and more storage under. Each half of the top swings up to form the support for the large dining table. The large tabletop stores behind the starboard hinged seat back. 

Galley and Navigation Station
Aft is a U-shaped galley to port and a smaller settee and navigation station to starboard. There are numerous storage lockers in the area. 

Head
 Aft to starboard is a large head with a separate shower stall. There is access on the aft bulkhead of the shower stall to mechanicals like oil filters (also access from under a cockpit seat). There is an option for freshwater flush for the head.

Aft Cabin
This cabin has a large custom mattress that extends under part of the cockpit, a large hanging locker, and additional storage drawers. 

Additional Features:
Built-in screens for all hatches and ports. The companionway has built-in screens from both the front door and the overhead opening. Upholstery is cream-colored Ultra Leather. 

Interior joiner work is American Cherry. Cabinet doors are louvered and drawers are all dove-tailed and installed with sliders. The main bulkheads are fbg cored with cherry veneer faces. All trims, fiddles, face frames, kicks, and doors are solid cherry. All furniture and cabinets constructed with plywood have the end cuts finished with solid stock. Cabin soles are teak and basswood (tongue and groove) are made from solid stock and not veneer. 

Teak-hinged companionway doors with louvers and built-in lock set.

Deck and Cabin

The decks were designed with ease of use in mind. They feature wide low cambered side decks with substantial bulwarks for sure footing in heeled conditions. These bulwarks also build substantial strength into the Hull/Deck joint area.

The cabin truck is low profile to reduce windage and increase visibility from the cockpit. The cabin sides are sloped to allow opened ports to be drip-free. The multi-leveled cockpit permits good access to the side decks, a sizable bridge deck, and excellent draining characteristics.

Sails and Rigging

The Gozzard 41 features an enhanced, traditional cutter rig. To simplify sail handling, it employs a self-tending staysail on a curved traveler track ahead of the mast, eliminating the need to manually tack both headsails or use a club-footed staysail.

Further simplifying operations, the conventional mainsail traveler has been removed, with mainsail leech control managed by a solid boom vang and a cascade purchase system, all led aft into the cockpit for easy access.

Thanks to the wide chain plate base, the slots can remain more open, reducing backwinding and minimizing the need to center the boom when sailing upwind.

The G41’s sail plan is designed to be generous in size, fully utilizing the advancements in hull design. The staysail’s aspect ratio and size have been increased to address the wind gap at 15-18 knots, where many crews furl the topsail entirely. This combination of a self-tending staysail and mainsail makes the G41 easy to handle in higher winds while still being powerful in lighter air, allowing all sails to be used effectively.

Hull and Deck Construction

Hull painted Awlgrip Flag Blue with white decks.

The Gozzard 41 hull design work was started in 1999. The G41 design developed a finer entry and flatter run aft than her sistership.

The hull is molded using female production tooling and features a sandwich-cored construction, as is standard with all Gozzard Yachts. The core material, Corecell foam from "SP Systems," enhances panel stiffness, strength, and impact resistance, while also providing sound and thermal insulation, all with an excellent weight-to-strength ratio. The weight saved by the cored laminate design is redistributed to increase skin thickness on both sides of the core, resulting in a laminate that SP engineers describe as “robust in the Gozzard tradition."

All main or structural bulkheads are constructed using FRP laminates for superior strength, low relative weight, and total rot resistance. All bulkheads are glassed to the hull and later deck before the interior trim work is installed.

The deck, like the hull, is finished with Cook “Buffback” Off White gelcoat and constructed using a molded FRP sandwich design, incorporating ½", ¾", and 1" SPS Corecell. In areas where equipment will be installed, the core material is removed to create a solid laminate. The deck flange is solid and reinforced to a thickness of ½”. Additional reinforcement is applied in areas with high stress, such as cleat, mast step, and winch attachment points, as well as at corners.

The hull deck joint is bedded in 3M 5200 and bolted on 6” centers with 5/16” stainless steel machine screws with ny-lock (aircraft) nuts.

The rudder shaft is 1.5” diameter 316 stainless steel. The rudder is built from two molded ¼” thick FRP half foils (skins). A stainless steel web is welded to the shaft forming a stiff back that is heavily glassed to one of the foils. The foils are then cored and assembled together. 3M 5200 is used around the stainless shaft where it exits from the rudder to help prevent water from migrating into the rudder along the shaft. The cosmetic joint between the two halves is glassed over and faired. Once completed, the rudder is essentially a solid structure with no voids.

All thru-hulls below waterline have Forespar Marelon ball valves.

The FRP skeg is made in much the same way as the rudder except considerably heavier in structure

Full-length FRP rub rails are installed approximately 18” below the cap rail with a 316 stainless steel cap. The rails are secured to the hull with self-tapping screws into an area of the hull that has been specially prepared for that purpose. The rails are intended to be replaceable should they be damaged protecting the hull. The corner of the hull forward of amidships is also protected with a stainless steel strip.

The extended fin keel is built with an exceptionally durable solid laminate, which forms the top three-quarters of the keel's profile. The lead ballast is attached to the bottom as an externally mounted extension, running the full length of the keel's base. This design offers excellent protection against abrasion and puncture in case of accidental grounding while maximizing the righting arm and providing a large lightning grounding plane.

All pulpits, stanchions, etc. are manufactured (welded) using hand-polished 316 stainless steel. All assemblies are designed to be removable.
· The bow pulpit is fitted on the sprit platform with the aftmost legs secured to the bulwarks of the deck. The LED bow navigation lights are mounted on recessed mounting.
· The stanchion bases are mounted to the side of the bulwark (not on the teak) for improved rigidity with stainless steel backing plates. Where access to the standard backing plates is difficult due to interior confines, such as behind the icebox, the backing plate is permanently installed with threaded holes so the bases can be removed from outside.
· The large diameter upper portion of the double lifeline is located 31” above the deck.
· Port and starboard board gates with adjustable pelican hooks.
· Chain plates are bolted through the hull with stainless steel backing plates complete with dedicated lightning ground attachment points.
· Two - 3 loop and two - 5 Loop stainless steel handrails are positioned near the side decks on the coach roof.
