REFIT
A major refit was carried out in 2009 at a reputable Phuket yard under supervision of the Nordia Van Dam shipyard in Holland. The hull, superstructure and rig compete dismantled stripped and any oxidation spots in the deck (minimal) were repaired. A new engine was fitted as were completely new exhaust pipes for the main engine and the genset. A new shaft and heavy-duty 4-blade vari-prop were fitted. The hull was laid bare and inspected for oxidation (some minor repairs were done). The teak deck was totally removed and a new deck fitted on an epoxy layer added on the aluminium, with highest quality teak of 15mm thickness and up to 5.2 long planks. The new deck design completely matches the original layout. The hull, superstructure and rigging were re-painted in the 2009 refit, according to International Paint system’s strict specifications. The rig was also completely dismantled, surveyed, serviced and painted at the Nordia yard in 1998/2003 and again fully surveyed during the 2009 refit. All sails were renewed and upgraded to radial cut and cruising laminate. All winches were serviced. A new Raymarine integrated navigation system was installed with two 15 inch multi-functional displays added to the pilot house. Two “Ocean series” Lewmar hatches on the pilot house roof were added and the plexiglass of all other Lewmar deck hatches was replaced with thicker material. All rigging ropes and mooring lines were inspected and replaced where needed. In July 2013 she was last dry-docked for 2 weeks, in this period new antifouling was applied (Trilux 33 Pro 2 coats) and new anodes were fitted, the prop was serviced according to manufacturer specifications and new prop anodes where fitted, the rudder and steering were serviced, the genset was overhauled and minor service jobs were done by our crew and staff from a professional yard.
