From Production Catamaran to Dream Boat: Refit Projects That Will Change Everything
We’ve been hauled out in New Zealand for a while now, working hard on upgrades that will give us more freedom, comfort, and confidence once we’re back out cruising. In this video, we share the latest progress on several major refit projects:
⚓️ Rigging Issue & Fix: What we discovered and how we’re planning to address it before heading offshore again.
⛵ Power System Upgrade: A complete overhaul of our electrical setup to help us live off-grid more comfortably and reliably.
🔧 Cabin-to-Workshop Conversion: We’re transforming our port-forward cabin into a full-time workshop so we can handle repairs and projects anywhere in the world.
Each one of these refit projects brings us closer to our goal: turning a standard production catamaran into our fully customized liveaboard dream boat.
