Seeing ALL Of Our Catamaran For The FIRST TIME!! (MJ Sailing - Ep 340)
The day has finally come for us to move out of our undersized (and now shredded) paint tent, and get our catamaran into the light of day.
When we first arrived to Kentmorr Marina back in 2020, we told them we'd only need to be in the tent for 6-9 months, just enough to get all the important pieces on and close her up enough that she could move out an into the work yard. Well...not only did we have the issue of not being able to get our cabin top bonded together and even sitting in place until 2 years after the first pieces arrived....but it was just so comfortable in there that we didn't want to leave.
The time has come though that project need to push forward, which can't be done inside the tent. It didn't allow us enough room to bond on the sterns or bows, and to be honest, I think we just needed that extra little push to get us focused on completion.
Thanks to C&C Ventures, with their hydraulic lift, we were presented with an easy way to move this vessel, which is currently 38 ft (11.5m) long and 24.5 ft (7.5m) wide, out of our tent. And considering we only have inches to spare on each side, we needed something that could lift from underneath and come straight out. I still don't know how we lucked out with the marina manager being a part of a company which could do exactly that for us.
With the tent cleared of junk, and the yard cleared of boats, we were able to make the move and be placed just next to our old spot, but now in the open air. Immediately she was set down at just about level, although we'll continue to check that over the next few weeks.
Another big milestone completed, and we can't wait to see what the rest of the year has in store for us!!
We hope you enjoy!
