It's time we hauled out catamaran out of the water to make a start on our huge boat refit. We haven't lifted Indioko out for more than four years so it's definitely overdue for some repairs and major upgrades. Our works list is terrifyingly long but we're optimistic we can smash our way through the to do list and get back to sailing and adventuring again before we know it.

First up, we have the challenge of leaving the marina and the incredibly tight space between two piling moorings where we've been tied up for the last few months while Brioni has been recovering. Then we'll motor down the river to Harbourside Boat Works which will be our new home for a few months while we completely change every system onboard out catamaran. We have got some incredibly optimistic plans and you don't want to miss a single step.

Thank you to everyone who has helped us get this far - it's a lot of work and we're doing our best not to be intimidated by it, but I guess only time will tell if we've taken on more than we can handle. Wish us luck!
