This is one of the things we love about old wooden boats… For less than $7000AUD you could own this incredible piece of history Sure…. there is some work to be done, and yes it will be ongoing… but it’s not a rebuild…it’s a tidy up, and on the journey you will make new friends, learn new skills and develop a deep satisfaction from your role in Australia’s sailing heritage.
The modern Catamarans are made for comfort and not so much for sailing, that means they project a very large beam surface and the anchor cannot be effective with more than 15 kts of Crossing wind. To make the anchor effective you must upgrade to maybe 50 kg witch is unrealistic for this kind of boats, so make sure you protect your leeward quarter with a round fender or even better a permanent fender that can protect from any kind of accidental touch to the dock during your backing as well.
