cat boanerges

Around 1975

Around 1975

late 90' , waiting for a second life

A complete overhaul and refit

removing gelcoat, applieing epoxy and Awgrip

June 1999, Boanerges ready for a second life

nov 1999, I buy this boat in 5 minutes and have no regrets

The main cabin as it was in 2001, cosy but not practical enough

The main cabin as it is now, much more light and space to move.

Lighthouse Daan, Iso 3 seconds, powered by Emma. the coffee grinder will be replaced by an electric winch suited for solo sailing

the Anderson electric winch

leads anchor winch shut off when not in use, to prevent chain from galvanic corrosion.

the copper lightning protector was not painted with coppercoat

Prepared to sail

not suited for this climate

The horrible Schenker is changed to a Spectra. No problems afterwards. many schenkers go in st.martin from board

Mounting of the hard-top

To solve the problem I build a hardtop with Nida-core/glas/epoxy

In San Martin I fitted a roof to protect against sun and rain

this is great. robby points upwind 5 degrees higher

the 3 years old (Dutch) chain is completely gone

after 9 month searching, at last I imported from the US a new high tensile chain. kuna deliver the chain in kuna yala
