 Our Fiji Refit! 

Haul out

Having a 4.2m draft makes finding a yard able to lift us tricky!

Even at high tide the channel leading into the basin was too shallow for us, so we tied a huge inflatable tube underneath one side of our hull in order to heel us over to reduce our draft! 

 

We managed in Vuda Marina in Fiji thanks to the amazing staff who made this possible for us! They even dug us two narrow cyclone pits for our keel and rudder, thanks Vuda!

Our first job when we arrived in Vuda Marina in Fiji was to remove our 30m carbon fibre mast before cyclone Yasa hit in December 2020.
