Dismasting

There are several important factors to keep in mind when dismasting a traditional ketch for a full refit.

It’s crucial to first evaluate the current state of the rigging. Are there any indications of wear or damage? Is the rigging built of sturdy materials? Does it comply to current safety requirements? We can decide whether or not new rigging has to be placed by assessing the condition of the old rigging for seeing whether it can be reused.

What are the goals of the refit? Are you expecting to improve the yacht’s functionality, raise its level of safety, or merely modernize its look? Knowing these goals will enable us to identify the improvements that are required to attain them.

Third, how are the hydraulic systems on the yacht? Do they need to be changed or are they in good condition? In order to ensure the hydraulic systems on the boat are performing at their best, it’s important to have a strong understanding of them.

And finally, what is the refit’s budget? We can prioritize the required upgrades and make sure the refit stays on budget by being aware of it.
