Bobby takes ownership of Maverick, an Island Spirit 525e catamaran (hull number five), and completes the boat's first sail around the islands near Pattaya, Thailand.▶ 0:41 Export paperwork from Thai immigration and customs is pending, restricting movement to the local cruising area for roughly a week, so the sail is a shakedown within that zone rather than a departure.▶ 0:26 Before leaving the dock, Bobby checks the Victron solar system, which is producing around 2,800 watts across three units; batteries are at 33% by departure, requiring the generator underway.▶ 1:17 The electric drive system's proprietary Android-based monitor draws an unfavorable comparison to the B&G chartplotter for screen brightness in direct sunlight.▶ 3:55 Under sail in 11 knots of breeze, Maverick logs 6.7–7.2 knots — about 1.5 knots faster than hull number one — using in-mast furling main and a furling genoa, both operated from a single winch station.▶ 5:56 Bobby anchors off Colarn island in 8 meters of water with 40 meters of chain (5:1 scope) using a chain counter, then deploys a Highfield tender via a dinghy lift with stainless-steel ratchet-strap fittings.▶ 9:58 A beach dinner for two with drinks costs roughly $40 USD.▶ 14:56 Hull-to-hull speed improvement across the Island Spirit 525 production run confirms meaningful refinement between early and later hulls.▶ 6:47
