The 39-ft Crowther Windspeed catamaran *Trade Runner* requires a haul-out in Lombok, Indonesia, after grounding on a reef during a 60-knot squall.0:04 The impact bent the port propeller shaft and damaged the hull, though the vessel’s solid fiberglass and Kevlar rail prevented water ingress.10:44 The crew uses a local excavator and a custom trailer to haul the boat up a shallow, narrow river channel, navigating a 3-knot current and 15–20 knot winds.1:21 Repairs involve removing the rudder box to extract the bent shaft, grinding out damaged fiberglass, drying damp foam, and applying multiple layers of fiberglass cloth and thickened epoxy to the hull.10:27 After sanding the hulls with 80-grit paper and applying two coats of antifouling paint, the crew re-installs the shaft and propeller.11:01 A post-repair sea trial confirms the propulsion system functions without vibration at 8 knots.21:15 The project concludes in five days, returning the vessel to the water for continued cruising.18:42
