A Beneteau Oceanis 50 requires significant rigging modifications to clear a travel lift for a scheduled haul-out. After measuring the vessel and the lift, the owners determine that the stern clearance is insufficient due to solar panels and mast-mounted equipment, including a Starlink antenna and wind generator.▶ 10:40 To safely enter the lift, the crew removes the forestay and staysail, opting to enter the lift bow-first with the assistance of marina staff.▶ 9:43 The vessel is currently undergoing engine maintenance, including the replacement of a corroded heat exchanger sourced from Yamaha and professional servicing of the saltwater pump, which requires lifting the engine block.▶ 1:23 Additionally, the crew transports the anchor chain to a local facility for hot-dip galvanizing at a cost of approximately $3.50 per kilogram.▶ 19:43 The haul-out proceeds successfully with the marina’s service boat towing the vessel into the lift, avoiding the need for the boat's own engine.▶ 13:39
