An Antares 44 catamaran, damaged by Hurricane Dorian in 2019, undergoes a structural assessment to determine its viability as a refit project.0:39 The vessel sustained significant damage when another catamaran landed on its starboard side, creating a large hull breach and crushing the cabin top.3:00 Previous repairs include a patched hull, a repaired cabin top, and rebuilt engines.3:22 An inspection using a thermal camera and moisture meter reveals localized moisture in the deck and keels, though the hull remains largely sound.3:59 The mast is bent and requires replacement.11:40 The boat features rack-and-pinion steering and a galley-down layout, with accessible bulkheads due to a lack of interior liners.11:52 Despite the extensive labor and financial investment required, the potential owners view the project as a rare opportunity to acquire a high-quality catamaran otherwise outside their budget.16:51 They plan to begin cleaning the vessel to facilitate a more thorough inspection of hidden areas before finalizing the purchase.19:10
