What this video covers
After more than 10 years of sailing, Brittany and Jeremiah prepare their Antares 44i catamaran Calypso for a major refit before setting sail again in Season 14.▶ 0:00 The centerpiece upgrade is a new blue water watermaker to replace the unreliable Spectra unit already aboard.▶ 0:38 A large new solar array is installed — a process described as taking significant work — along with four solar charge controllers.▶ 0:57 Calypso also goes on the hard for additional repairs and maintenance.▶ 0:46 The season preview shows the boat being shaken down after the refit, with some sailing footage including a tight passage between cement walls in high winds.▶ 1:26 The transcript is a season preview rather than a single episode, so individual outcomes and specific anchorages are not detailed. The practical thread running through the preview is the decision to replace aging or unreliable systems — watermaker, solar — before resuming offshore sailing on a 44-foot cruising catamaran.
