What this video covers
A catamaran owner maneuvers his vessel into a Grenada boatyard for a seasonal haul-out, navigating tight channels and shallow reefs in heavy wind and rain. The operator uses both engines in reverse to maintain position against variable gusts while waiting for the travel lift.▶ 5:07 Once hauled, the boat undergoes a high-pressure wash to remove algae and barnacles before the application of two coats of antifouling paint, with a third coat applied at the waterline.▶ 12:56 The yard secures vessels to large concrete blocks or steel ground screws to meet insurance requirements for hurricane-season storage.▶ 15:14 The process includes leveling the boat on the hard to ensure proper deck drainage.▶ 19:53 The owner coordinates the work with yard staff, including a final inspection of the hull and drainage systems before moving personal gear to temporary shore-side accommodation.
