A catamaran in deep need of repair

A few years ago I acquired this little beauty - we will call her Mystic, cause someone else decided to call her that and wrote it on the side of her. Mystic is a Maricat 4.3 Catamaran in need of a serious clean and repair.

Mystic - My Catamaran in need of repair

So here starts the process. I hadn't had a huge amount of experience in sailing, and FAR less experience in fibreglass repair, so I spent hours trauling through google, looking for websites and forums on Maricat maintenance.  Unfortunately, there really weren't many. I did glean a lot of helpful advice though from the Maricat.net forum where the "Old Salt's" were all too willing to help out with tips, troubleshooting and advice.

My next post will contain some of the helpful cleaning advice I received from the gents at the Maricat.net forum.
