Teak is actually very thin, mostly 1/4” or so. No good! But, wow, there’s actually little to no water getting through the decks. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/1589323431345-LZCVMALVD4EKHGP01PSU/IMG_1394+%281%29.jpeg SV Trinity Refit 2020 - Leaking Ports… Wow!

So this was the method. Hammer in these wedges, slowly, earnestly and the ports slowly let loose. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/1589323671739-T65Z16IVPNGZV2B92WSI/IMG_1397.jpeg SV Trinity Refit 2020 - The Mason Ports do not have any exterior fasteners…. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/1589324313179-9VJAL94ED8C6ROF4TUJ6/Resized_20200504_103419.jpg SV Trinity Refit 2020 Now, onto the renewal… Check out those glass decks! Plus, we made the choice to add a base to the chainplate covers, diverting water around the connection. We then had new custom chainplate covers fabricated…looks much better! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/1589327390037-6TR7AZJNBZ8LV175ADU3/Resized_20200504_103435.jpg SV Trinity Refit 2020 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/1589327389525-LN9EQ8M0RRAM2ONZ1NSO/Resized_20200504_103348.jpg SV Trinity Refit 2020 https://www.svzube.com/adventures daily 0.75 2025-02-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/1616122089246-DIAFBM3NY6T5NTJW3PYC/DSC04003.jpg Adventures - Summer Fun - 2016 Short sail with friends in the familiar waters of the San Juan’s and Gulf Islands. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/1616121978886-NQZ78A0U02ZYQ59XB5OJ/DSC00775.JPG Adventures - 2015 Beat to Barkley (or Not) A freak hurricane in Mexico in July resulted in a failed attempt at a quick beat upwind to Barkley Sound. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/1616122391086-WWEIAF831O7MMTHUXMR4/20140810-DSC_4729.JPG Adventures - 2014 Desolation Sound Meet-up The American, Canadian, and Swedish cousins unite! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/1616122946069-BW5XV5X46UPYSSK8GB3M/09Jul_2009Summer_156.JPG Adventures - Highlights 2007 - 2011 We had a sailing life before SV Trinity. Here are highlights from our journeys up Johnstone Strait, to the head of Butte Inlet, and throughout the nooks and crannies of the Salish Sea. These memories were captured aboard the trusty vessels, Paramita, Carpe Diem, Osprey, and Aquarius. Thank you, small and might vessels, for the safe voyages and fond memories. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/1616124582074-KGRPHE67JI3MLKTHAOTA/2007+09+27+062_edited-1.jpg Adventures - Quadra Island Paramita and Red Baron set sail for Quadra and the Discovery Islands. https://www.svzube.com/refit-2020-1 daily 1.0 2025-02-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/177375d0-61fd-4492-b6b5-44cc88ba4791/IMG_6619.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/ac66ce84-4c8f-4438-a618-4502f78965c0/1AB39A01-F4FE-494B-BA44-2845077B55E5_1_105_c.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/d918f0a5-4e12-4919-995d-17ff1c5b64f6/IMG_1749.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/6fdf5d6d-0da3-4908-be65-3c6940758450/IMG_2789.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/33208ad6-bfe9-4e9f-92cc-ef66611b7847/IMG_2791.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/1616124453856-RL5R692PSMHJ776D1G2K/Paramita_small.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/1587401778645-X26CR8ULMJCI5R346GA4/DSC06811-2.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9db88cd1f455056856cdf0/b598bff7-eba3-4633-9766-b09fe13487f7/IMG_1854.jpeg
