Hey you two many thanks. We hope that new route you’re planning has the Pacific in it 😁 can’t wait to catch up and check out your sweet new ride 🤙 best wishes.
Will be interesting to follow the refurbishment. Looks to be a sound, comfortable, and well thought layout. Like re landscaping a overgrown garden you are pulling all the weeds and replanting. Wiring and plumbing will be challenging but satisfying when finished.
Mate, is that the Chris White Hammerhead named "Avalanche"? It has been 3-4 years ago when it was for sale down in San Diego/or L.A. area. The skiiper who owned it and I had 3-4 decent conversations about the sale of this wonderful tri. He was blowing this boat out for around 225K. And incredibly low price for one of the best trimarans on the planet. I had the money for straight cash. The reason I backed off? When he told me he spent 80K for a bullet proof main sail from North Sales. Made in England to specific requirements for a very knowledgeable sailor. My wife would cut my cajones off if I had bought that. He said Avalanche's sails were getting pretty much past their prime. What a boat.....I wish you only the best. I'm sure she is still a rocket even with simple dacron. Fabulous live aboard. He bought a HH out of Asia.
LOOKS AWESOME. After all the really cool changes you made to the Old Spirit I'm interested in what you'll do to the Hammer Head. No doubt she'll be lighter and sail better than she has ever before.
I am so pleased (and a little envious) at what you're doing-- she is a magnificent boat-- I am shocked at how neglected she is after I saw her in 2020. Have you seen the interviews done with the previous skipper on Drake Paragon? I looked at trying to buy her this time around but had a feeling there was a HUGE amount of work to be done and I just don't have the time (I'm also Sydney based). I really look forward to seeing what you do with her! Phil
Nice she’s definitely well known in the trimaran world. We have seen those interviews they were a great series. You’re correct she’s in need a huge amount of work. Plan is to take it slow and get the necessary bits done as we can 👍
it is amazing how people get more stuff - I used to go through mine every 6 months - I got shipwright to add 2 hatch's at aft end of cockpit seat's so could climb in there as no access via cabin
I'm so glad you guys found this boat ( and vice versa ). A great match. She really needs loving care and restoration to her full potential. She sure needs a heap of work but I'm sure it will be worth it.
If I remember correctly Greg Foss owns a 54 Hammer head. On a passage from the east coast of United States to Iceland he averaged 15 knots. Pretty impressive for a cruising boat. Would love to know what material the new Spirit is constructed from.
Thank you for the stem to stern tour. It looks like excellent ventilation. Just for fun you should measure how high she rises at the waterline once you off load all that “Just crap…!” Multiple watertight bulkheads in the amas sounds like a good safety feature. Do you have any specs on the ama to main hull length and buoyancy ratios? That is one lucky boat to get a full restomod.
Chris White is still around and would probably be happy to catch up with you and discuss the specs etc. He seems to know all of his boats intimately and he's a friendly and helpful guy IMO
Hmmm...... which race boat is getting a new bigger carbon mast & needs someone to do them a favor and take the old unloved carbon one off their hands ? 🙄😇

Ah! She's absolutely lovely! Lucky to have found you too. Can't wait to catch up! Cheers!

What a great boat! Although I miss the old Spirit this one will be exciting to see come along.
We miss her too but the new Spirit sure has some potential to be just as cool 😎
G’day,the more I see,the more I love this boat.Best wishes as you work through the different tasks you have to do to make this home sweet home 🙂
Thanks for the comment it’s going to be fun that’s for sure! 👍
AWESOME 🎉
Thanks 🙏
Hi jase it's jase 😁
Will be interesting to follow the refurbishment. Looks to be a sound, comfortable, and well thought layout. Like re landscaping a overgrown garden you are pulling all the weeds and replanting. Wiring and plumbing will be challenging but satisfying when finished.
Many thanks! Appreciate the words of encouragement 🙏 some days we really need them 😁
Mind blown. Really looking forward to see you gettig ready and sail this boat.
Awesome glad you approve 🙏 stay tuned we’ll keep the vids coming. 🤙
happy refitting! She looks awesome already. Love her sensual voice too :)
Many thanks 🙏 she’s got a sweet voice hey 😁

Haha cool story luckily a new set of sails is half that amount 🤙
Can only imagine all the hard work in refreshing everything. Great to see all the progress being made and cant wait to see whats to come.
You and me both!👍😁
LOOKS AWESOME. After all the really cool changes you made to the Old Spirit I'm interested in what you'll do to the Hammer Head. No doubt she'll be lighter and sail better than she has ever before.
Thanks 🙏 that’s definitely the plan. Simpler faster and lighter. Less noise more signal 🤙

It is amazing how we accumulate things! Definitely fun stripping things down. Cheers 🤙
Guys keep making videos of the repairs! I love it!
More to come! Got plenty going on here 👍

She really needs loving care and restoration to her full potential.
She sure needs a heap of work but I'm sure it will be worth it.
awesome
Thanks 🙏
hi from tasmania, awesome stuff great to see you with another boat thanks for the update
Hey Tassie many thanks 🙏 glad you’re enjoying them 🤙
Cool .
I love these Tri's there is a series of vids on a sisters ship if you haven't seen it I'll dig up the link for you.
Yes they were a great series we have seen them. 🙏
@@TrimaranSpirit what series, I haven´t seen them...
When you’re out clubbing just say you have a HH54…all the wrong people will be impressed😂
😂

Sure she’s strip plank cedar mainhull, epoxy and e-glass with balsa core decks and amas and carbon akas. A real mix 😁
Thank you for the stem to stern tour. It looks like excellent ventilation. Just for fun you should measure how high she rises at the waterline once you off load all that “Just crap…!”

Hi unfortunately we don’t have too many specs on her yet but hoping that will grow over time. So far waterline is up three inches 👍
Chris White is still around and would probably be happy to catch up with you and discuss the specs etc. He seems to know all of his boats intimately and he's a friendly and helpful guy IMO
@TrimaranSpirit
Who designed the "New Spirit" and where was she built? ...... looking fwd. to many leisure cruises.
I believe the hammer head 54 is a Chris White design.
Spot on!
I like a boat without all the woodwork hiding essential systems.
Us too 👍
Make more videos
On the way 🤙
It is difficult to image her having the same light air performance as Spirit - you were spoilt!
It is but hey you never know 😁
Is that the Hammerhead 54 Avalanche ?
Yep sure was 👍
Hmmm...... which race boat is getting a new bigger carbon mast & needs someone to do them a favor and take the old unloved carbon one off their hands ? 🙄😇
Hmmmm not sure but if you know someone that has a spare carbon mast let us know we’d love a bit more HP 😁
