Whether it’s refurbishing the deck or accessories below deck, winter is definitely one of the best times to renovate your boat. We have selected four ideas you can choose from to freshen up your boat during the winter. Here they are!
Boat renovation accessories – Deck jewelry
Choosing Bamar for deck equipment means relying on a company that installs its accessories aboard some of the world’s most important boats. Bamar collaborates with very important shipyards, such as Maxi Dolphin whose MD62ab we see in the photo, equipped with GFSE 12 furler and RLG Evo drums. From hydraulic and mechanical vangs to roll-up systems, Bamar produces true technological gems.
Renewing the boat – Compact waste
Litter on board is quite a problem, especially when you plan to be at sea several days without touching land. With the Obelis OB100 compactor, you have solved the problem of trash on board. If you are at sea for several days, you simply insert the bag with the dustbin, and within seconds its size is reduced by up to 70%. It absorbs little current (4 amps) and is small and light (43x23x38cm, 14 kg).
Renovating your boat – Easy water on board
Energy recovery desalinators work, as the name of the company that produces them suggests, by reverse osmosis. This process used for desalination uses a semi-impermeable membrane, through which salt water is pushed by pressure intensifiers, to obtain fresh water. Osmosea’s desalinators are very compact, easy to install, and are powered directly from on-board batteries.
Renovating your boat – Goodbye teak, welcome resin
Choosing a synthetic material such as Refit Style’s Cooldeck resin instead of teak provides you with more than one advantage. And a product designed to last, so it is very resistant to wear, grease and shock. It is customizable and does not absorb, so it is much easier to clean. In addition, thanks to high-precision cutting machines, custom machining and upholstery can be made, even for accessories such as tables and seats.
