Katrinka underwent a major / complete / total restoration in 2008. Her decks were removed (for repair) and to provide complete access to the hull interior. The hull interior was completely gutted with all / everything in the way of equipment, accommodations and structural components removed to make way for a complete new interior.

The hull interior then received an interior layer of closed cell foam and glass that worked to strengthen the hull structure but also provided insulative qualities to deaden the hollow sound of early fiberglass boats along with keeping the boat cooler in southern climes and warmer in the early spring and late fall of New England waters.

Once this improvement of the hull integrity was completed new floors, frames, bulkheads, partitions, systems and equipment were installed just as what would be done in the construction of a brand new boat.

Meanwhile the deck was also being completely restored. Wet balsa coring was removed and replaced with closed cell foam for the large expanses of the deck with solid composite blocking installed in areas where deck hardware would be installed.

The deck was joined to the hull by bedding and bolting the deck to a sizable sheer clamp and this joint was further strengthened by Teak toe rails also through-bolted to sheer clamp.

Once the cored fiberglass deck construction was in place the working deck areas were overlaid with a traditional teak deck was laid in the more modern fashion of vacuum-bagged & glued epoxy.

This reconstruction of the hull and deck of Katrinka combined with the rest of the restoration project has produced essentially a new vessel that can easily be sailing and providing owners with pride and joy for decades to come.

The interior of Katrinka is designed to be a comfortable and highly usable space both for offshore passages or for quiet times at anchor in a secluded cove.

Special attention has been made to assure the spaces down below are light and airy with a white painted color scheme (trimmed in Teak) reflecting natural light from hull ports, overhead hatches and numerous deck prisms along with ventilation provided by opening hatches, well-placed dorades and fans in every cabin. Well-ventilated for keeping cool, Katrinka is also equipped with diesel-fired hot air heating allowing her owners comfortable cruises to higher latitudes extended use into the shoulders of the New England sailing season.

Safety and comfort is also a special consideration to the below decks areas as the current (and hopefully future) owner has kept up Katrinka’s reputation as a competitive ocean racing and long range cruising boat. To this end the interior design maximizes comfort for long term use (a rested sailor is a good sailor) and safety with features like ease of access to critical equipment, thru-hulls, etc. and positive locking mechanisms making sure that locker doors, drawers and cabin soles stay in place in the roughest of weather,

The aft cabin is also well ventilated with the above mentioned opening port and hatch along with well-placed electrical fans and for cooler nights the aft cabin is heated as a zone of the diesel hot air heating system.

There is a true double berth (Pullman-style) to starboard with storage drawers under berth, storage lockers located forward and outboard and the fixed hull port right at eye level for early morning wake-up light. Opposite (to port) is a forward-facing navigation station / office space with full size chart desk with drawer storage under, navigational electronics displays forward, bookshelf for reference materials and an under-counter locker dedicated to storage of ship’s information and equipment manuals.
