Significant maintenance was completed in early 2022 at Ballina, covering key structural and operational areas. Works included replacement of sponsons and planking where required, refitting of okum and zincs, installation of a new cutlass bearing, and propeller balancing by RL Marine. The internal hull was repainted, safety gear upgraded, and the vessel antifouled prior to relaunch, ensuring she presents in working condition with essential systems addressed.
This matters because timber vessels that have had recent structural and maintenance work completed offer greater confidence, reduced immediate upkeep, and the ability to operate or enjoy the vessel without delay.
