Upgrades and refits

Wellington Yachts built many of its yachts, including CANVASBACK, with a passive flotation option.  Using nearly 600 cubic feet of closed cell foam in all the void spaces, she was designed to remain afloat even in the case of being fully flooded.  In this event, she is designed to sink only 8”, leaving the berths and pilothouse dry and maintaining stability and sailing capability.

She’s been very well maintained.  A 2012 refit included:  bottom job and complete topside paint, new LED lights, tricolor masthead light with strobe, searchlight and 12v Vetus bow thruster.  At this time the mast was removed, repainted and rewired.  

In 2014, a further refit was undertaken, which included:  new mainsail furling, new chainplates, new motor for windlass, new inverter, new injectors for the main engine as well as a new exhaust system.

2019 Refit included: 

    * new roller Mand and Genoa

    *new Chainplates
