In 2023, the following work was carried out with no expense spared:
Full standing and running rigging replaced, including new deck hardware.
Full topsides and cabin repaint.
Full professional rewire.
New instruments - Plastimo Contest 130 compass, Raymarine depth, new VHF radio, LED cabin lights, solar panel with charge regulator and battery monitor.

This year I was in the Wooden Boat Festival in Hobart & after extensive research, I have a full history of "Superstition". Dating back to 1975 when she was built.
