With its paintwork completed, this 1993-built American Offshore catamaran is ready for interior installation and rigging.
What began as a simple restoration project took a left turn toward disaster, but has a happy ending thanks to BRP Marine Custom, the painting and restoration side of Boat Repairs Plus in Denver, N.C. Several months ago, a South Carolina-based owner of a 1993 American Offshore 2600 sport catamaran decided it was time to bring the boat back to life. According to Chris Uzzolina, who works at Boat Repairs, Plus, the owner also decided to let an acquaintance he believed was qualified handle the paint job.
The owner was less than pleased with the finished product.
