Episode 475 : Stress at very slow speeds 😂 Hello Friends, On this episode I haul up and beat my way out of the anchorage and get on the wind to make my way north 19 miles to Ao Po Marina and Boatyard. We had great winds for sailing as we navigated the boat traffic until about noon when the winds all fell away and I found myself drifting backwards with an outboard that refused to work.....

Episode 474 : The Hard Push North Hello Friends, It was finally time to try and make my way to a boatyard to build Triteia's new rudder and unexpectedly repower the boat after the success of the GoFund Me Campaign that Victoria oversaw. I will never be able to thank everyone enough for the unbelievable kindness and support. The campaign looked to raise $6500 for a new long shaft outboard, a new dinghy and funds to help with the rudder build. Fans and followers of the channel contributed $59,500 dollars in 20 days before we end the campaign. And while now I had the funds to properly prepare Triteia for the rest of the circumnavigation, I still needed to get to the boatyard without a working engine 😬 If you enjoy the channel please "Like" the videos and Subscribe so you don't miss any future episodes.

This live stream will be in real time,,, meaning its in REAL TIME... and not part of the regular weekly episodic videos. I thought it would be of interest to some of you to join me as I break down the engine and pull it out of the engine bay and get it into the cockpit. I might go as far as lowering it down to the parking lot but that will be determined by how smoothing the pull goes. I am going to attempt to do this with live streaming software which will allow me multiple cameras at once so you can see diffrent aspects of what is happening.
