After a break in the US we're back in Trinidad, getting things done aboard our sailing home! This episode we tackle one of the insufficient boat repairs from our extended warranty haul out, using fiberglass and epoxy to reinforce a bulkhead. To do the repair we were lucky enough to get input from Rolf, who you may have seen on Spear It Animal or Huub Vlogs.

After saying farewell to our hurricane season home in the Caribbean island of Trinidad, I set off to visit somewhere completely different - rural Michigan. There I got the unexpected surprise of being able to explore what would have to be the best car museum in America! The impressive Gilmore Car Museum showcases an incredible collection of over 400 cars, including rare and vintage models, muscle cars, and even a few surprises. From classic American roadsters to sleek European sports cars, this museum has it all. As someone who's not even a car enthusiast, it was impressive, so join me as I take you on a guided tour of this automotive wonderland, sharing fascinating stories and interesting facts about the cars on display, a visual insight into the history of the American automobile industry! 👉 SUPPORT THE STORY TELLING ⛵ Gain access to our member only area: https://www.travelsketchsailing.com/join-in 😎 Tip jar: https://buy.stripe.com/6oE8A1d9Yabj4OA9AB After backpacking Asia, road tripping Europe and doing a bit of van life, we’re now exploring the world aboard our Leopard 45 catamaran.

With our catamaran safe and secure on the hardstand there's boat work happening every day! This episode we're replacing a critical part of the anchor windlass, upgrading the interior with DIY boat curtains, and getting some things done on our tender, an unusual dinghy which is designed to be a rugged, remote area exploration vessel.

Built in Trinidad by the American military, it's spread across two levels cut into the top of the hillside. The higher level has the ruins of an immense dish, while the lower section is a huge, abandoned building complex. As an abandoned military station, it makes for some unique urban exploring. If you're in Trinidad and want to check out the Tracking Station it's best to do it sooner rather than later! Even since this video was filmed more of the main roof has collapsed, and we suspect the dish itself may not have many years left.

To celebrate reaching 15K, this video is available to everyone for the first time! During Carnival the streets of Marigot came alive with the colour, rhythm, and energetic vibe of the Caribbean. It was an opportunity for me to explore more Caribbean culture, enjoying the colorful Carnival parade. Having spent Carnival in Trinidad last year, experiencing it St Martin was something new, with it's own traditions and Caribbean Carnival history. The parade was an impressive display of energy, with King Momo, moko jumbie stilt walkers, whip cracking, drumming and costumed troupes, who performed their carnival dance moves along the route. The day ended at Galisbay Carnival Village, with a live music concert featuring local and international acts, and fire breathers!

Now that our Leopard 45 Catamaran is out of the water and things are more settled, work is well and truly underway. We have lots of boat jobs planned for this hurricane season, some big, some small. This episode outlines some of the boat work we need to do, after the extensive warranty repairs that were previously done on our sailboat. It also gets into one of the first ones; a cracked frame that seems to be from a flexing bulkhead - can you guess how many repair attempts it's already hard?

Having a medical emergency aboard is something no liveaboard cruiser wants happening on their boat, so when it impacted our catamaran we were lucky to be in the shipyard in Trinidad. What seemed to just be a sore limb was actually a life threatening medical condition that needed to be urgently addressed. Big thanks to the staff at Valley Medical Center and Port of Spain General Hospital for the treatment and care, it is greatly appreciated!

The hurricane season is a time where many liveaboard cruisers in the Caribbean region choose to lift their boats out, storing them safely on land. Given the work we have left, we decided to do exactly that, choosing to give Peake Yacht Services in Trinidad a try. Their 150 ton travel lift lifted our 45ft Leopard Catamaran with ease, with a team that worked professionally and efficiently. This video shows you the whole process from start to finish and gives a quick insight into the shipyard that will be home for the next 6 months.

As we travel around the world we always love finding abandoned places to urban explore. After sailing into Trinidad & Tobago, we cleared into the country then motored our live aboard catamaran to the uninhabited island of Chacachacare. One of Trinidad's western islands, it's a great anchorage for visiting yachts. It's also a formed leper colony. Despite being to Trinidad before we'd never explored the abandoned building including the convent and church, which were used by the nuns who cared for the lepers that lived here. This was the perfect time to go see a place some call haunted, the ruins of which are slowly being overtaken by the jungle.

The first time we arrived in Trinidad we thought it would be for 3 months... 21 months and more warranty repairs and mistakes than we ever could have imagined, our Leopard 45 relaunched. Now, it's time to go back! Starting in the live aboard cruisers hub of Le Marin and Sainte Anne in Martinique, we pointed our sailboat's bows south, taking the ocean side of the Caribbean island chain. It is our final passage of the 2024-2025 Caribbean Season, the last sail before we're hauled out to finish what Leopard / Robertson & Caine didn't or didn't do properly, go over the boat to make all of the changes or additions we want before the 2025-2026 season begins, and maybe even say goodbye to SV Liger for a bit, to finally bring some long overdue plans to life.

As the Caribbean hurricane season approaches it's time to start heading south! The episode begins with a surprise storm slamming the St Martin anchorage; high winds, rough seas, dragging boats - not good for someone who went out the night before! 😳 It's a quick insight into how unexpected boat life can be, even with all of the modern weather forecasting technology available. Then, join us for the main event - a 24-hour sail from Saint Martin to Guadeloupe aboard our recently repaired Leopard 45 catamaran.

We finally did it! Our first scuba dive off our Leopard 45 sailing catamaran achieved here in Saint Martin! The Milwaukee stick pump: https://amzn.to/4iNrN2g Trinidad Pro Performance Review Video: https://youtu.be/0qzm7i7meW4 After setting up our Bauer Junior II compressor, filling our first tank and putting the dive gear together, we took the plunge under the boat. From spotting an eagle ray and barracuda to using our gear to clean the hull before sailing, it was the perfect entry into liveaboard scuba diving. Now we just need to decide where our next dive adventure will be! (Hopefully not an anchor retrieval 😅). This was a huge milestone in the adventure, and something we've worked towards for years. We’re PADI Open Water certified, and this was our first dive since 2019, having carried all this gear with us since Europe 22.

This episode kicks off with us sharing some great news about our deck! Like many production boats around the world, the non-skid on our deck was created using the Gibco Flex-Mold system. Significant damage was done to our deck by the warranty teams in Trinidad, and in trying to find a solution we ended up being able to meet JB, who until very recently owned Gibco. We'll also show you a bit of what's been happening around the boat, with Tynan needing to deconstruct the watermaker while Teesh splices a whole new lifting bridge for the tender.

For those of you who have watched before, it not only shows how the crossbeam saga continued, but also gives you an insight into why we have such respect for Nino's skills.

It's not clickbait, the crossbeam of our Leopard 45 catamaran was cracking out of the hull... WATCH THE REBUILD PROCESS HERE: https://youtu.be/ct0kAWI7h44 We set out on this journey with a dream to explore the world from our very own sailing home, choosing to do it young because time and youth are two of the most valuable currencies. Instead, we have spent years fighting to have the boat fixed, going through hell and coming out of it out of pocket and having paid with our time and health. The companies that did it seem to think that's okay - what about you? Like many issues on our "new" yacht these warranty repairs dragged out over the course of years, with the ultimate root cause proving once again to be disgraceful workmanship by the boat builder, Robertson & Caine, who are now building the new Leopard 46 in the same facility that built the Leopard 45's, including this hull.

This week I share a warranty issue found down in the port bilge - a crack in the hull above the keel. What's unique about this one? Well it was addressed at the very end of last year by the second repairs team which was entirely made up of Moorings and Robertson & Caine staff. As such, it gives an insight our experience of the quality of work and behaviour of staff from these companies much more recently than the initial catamaran build. This is quite a candid video, with some behind the scenes footage that captured our thoughts, opinions and feelings on the warranty saga. 😎 WANT TO SUPPORT THE PRODUCTION OF THIS SERIES?
