Decided to go with Olly's request and clear coat his cabin roof top. Not finished yet but looking good!

The azure waters of the Mediterranean on SV Outnumbered

Enjoying the sunrise on SV Outnumbered

Olly is training for #foilingweek at Lake Garda next month. He will be competing in the #SFT pumpfoiling division. Shayne has helped him build a new board for the event. It should weigh 700g when finished which is incredibly light. They still need to finish off the last skins before they can weigh the finished product. Every night Olly is on the water, practicing for speed and agility around the buoys. We even made a t-shirt for the event so we can support him. If you would like to support Olly you can check out his "The Jandal" tee on our youtube channel.

Cruising sometimes means getting creative. The marina had allocated us a rather small dock. Since there was a healthy sea breeze that afternoon we decided to add a bit of insurance with an extra mooring line around the bollard 😅

We took Outnumbered (Gunboat6602) cruising along the French Mediterranean coast. What a dream trip!

Top coat going on and it looks so beautiful. I think Lana del Rey is the perfect feels for this moment. Hard work and attention to detail pays off

Traditional boat hatches are heavy and expensive. Plus we were struggling to find something strong and stiff enough so here is our solution. Look out for our upcoming videos on design and building these incredibly light and strong deck hatches

Breaking stuff on Paikea - have you seen our video on our box beam infusion implosion yet? We got a heap of comments - Why did we decide to infuse the part? Why not a solid foam beam? Why don't you use a pourable expanding foam? So this week we have put aside our repair video in order to answer all the questions and give you a bit of insight into why we did what we did.

A sneak peak of what we have been up to in real time. If you think polyester resin is only for the rough and ready look again! How nice does our new floor look? It weighs 7.8kg, which is a quarter of the weight of the original timber floor. Plus, it's laminated into place, making everything stiffer and stronger
