Take you on a tour of my 1976 Pacemaker 36’ SF. She’s and oldie but “goodie” for me. Hope you all have great boating season!

Boat work never ends but spring cleaning sure does build up the excitement of getting back in the water!

Don’t let the #winterblues take your joy away. Finding hot springs on a cold day. It’s not snow, I’m walking on sunshine. #vanlife

Nothing like sitting cozy by the ocean while having tea and listening to the sounds of the sea. It’s especially pleasant when in your own vanbuild campervan. Loving this #vanlife getaway

Installation of insulated windowshades. The magnets made it super easy to install. No tools needed, just open the box and attach to windows.

Today I sailed home my new to me 1972 Bristol Carvel 22. I purchased for a great deal on eBay, if I told you how much you wouldn’t believe me so don’t even ask . Let’s just stay. It was an awesome deal. So I purchased her without ever looking at the cabin. I saw her from the shoreline, and I fell in love with this vintage sailboat. Now it’s time to start the motor for the very first time and head down the channel in East Greenwich Bay. Then it’s off to Narraganset Bay towards her new slip.  This was a lovely first day of ownership. Come along with me on this journey with Sailing Vessel PAI NEY formally SV WHITE DOVE. Thank you for watching another episode of Solitude And Sailing. Fairwinds and following seas to all.
