Some of you might know that I bought a boat a few months ago. She’s a beautiful old timber fishing boat originally from Melbourne, build in 1979. I’ve started turning her into my dream home, the perfect little cosy liveaboard. It has been the most amazing adventure so far and I decided to share it online for anyone who is interested ⛵️ It’s been a challenging few months so far. Full of ups and downs, set backs and new jobs that weren’t even planned. But it has also been super rewarding to figure it all out on my own (and the help of some friends). I have no background in building or carpentry or no knowledge at all about electrical work and boats in general. So I have been learning so much and I can’t wait to set sail :) #sailingstormy

This 2004 Zodiac Hurricane inflatable with a jet drive is an exceptional vessel for exploring the rugged and remote wilderness of British Columbia. Built with military-grade durability, its heavy-duty Hypalon tubes and rigid hull offer strength, buoyancy, and safety even in unpredictable coastal or river conditions. The compact design allows easy trailering and launching from remote beaches, forest access points, or shallow tidal creeks that larger boats can’t reach. The jet drive propulsion delivers outstanding maneuverability and safety in shallow or debris-filled waters such as estuaries, glacial rivers, and inlet backchannels. Without an exposed propeller, it can glide over submerged logs or rocky shoals that define much of BC’s wild coastline and freshwater systems. This makes it ideal for wilderness photographers, anglers, or adventurers seeking hidden coves and untouched terrain. Lightweight yet incredibly stable, the Zodiac handles swells and chop efficiently, while its fast planing performance reduces travel time between remote anchorages. The simple, low-draft setup also requires minimal maintenance compared to traditional boats. Whether navigating the misty fjords of the North Coast, the salmon-rich rivers of Haida Gwaii, or the serene stillness of Desolation Sound, the 2004 Zodiac Hurricane jet offers unmatched versatility and confidence in Canada’s wild waters. The pontoons have recently been serviced in 2022, with new VHF, AIS, chart plotter and radar in 2022 as well. Boat also includes a triple access trailer.
