We went to take our sailboat out the Ft Pierce Inlet for our second time for a shakedown sail. We had sail issues so we had to come back into the inlet with an outgoing tide and incoming east wind. We did not know that combination made the inlet rough as we are new to inlet currents and tides. Made for a fun surfing ride back into the inlet.

They told me it would cost $16,000 to get Buster the Bus back in shape. As a 60-year-old woman tackling this project, I knew there had to be a better way. Today, I’m talking about the steering coupler. The shop estimate? $900. My actual cost? Less than $50. I’m not a professional mechanic, and I’m not here to show you a step-by-step tutorial. I’m here to show you that with a little research and some grit, you don't have to be at the mercy of a shop's massive markup. I’m doing the "impossible" repairs for a fraction of the price, and I'm taking you along for the ride as I save over $12,000 on this build. If I can do this, you can too. In this video: The breakdown of the $16,000 "reputable" shop estimate. How I found a steering coupler for under $50. Why I’m choosing to do the work myself on Buster the Bus. #BusLife #WomenWhoBuild #BusterTheBus #BudgetBuild #Skoolie #MoneySavingTips #DIYOrDie
