Day 5 of our Christmas calendar takes us to the aft head-our little onboard bathroom that does it all! ? Here's how it works: ? Running water thanks to our water pump, so you can brush your teeth or take a shower just like at home. ?? ? Sit-down shower: A handy feature when the boat is moving, making it much easier (and safer) to shower under way. The biggest difference? The toilet! We use a manual pump toilet, which requires a bit of technique (and sometimes a quick tutorial for guests). ? Some boats have electric toilets, but we like the simplicity and reliability of our manual setup. It may be compact, but this space is fully equipped for life onboard! What's your biggest question about boat bathrooms? Let us know in the comments! ? ? See you tomorrow as we continue our boat tour! ?

Day 6 of our Christmas calendar takes you into the engine room, where all the heavy-duty magic happens! ? Here's what you'll find in this surprisingly spacious area: ? Main engine: - A Volvo Penta TMD22 with 78 horsepower, running like a champ with just 2,000 hours. - We're planning a full service before setting sail next summer. ? Fischer Panda genset: - This powerful generator provides AC power whenever we need it-perfect for life at sea. ? Port bulkhead: - Packed with many of our electrical Victron components, which we'll show you in a future episode. It might be tight compared to a house, but for a boat, this is luxury! Got questions about our engine room or how we keep it running smoothly? Drop them in the comments! ? ? See you tomorrow as we explore more of Vela! ?
