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! 🎵 Music by Sergio Prosvirini from Pixabay #YouTubeShorts #Explore #TravelVlog #Vloggers #DailyLife #ChristmasCalendar #Vlogmas #ChristmasOnBoard #Beneteau44cc #Sailing #Liveaboard #LifeAtSea

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. LOA: 24’6″ BEAM: 9′ POWER: 315HP Yanmar 6LPA-STP Diesel coupled with a Hamilton Marine Jet Drive (450 Hours) HULL: Aluminum
