Bilge Pump Chronicals

As you know (if you have been following) when I first got to the boat it was flooded after #hurricane Milton. That was due to a busted bilge pump & dead batteries.. so to ensure that it doesn't happen again I replaced batteries and the bilge pump. When I'm ready for the haul out I will be putting in some back up pumps just in case right under the battery bank. #sea #fypage #ocean #sailboat #viralvideo #adventure #liveaboard #patreon #florida #boatmaintenance #diy #fyp

WIND? Singlehanded Docking Stern To with Lazy Lines Nick in this video shares valuable insight on handling winds while performing a stern-to docking manoeuvre with lazy lines. =========================== Transcript Now if it was a really windy day or if I was getting blown away right now I would drive boat against that stern line or control line so that I had control and was not drifting closer to the dock especially if I had a wind on the nose. So we just keep pulling this out and I keep watching the stern of my boat. Now that I'm pulling the boat forward I don't have to worry about the boat heading backwards there and I've got that control line on so I can't go too far. So I'm not going to worry about trying to pull this really hard right now I'm going to get it firm. Get it on. And then go down and deal with my other stern line and the other bow line. =========================== Filmed and Edited by Mahina Hathaway and Nick Hathaway, 45 Degrees Sailing Looking to sail in Croatia?
