Climbing Our Sailboat Mast Using a DeWalt Drill. We had a spinnaker mishap!😂⛵️ Thanks to the awesome crew at S/V Swift for dropping their dinghy in the water 🌊 and cruising over to save the day! All I want for Christmas is an electric winch handle! 😂 @dewalttough

The persistent anxiety surrounding vessel maintenance expenses is often overstated. A direct comparison can be drawn to standard automotive care: the cost difference between paying a shop for an oil change and performing the service yourself is significant. The same principle applies here. When we undertake tasks like annual hull painting and comprehensive engine servicing, the resulting fiscal preservation is substantial. For instance, the material cost for two gallons of necessary coating is currently around $230. That annual expenditure is a fraction of what professional labor charges. #OwnerQandA #YachtMaintenance #CustomYacht #BlueWaterYacht #YachtRefit #LuxuryYachtTour #YachtLens #PacificNorthwestYachts #BoatWalkthrough #RobinsonModifiedMonk #ExpeditionYacht #UnitedYachtSales #TrawlerYacht #ElizabethRuth #YachtMaintenance #BoatCosts #DIYBoating #VesselUpkeep #SaveMoney #BoatLife

Part of our 2 week vacation in the waters of British Columbia - we made our way to Desolation Sound. The farthest north we ventured was to the Octopus Islands, anchoring there for a night. The trip in was beautiful passing through The Whole in the Wall passage at slack tide. The hike trailhead was a quick dinghy ride away to Waiatt Bay. The trail to Newton Lake took us about an hour to get up to the top with a few scrambles on the way up. Everything was well maintained and the DIY nature of the signs was picture perfect - they were a big help. The lake water was warm and clear. We got there in the late afternoon so the sun was hitting just right. This was the highlight of the trip for the kids - until we arrived at Prideaux Haven the next day!
