What’s the latest news from our sheds in Cape Town? The deck of the new SW108#01 is now married to the hull, and our first 108' hybrid yacht is taking shape day by day! The 'dry fit' technique combines the need to keep the boat 'open' as long as possible, facilitating the assembly of elements onboard, with the need to structurally join the deck to the hull and - above all - to the bulkheads. Next step: systems lay down and furniture assembly. Stay tuned. Follow the link and discover our project: https://www.sws-yachts.com/yachts/sw108/sw10801-under-construction/
After an ice storm and a late-night show, we return to our sailboat to see what winter left behind. Frozen lines, rigging checks, and a full winter boat inspection to make sure everything survived. After the storm, we bring in provisions for the weekend, wake up to quiet marina mornings, make coffee and a warm omelet bowl with music playing in the background, and take care of a failing electrical outlet onboard. This is real winter sailboat life—maintenance, problem-solving, and slowing down together. If you’re into sailing vlogs, liveaboard life, or learning what winter boating is really like, this episode is for you. ⚓ Subscribe for honest sailing life, boat maintenance, and cozy moments from the galley. Cheers! - Rodney & Cyndi
