It’s been a bit quite. I’ve been really sick, as you can hear in this video😅 but here is one of my latest projects, not finished but hey… you gotta start somewhere! Little back story, I’ve had this huge solar panel sitting in my living area for over 2 months now, not connected just in my way. So I decided it’s time to get it installed but mounting on the canvas roof without damaging the canvas seems tricky, so I decided to build a hard top out of plywood and fiberglass and fit it onto the frame. Means I can easily mount the solar panel and other stuff like outdoor light and more fairy lights ✨ Thanks for the help As a complete newbie to the sailing world, I had no idea where to start my liveaboard life and I had so much to learn. But first things first. I bought a sailboat, an old wooden ex fishing boat, build for rough seas, 40 ft long and over 15t heavy. But before the sailing life begins I have to do a lot of work, from re caulking to placing planks and wood rot, repainting and anti fouling as well as turning the whole inside into a beautiful homely living space. Come along and help me figure out how to live on a boat and how to sail.

Oggi la barca ha assorbito le nostre attenzioni con voracità. Fare dogana, disormeggiare, circumnavigare l’isola, ormeggiare, cucinare, pulire in vista dell’arrivo della crew, scendere a terra, tornare a bordo, disormeggiare nuovamente, entrare in laguna, quasi litigare con l’operatore del ponte levatoio perché durante l’ingresso in canale (24nodi di vento, canale stretto) chiude il ponte prima del nostro passaggio, ormeggiare a un gavitello ma andarcene perché ci incagliamo sul fondo (nulla di grave, era melma), quindi ormeggiare di nuovo, infine fare una spesina. E il lavoro? Ovviamente abbiamo avuto entrambi call. DISCLAIMER PONTE: alle 17:00 apriva per consentire l’ingresso in entrata. Ore 17:00 apre. Noi siamo già in coda dalle 16:45. Alle 17:02 siamo dietro a due barche. Approcciamo l’ingresso in canale con raffiche di vento piuttosto forti. A un tratto (17:02) vediamo che il ponte inizia a chiudersi. Cosa?! L’ingresso in canale è imminente. Una volta entrati non avremo spazio per fare manovre. Andrea si butta a destra. Facciamo la barba agli scogli e ai frangiflutti mentre mi precipito al VHF per chiedere cosa diavolo stesse succedendo. La voce ride e mi dice “adesso non passi” Cosa? “Nella vita va così, qualcuno deve pagare e stavolta tocca a te, Captain”. (Storia vera) Ma cosa sta dicendo? Noi vogliamo solo entrare. Alla fine ha riaperto (17:07 e 24 nodi di vento) e mentre passavamo ci parlava ridendo. Boh. Adesso sono le 20:30 e il letto sembra il paradiso. Domani dovremo seguire alcuni lavori, tra cui portare a riparare una vela e trovare la SIM di IridiumGo, il telefono satellitare dal quale all’andata avete seguito il tragitto e i messaggi in bottiglia. Adesso vi saluto, muoio di sonno! A domani 😴
