Check it our for yourself! - https://amzn.to/4iNrN2g When Trent first suggested getting a Milwaukee Stick Transfer Pump for the boat, I honestly thought it was a waste of money. But I’m happy to admit I was completely wrong. We've had massive rainstorms here in St Martin — over 100 gallons of rainwater ended up in our dinghy in just one day. Normally, it would have taken 20+ minutes (and a lot of effort) to bail it out by hand, but with the transfer pump it was emptied in about 3 minutes, no heavy lifting, no drama. The pump runs on the same Milwaukee M12 batteries we already use with our other tools and can be used in other areas of the boat, like the water tanks, bilges and lockers. In our opinion it's definitely one of those tools that saves time, saves effort, and just makes boat life easier. #MilwaukeeTools #BoatLife #ToolReview #LiveaboardLife #SailingGear #DIYBoatProjects Prefer to support the channel as a 1-off?

Dalla Gomera sono andata all'isola di Hierro con la mia barca a vela Maneki. Sono circa 40 miglia nautiche con vento da Nord. L'isola di Hierro (ferro in spagnolo) e' quella piu' piccola dell'arcipelago spagnolo delle Canarie e anche quella piu' a sud. Era l'ultimo lembo di terra 'conosciuto' dalla nostra civilta' prima della grande distesa di acqua dell'dell'oceano Atlantico e per questo i cartografici avevano deciso di iniziare a contare la longitudine della Terra proprio da qui. Hierro convenzionalmente era il 'meridiano zero'. Le antiche mappe partono infatti dal 'meridiano di Hierro'. Sull'isola c'e' una sola marina, La Estaca e un porticciolo di pescatori (La Restinga). Essendo molto vulcanica, non ha spiagge, quindi e' difficile ancorare. Pero' ho trovato un posto, nel Mar de la Calma, costa meridionale. Come di deduce dal nome l'ancoraggio e' calmissimo. Unico inconveniente: niente campo internet e almeno 4 ore di sentiero impervio prima di raggiungere il primo villaggio...fuori dal mondo appunto.

Infinity Expedition is now in Mexico, our second stop of the current EarthFlag journey from Panama to Brazil. Once in Brazil, we will sail into the heart of the Amazon rainforest and back from there directly to the UN Climate Change Conferences COP30 in Belem. To increase impact, we launched Sail4Earth and a whole Flotilla4Change of sailing ships are joining us at COP30 to help protect nature with uon.Earth, promote the EarthFlag, and raise awareness for the importance of including Indigenous people and their knowledge of the world's largest rainforest when making decisions about Earth's climate and the environment. Our old sails, which remember Antarctica well, are worn out beyond repair and we need new sails to keep the EarthFlag sailing; North (Northwest Passage 2018), South (Antarctica 2022), West (Amazonas 2025), East (Oceania 2026). Sailmaker Doyle generously offered to produce sails for Infinity at only 55% of the usual cost, but we still can’t fund new sails alone. We need your support to raise US$ 30 000 for a new mainsail, mizzensail, and headsail. Every penny, share, comment & like means the world to us, literally! More about Infinity Expedition: Infinity Expedition has a rich 20-year history of wild expeditions around the world. Since 2018, we carry the EarthFlag to the farthest reaches of our planet on a mission to raise awareness for its beauty and need for protection. We established uon.Earth, enabling everyone on the planet with a smartphone to protect m² of nature with ease. We explore some of the wildest and most remote places on Earth showcasing the fascination and fragility of their various incredible ecosystems. Over the years we have produced several TV shows & films, co-created projects like EarthFlag, EarthToday, Uon.Earth, Sail4Earth, and we have joined forces with many more to amplify our message. Amazonas Expedition After raising the EarthFlag North (2018) and South (2022), we are now sailing towards Brazil. There, we will venture deep into the mighty rivers of the largest rainforests left on Earth, the Amazon. We will meet with Indigeneous people from there, listen to their stories and wisdom about this over 55 million-year-old rainforest and bring their voices to the COP30 Climate Change Conference. Sailing to the Global Climate Change Conference with Flotilla4Change Flotilla4Change, an initiative supported by their global ambassador Greta Thunberg, organizes a flotilla of boats sailing to COP30. Infinity is the flagship of this flotilla, symbolizing the mission with the EarthFlag. Sails4Infinity Our sails are worn out beyond repair and we were offered generous support for a new mainsail, mizzensail, and headsail for Infinity. Doyle Sails, known for durable & technologically advanced sails, supports Infinity Expedition by generously offering a 45% discount for a new mainsail, mizzensail, and headsail. After discount, the sails still cost US$ 34 680. Luckily, our amazing community already raised US$ 4 744 through our own support page. We need your help to fund the remaining US$ 29 936 due by June 1st so that Doyle can start producing the sails in time for us to pick them up on our way to Brazil before hurricane season begins in June. Be part of the mission Every penny, share, comment & like count towards success! Our sails could be funded tomorrow if everyone following our journey would contribute $ 6, the same amount that it costs to protect 5 m² of nature together on our app uon.Earth. Please share this fundraiser with your friends, family and through social media. The more interaction and engagement our posts receive in form of likes, shares or comments, the more the algorithms will start showing our fundraiser to a bigger audience. Join us for Mission Earth. We are all in this together - when we belong, we protect what we love.

Want to support the podcast? http://patreon.com/SaltyAbandon Here is my engine after new fuel injectors installed, valves adjusted, as well as the following: new impeller and belt, new alternator belt, changed oil and filter, cleaned sea strainer, new fuel filters, and reinstalled air box and air filter. Going to run it 2 hours and change the oil again (because of the fuel that got into the oil). Still need to install new fuel lift pump. Still need to change the fuel lift pump. I realize not all of the items affected the problem but I'm mentioning them anyway for good measure. Sep 7-9, 2018. I was sailing from Orange Beach to Clearwater and onto who-knows-where. Fri, Sep 7th, leg was Orange Beach to Destin.  Sat & Sun leg was Destin to Clearwater (48 hour Gulf Crossing).  We had some engine troy ke after we left Destin. Seatow towed us 10 hours back to Orange Beach. 1988 Island Packet 27 in Orange Beach, AL Please subscribe to this channel.  I have two playlists:  Salty Abandon Full Length Episodes and Salty Quickies (this video is a Salty Quicky).
