🎙️ Bahamas Bound... with a Detour ⚓ Update from Salty Abandon, checking in from Steinhatchee, FL — not where I planned to be. My Raymarine Wheel Pilot failed again about 2–3 hours out of Carrabelle, so I hand-steered nearly 10 hours here instead of reaching Tarpon Springs. 😅 Upgrading to something tougher next — let’s talk what happened, what I learned, and what’s next. 🎧 Playlist: saltyabandon.com/SaltyPodcastPlaylist #SaltyAbandon #SaltyPodcast #Sailing #Raymarine #WheelPilot #Carrabelle #Steinhatchee #TarponSprings #BahamasBound
#shorts Off grid living requires attention to detail. If a towing line breaks it could mean losing a very valuable piece of equipment for those living aboard a boat. Knowing a few basic knots turned a potential headache into a minor fix. Also, setting up a redundant system saved me from having to buy a new dinghy! My advice is ALWAYS have backup lines if you tow your dinghy. Also, I should have put in abrasion guards of some sort but I didn’t! Off grid living requires planning ahead. This was a clear example of just how important that is.
