Yay. We are finally setting sail from West Palm Beach to Grand Bahama Island in Northern Bahamas. We managed to get our paper to leave the US stamped at the airport, received our Covid negative test results, applied to the Bahamas Health Visa, got accepted and paid for it. We only have 5 days from the date of testing to get to the Bahamas so that's why we're leaving tonight. The wind is going to be light but hopefully we get a little more. Stay tuned for more #shorts videos and the usual Thursday episodes.

Varnishing can be a labour of love: On our last boat I applied 11 coats of varnish to the tiller and the results were fantastic... However, it took lots of time which I no longer have. If you're short on time, you can achieve decent results using the technique in this video. Will it get you on the cover of Classic Boat Magazine? Absolutely not! Will I make your boat look a lot better with minimal work? Yes! Subscribe for more handy sailboat DIY tips! Chris ??
