Marine diesel engines face a constant battle against corrosion. A highly effective method for long-term protection involves using lanolin grease on engine components. This simple application creates a reliable barrier against rust, though caution remains essential around electrical parts like the alternator. Proper maintenance strategies like this one can be the difference between a smooth voyage and costly repairs for anyone living and cruising on a boat.

Cardio at 70+? You bet. Onboard Wahine, I naturally get upper body workouts, just by doing what I have to do. However, cardio and leg workouts are not as significant. So, now that my foldable bike is fixed, I’m riding the hills around Buren Bay, with Wahine moored just behind me. Life on a boat doesn’t offer much cardio, especially in the summer heat, so I’m glad to be sweating again (yes, even in Japan's humidity!). As my doctor once said: “If you’re sweating, you’re winning.” That’s the goal today, and most days. Never too late to move. Never too late to sweat. Never too late. 📍Filmed in Buren Bay, Japan 🇯🇵 🔔 Subscribe for more life-on-the-water inspiration, longevity tips, and slow adventure stories from Japan and beyond. #boatlife #japan #travel #liveaboard
