While bringing our new Zuri, a Lagoon 450 Sport Top home from her birthplace in France, we set sail on a leg from Caicos on the way to Georgetown in the Bahamas. We had some escorts playing in our bow wave. The sail plan is main and genoa, going a comfortable 10.2 Knots in about 12-15 Knots of wind. It's a little rough out, but we are having a blast!

🪢 Sunday Boat Tip [1/52] 🪢 Did you know that you can use common cooking oil to keep your boat toilet’s flushing system smooth and easy flushing? It’s really simple, you just take a tablespoon of the oil you have at hand and pour in into the toilet. Then, in empty mode, you pump a few pumps and then it’s done. Do this 1-2 times every week and you’ll soon see a difference! The oil will keep all the internal rubber parts soft and prolong their life span, meaning less shitty maintenance for you 💩 We usually do this in the evening so it can sit for the night 😴 Extra tip: If you have canned food that’s preserved in oil (like sun dried tomatoes or mushrooms) it’s perfect to use the oil that’s left in the can before throwing it out. Be sure to save this post to remember it the next time you see your boat toilet 🚽
