As a complete newbie to the sailing world, I had no idea where to start my liveaboard life and I had so much to learn. But first things first. I bought a sailboat, an old wooden ex fishing boat, build for rough seas, 40 ft long and over 15t heavy. But before the sailing life begins I have to do a lot of work, from re caulking to placing planks and wood rot, repainting and anti fouling as well as turning the whole inside into a beautiful homely living space. Come along and help me figure out how to live on a boat and how to sail.
What do you do when you arrive in the harbor and you like to lower your rolled code-0 sail and it won't come down? There is a twist in the line of your sail. At the top of the mast of 21 meters high. The twist is so strong, that trying to turn the sail the opposite site won't help. Only one solution: put on the bosun's chair and hoist to the top of the mast to untwist the line. That's what I did to make the twist go away, so we could lower our sail successfully.
