Quick video to say sorry for the lack of a video this week but we’ve been super busy. Because we’re departing for the Bahamas!!! So excited for some warm weather and we’ll be in touch once we arrive in about a week!

For our Garcia Exploration 45 we decided to stick with the standard gas cooker, to maximise our autonomy in places where solar performance is suboptimal. When we do have plentiful electricity we’ll use induction and microwave cooking. Did I say we’re in a rolly anchorage? It is rolly, but it’s a well protected marina. A ripper English Channel winter storm started on cue in the middle of the night and hasn’t let up all day. Carolyn and I were up at 2.30am to check what was banging (the anchor in the bowsprit) and to stop our tender from becoming an aeroplane. Carolyn’s mooring line cleat hitches were all holding well - the day dawned and we were still in the same slip, which is the plan.

🪢 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 🚽
