In 1989, four men sailed out of New Zealand aboard the Rose-Noëlle — a trimaran one man had spent 19 years building by hand, and named after a woman who had already been dead for 16 years. Four days out, she flipped upside down in the Southern Ocean. What happened next is one of the greatest survival stories the sea has ever kept: 119 days adrift, given up for dead, mourned and buried by an entire country… and then accused of making the whole thing up. This is the real story, not the Hollywood one. When I set out to tell it, the captain himself, John Glennie, now 85 and living in New Zealand, reached out to me. He shared his letters, his newspaper clippings, and his unpublished memoir — and most of what you'll hear has never been published anywhere. It's muddier, uglier, and more human than the legend. And it's exactly how it happened. If this one stays with you, that's just the sea doing what it does.

After three unforgettable weeks exploring Prince William Sound, it was finally time to make a decision... Stay a little longer... or leave while the weather was perfect for crossing the Gulf of Alaska. In this episode aboard our 80-foot steel schooner Alaskan Gypsy, we leave Whittier and begin working our way toward one of our biggest adventures yet... another Gulf of Alaska crossing. Along the way we revisit one of Prince William Sound's most beautiful anchorages, catch up on much-needed rest after three weeks of adventures with the kids, spend time metal detecting on a remote beach, explore the site of an old cannery destroyed during the 1964 Alaska earthquake, accidentally snag an old underwater cable with our anchor, photograph Alaska's commercial salmon fleet, prepare Gypsy for another offshore passage, and finish the day with what appears to be a sleeping humpback whale. Sometimes the hardest part of an adventure isn't rough seas... It's deciding when it's time to leave a place you love. If you're new here, welcome aboard! We live and travel full-time on our 80-foot steel schooner, sharing the reality of life at sea, Alaska cruising, remote anchorages, boat projects, wildlife encounters, and the incredible people we meet along the way. ⚓ Thanks for coming along.

Choosing the right antifouling paint is crucial for boat longevity. Avoid corrosion by matching coatings to hull materials, especially aluminum. Copper-based paints aren't universally suitable; always follow manufacturer guidelines for primer, barrier coat, and compatible antifouling. #BoatMaintenance #MarinePaint #Antifouling #BoatCare #DIYBoat

🦜 Dear Diary... This episode was a BIG one. After years of sitting silent, would my engine finally roar back to life... or had time taken its toll? While Graham nervously turns the key for the very first time, Rachel gets creative with a clever DIY no-sew blind idea that's still serving me well years later. We also start bringing my electrics back to life as instruments that haven't lit up in years suddenly wake up again. Join me as I continue documenting my restoration journey from my point of view, while gently roasting my two overly optimistic humans who seem to think every boat job is "just a quick weekend project." Most importantly, we're still on a mission to uncover my history. If you recognise me, know anything about my previous owners, where I was built, where I've sailed, or how I eventually ended up abandoned in Preston Marina, we'd love to hear from you. ⚓ Boat: Parrot – 37ft Steel Reinke Super 10 📍 Restoration diary told from the boat's perspective If you enjoy boat restorations, DIY projects, sailing adventures and a little cheeky humour along the way, please Like, Subscribe, and Share my story.

After two weeks on the hard stand smashing through boat jobs, we're getting closer than ever to putting Escapade back in the water! This week we freshen up the bottom with a new coat of antifoul, install our brand new headsail, varnish the cockpit table, oil the shower grate, fit a new Rocna stainless steel swivel, and tackle a long list of those last-minute maintenance jobs that always seem to pop up before splash day. It's amazing how quickly the to-do list grows, but seeing everything come together has us even more excited to get back out sailing.

In episode 2 of my Midsummer Sail series, I spot a sailboat on the lake and turn my boat around and head up the lake to investigate and say "hi". At first glance it appears to be a Sunfish, but in fact, it's a rare 1940s fiberglass "Beetle Boat (BB) Swan" rigged with a Sunfish sail. The "BB Swan" is essentially a fiberglass version of the famous 1920's wooden "Beetle Cat" sailboats. The "BB Swan" was designed and built by Carl Beetle, son of John Beetle the creator of the original Beetle Cat. It was really cool briefly sailing with such a cool classic boat. This video is part 2 of a 3-part series of a single day of midsummer mountain lake sailing.

Before we could leave South Africa behind for good, Happy Days needed to be ready for everything the Atlantic could throw at her. What followed was days of running rigging failures, 50-knot winds in the marina, and a job list that seemed to grow faster than we could tick it off. This episode we're based in Hout Bay, just outside Cape Town — picking up a hire car (the hard way), chasing a freezing surf session at Noordhoek Beach, and working through a full running rigging overhaul on our Leopard 46 catamaran, Happy Days I. When our spinnaker halyard job goes wrong late in the day, we learn the hard way when it's time to stop and try again tomorrow. New running rigging, a rebuilt watermaker and spares, a new washing machine, an Atlantic paper chart, and a fibreglass repair job in the engine bay — this is what getting ready to cross an ocean actually looks like. ⛵ Boat: Happy Days I — 2012 Leopard 46 Catamaran 📍 Route: Hout Bay, Cape Town, South Africa — preparing for the Atlantic crossing Thanks for watching — see you next week for one of Cape Town's biggest highlights. ————— ⛵ Welcome aboard Sailing with Six!

A simple modification that could save you time, effort, and potential engine problems. In this D-Log, I show you why I fitted a disposable inline fuel filter to our yacht's fuel system and how it makes checking for contamination far easier. Instead of dismantling filters every time you want to inspect your fuel, this simple addition gives you a quick visual check that can help identify problems before they become expensive. Whether you own a sailing yacht, motorboat, canal boat or any diesel-powered vessel, this inexpensive upgrade is well worth considering. In this video you'll learn: Why I added an inline disposable fuel filter Where it fits into the fuel system How it helps monitor fuel condition Why it's a cheap preventative maintenance upgrade Tips to make routine engine checks quicker and easier Preventative maintenance is always cheaper than repairing a damaged engine.

⚓ Thinking about visiting Mystic Seaport Museum? Before you plan the trip, come along with me as we explore one of America's greatest maritime destinations. 🌊 Mystic Seaport is far more than a traditional museum. It is a living waterfront where historic ships are still restored, traditional craftsmanship is still practiced, and America's maritime heritage comes to life through working exhibits, historic buildings, and one of the world's most remarkable collections of historic vessels. ⭐ At the heart of the museum sits its crown jewel—the Charles W. Morgan, the world's last surviving wooden whaling ship. Built in 1841, the Morgan completed 37 whaling voyages during an extraordinary 80-year career. Today, she remains afloat at the center of Mystic Seaport Museum's 19-acre living waterfront village in Mystic, Connecticut. 🎥 What You'll See ⚓ A complete deck-to-hold walkthrough of the Charles W. Morgan 🛏️ The captain's cabin, private head, and officers' accommodations 👨‍✈️ Crew quarters and how rank determined where sailors slept 🍲 The tiny galley that prepared meals for a crew of approximately 35 🐋 How whale blubber was processed into oil and stored in barrels below deck 🎙️ A conversation with a Mystic Seaport historian aboard the ship 🪵 Maritime carvings and what they meant to 19th-century sailors 🏆 Why the Morgan survived for decades longer than most other whaling ships 🏘️ A walk through Mystic Seaport's beautiful historic waterfront village 📰 Planning a Maritime History Trip? In my companion Homes, Boats & Travel newsletter, I compare Mystic Seaport Museum with several of America's leading maritime museums and historic ship destinations to help you plan your next adventure. 👉 Read the full newsletter: https://homesboatstravel.substack.com 💡 A Lesson for Every Boat Owner Historic ships remind us that age alone doesn't determine a vessel's value. Construction. Condition. Maintenance. Stewardship. Those are the qualities that determine whether a vessel survives for generations—and they're the same principles I encourage every boat buyer to evaluate before making a purchase. ⛵ Looking for Your Next Boat?

We’re calling it—for now. The constant maintenance, the endless repairs, and the relentless grind of being full-time liveaboards on Agua Azul have hit a wall. We aren't living the "vacation myth"; we live this every single day, and right now, we’re burnt out. ​This is a pause, not an exit. We have plans to sail to Puerto Rico and beyond, but life beyond the hull demands our attention. We’ve been away from our sons, Nolan and Brandon, for too long. Danielle has a massive milestone—her 50th birthday—and she deserves to spend it with her twin, not fighting a clogged bilge. To make matters worse, traveling with Bella, our 13-year-old senior dog, has become a logistical nightmare due to restrictive, overreaching CDC regulations. ​This video is raw, honest, and unfiltered. We’re showing you exactly what goes into deciding to take a break and why sometimes you have to prioritize family and peace of mind over the life aquatic. We’ll be back on the water soon enough. ​What's in this video: ​The Breaking Point: Why we’re prioritizing family time and Danielle’s birthday over boat projects. ​The Logistics Nightmare: The truth about traveling internationally with a senior dog under current CDC policies. ​The Pause, Not the End: We are taking a break, but we still have our sights set on Puerto Rico and further adventures on the horizon. ​Connect with us: ​Website: www.chrisdoeswhat.com ​Channel: Chris Does What ​#LiveaboardLife #BoatLifeBurnout #AguaAzul #FamilyFirst #TravelWithPets #ChrisDoesWhat

We knew the first few months after leaving the boatyard would be a shakedown cruise. After rebuilding nearly every major system aboard ROAM over the last two years, we fully expected to find bugs, experience a little "infant mortality" with new components, and spend time fine-tuning everything we'd installed. What we didn't expect... was quite this many problems, quite this quickly. In this episode, we're temporarily calling Cambridge, Maryland home while we work through a growing punch list of repairs and adjustments before continuing south. So far we've dealt with: ⚓ A failed bilge pump 🧺 A washing machine discharge pump that quit working 🔧 A leaking oil cooler on our starboard engine that mixed engine oil with the coolant Each repair has had its own challenges. Replacing the washing machine pump turned into a surprisingly complicated project thanks to the machine's European voltage and the difficulty of sourcing the correct replacement. Even after the new pump arrived and was installed, another leak led us to discover a damaged discharge hose that also needed replacing. Fortunately, the failed bilge pump is covered under warranty. While we wait for the replacement, we were able to swap in one of the identical pumps we'd already installed for another system, getting us safely back in business. The biggest challenge, however, has been our starboard engine. After discovering a failed oil cooler, Shawn spent days flushing contaminated coolant and cleaning the engine so we could safely operate it again. Sourcing the replacement cooler became its own adventure. The genuine Yanmar part carried an eye-watering price tag, while an identical industrial version had to be sourced overseas from Turkey. Until it arrives, we've come up with a temporary solution that lets us safely maneuver the boat at low power. It's not ideal, but it'll get us where we need to go. Thankfully, Cambridge has turned out to be a great place to tackle these unexpected projects. We have easy access to parts stores, hardware stores, and everything else needed to keep the repairs moving. Even better, we have good friends nearby who have helped make the delays a lot more enjoyable. When we're not turning wrenches, we're taking time to explore this historic Chesapeake town. Cambridge is rich in Colonial and Civil War history and is famously the birthplace of Harriet Tubman, whose incredible legacy is woven throughout this region and the story of the Underground Railroad. This is exactly what a shakedown cruise is for. Every repair, every adjustment, and every lesson learned makes ROAM a little more ready for the adventures ahead. The destination can wait.

We’ve chosen to Roam the world by boat because, let’s face it, the most interesting path is rarely a straight line. As we learn to let go of our American drive to finish, and embrace the meandering routes across islands, oceans, continents, and people, we hope to gain a better sense of our world and our place in it. The path won’t always be comfortable or easy to find but, it will always #roam #Sailing #Catamaran #ShakedownCruise #BoatRepairs #Yanmar #MarineDiesel #Liveaboard #BoatLife #DIYBoat #SailboatRefit #CruisingLife #ChesapeakeBay #CambridgeMD

After clearing into Malé, we set off to explore the spectacular islands of the Maldives. Our first stops are Guraidhoo and Fulidhoo, where we wander through the small island villages, walk the beautiful beaches, and experience everyday life in the Maldives. Along the shoreline, we encounter the friendly stingrays that visit the beaches each day before heading to a nearby reef for an unforgettable swim with gentle nurse sharks. Returning to Crossroads Marina near Malé, we explore the bustling capital, stock up on fresh provisions at the local markets, and refuel No Regrets II before continuing our adventure. Before departing, we tackle one final maintenance job, replacing the seized top bearing on our screecher furler. With smooth furling restored, No Regrets II is once again ready for the next passage. From vibrant island communities and incredible marine life to essential boat maintenance, this episode showcases both the beauty and the realities of cruising the Maldives. 🏝️⚓🦈 Timestamps if you like to Jump Right In: 00:00 Intro 00:31 Leaving Male 01:50 Guraidhoo Island 02:54 Fulidhoo Island 04:13 Swim with Nurse Sharks 06:17 Crossroads Marina, Male 08:00 Refuelling 09:02 Screecher bearing replacement WHO ARE WE? Hey there! We’re Chris and Jo, an ordinary Aussie couple living our extraordinary dream aboard our Seawind 1260 since January 2019 and now we continue from 2024 aboard our new 1370! Our adventure began with an unforgettable journey down the east coast of Australia, followed by a sail to the stunning New Caledonia. In 2020, we continued our exploration further north, and by 2021 and 2022, we circumnavigated Australia, discovering breathtaking locations along the way. Having previously owned fishing and water-skiing boats, our passion for sailing deepened after crewing in South Australia, leading us to make the leap into full-time living at sea. We hope to inspire you, just as we were inspired by other YouTube channels, to chase your dreams and explore the wonders of this beautiful world.

Getting ready to pull anchor means tackling the unglamorous chores, starting with a stubborn generator pull cord and a deck that needs a serious scrub. On our mooring in Luperon, we swap out the dead battery and frayed pull cord to revive our Yamaha EF3000iSE generator. Pressure washing and scrubbing weeks of green growth off our white decks gets us one step closer to sailing out of the Dominican Republic. Learn how to maintain a Yamaha EF3000iSE generator by replacing a dead battery and a worn pull cord while living aboard. This video covers essential DIY marine generator repair and boat deck pressure washing tips for cruisers preparing to ocean sail from Luperon, Dominican Republic. -------------------- 🌊 Sailing Dark Angel follows our real-life journey sailing the Caribbean aboard our Island Spirit catamaran, sharing the challenges, adventures, and everyday moments of liveaboard sailing life. -------------------- 🎥 Become part of the Crew on Patreon Without a Crew, a Ship Has No Direction.

Tired of bringing the same old ordinary canned beans to the backyard summer cookout? Today, we are completely redefining the ultimate barbecue side dish by making Smoked Baked Beans entirely from scratch using dried beans on the PitBoss Titan Pellet Smoker. We are pairing that deep smoke profile with a thick, robust dark molasses for incredible color and depth, layering flavors in a way that canned beans simply cannot compete with. The real star of the show today is our ultimate upgrade: sweet, savory Candied Pork Belly folded right into the mix. If you don't have smoked pork belly on hand, don't worry, you can pull off this exact same recipe using thick-cut bacon so no one gets left behind. Whether you are hosting a massive crowd for this year's historic 250th Birthday of the United States or just firing up the grill for a weekend family gathering, this is the crowd-pleasing recipe that will completely steal the show. Hit that subscribe button, fire up your PitBoss, and let's get cooking! Here are some great accessories we use.

Do-It-Yourself Fuel Tank Cleaning: https://www.practical-sailor.com/blog/do-it-yourself-fuel-tank-cleaning/ Florida is one of the best places in America to own a boat, but it also has a growing problem with abandoned, at-risk, and derelict vessels. In this Practical Sailor episode, we look at Florida’s derelict boat crackdown, what makes a vessel legally “derelict,” why old fiberglass boats are so hard to dispose of, and how Florida’s new rules affect cruisers, liveaboards, project boat buyers, and anyone anchoring long-term in the state. We also cover what boat owners should do before a tired boat becomes a public problem, including title transfers, maintenance responsibilities, storm preparation, legal disposal options, and Florida’s Vessel Turn-In Program. If you have ever been tempted by a “free boat,” a cheap sailboat project, or an abandoned-looking cruiser, this episode explains why the cheapest boat can quickly become the most expensive one.

In this episode, we finally leave Moorea on an overnight passage to Bora Bora—but the conditions were much friskier than we expected! After arriving in Bora Bora, we fuel up and set off to circumnavigate the island by bike. Along the way, we stop at the gendarmerie to see if it’s possible to complete our check-out process in less than 24 hours. When they tell us it is possible, we jump into action and begin the final steps of clearing out of French Polynesia. But the adventure doesn’t stop there… watch to see the horrible discovery we made in the bilge, how the check-out process actually went, and what turned out to be our final provisioning run before departure. It’s the last stretch before we officially leave the country—don’t miss it! #sailingvlog, #frenchpolynesiasailing, #boraborasailing, #mooreasailing, #sailingcatamaranlife, #overnightsail, #sailingpassage, #leavingfrenchpolynesia, #clearingoutfrenchpolynesia, #bilgeproblem, #boatmaintenance, #provisioningforpassage, #liveaboardsailing, #southpacificsailing, #cruisingcatamaran, #sailingcouple, #leopard44catamaran, #sailingadventure, #sailingaroundtheworld, #sailinglifestyle, #societyislandssailing, #sailingtocookislands NEW TO OUR CHANNEL? We are Eileen and Brown Councill. Welcome to our channel and a glimpse into our life adventure! 2020 was a year of uncertainty and change (for all of us, right?), but we overcame the challenges and decided it was time to chase our dream, to sail around the world! Did I mention that we had very NO sailing experience? Before leaving Qingdao, China, our home of 4 years, we sold almost all of our earthly possessions and started our international search to find the right sailboat that we would call "home." After 5 months of unanticipated twists and turns, we found what we were looking for, a used Leopard 44' Catamaran located in St. Lucia. So, here begins our journey, filled with unmatched excitement and honestly, a bit of trepidation as well. We have much to learn as we travel the world on our floating home and we intend to document that journey and share it with you. We are so glad you have decided to join us, and we hope that you will find our story so compelling that it will inspire you to chase your dreams too!

Hi and welcome aboard @SailingAstridTheWombat We are Gav and Shezz and two and a half years ago we bought our Beneteau Oceanis 430 sailboat with absolutely no sailing experience and jumped straight into the deep end of liveaboard sailing. Our very first passage was just over 700 nautical miles, launching us headfirst into the world of bluewater cruising, learning to sail, and real life at sea. Since that moment, we’ve been fully immersed in boat life, documenting the journey of turning a production cruising sailboat into a capable, self-sufficient home as we prepare for full-time liveaboard life. From major sailboat upgrades and off-grid power systems to everyday maintenance and skills building, we’re learning what it truly takes to own, sail, and live on a boat while working toward our goal of sailing around the world. If you’re into sailing adventures, beginner sailing, sailboat ownership, cruising lifestyle, and traveling the world by sailboat, our journey is all about real-time learning, ocean freedom, and building the confidence to chase long-term world cruising under sail. After years of planning, countless boat projects, endless checklists, and months of preparation, the moment we've been working towards is finally here. In this episode, we take you through the final three days before we leave the dock and begin our dream of sailing around the world. Join us as we complete the last-minute sailboat preparations, finish provisioning the boat, tackle final jobs, and make sure everything is ready for life as full-time liveaboard sailors. Preparing a sailboat for offshore cruising is never simple, and these final days are packed with excitement, emotions, and plenty of last-minute tasks before casting off. One of the highlights of this episode is our farewell party, where we gather with friends and family to celebrate this incredible milestone. Saying goodbye to the people who have supported us throughout our sailing journey is both exciting and emotional as we prepare to leave our home waters behind and set off on a global sailing adventure. Whether you're a sailor, a liveaboard cruiser, a sailboat owner, or someone dreaming of travelling the world by sailboat, this episode offers a real look at what it's like in the final days before a major offshore departure. From boat preparation and provisioning to the emotions of leaving everything familiar behind, this is a chapter every cruising sailor can relate to. Our goal is to document every step of our journey as we transition from preparing our boat to becoming full-time world cruisers. If you've ever dreamed of sailing across oceans, exploring remote islands, embracing the cruising lifestyle, or living aboard a sailboat, you're in the right place. Subscribe and follow our journey as we prepare to leave our current life behind and explore the world by sailboat.

The adventure we've been planning all winter has finally begun. After leaving the tiny outport of Francois, we make the journey north to Twillingate in search of Newfoundland's famous spring icebergs before returning to Arabella and continuing east along the remote south coast. Then comes the moment Steve has been waiting nearly two decades for. After years of studying maps, satellite imagery, and old reports, we finally sail past the massive unclimbed granite wall that inspired this entire expedition. Standing beneath it, it's hard to believe it's real. With over 100 pounds of climbing gear ferried ashore, we begin preparing for what we hope will become the first new climbing routes established on these incredible cliffs in over a decade. But before any climbing can begin, Arabella needs a secure anchorage. That means building a custom stern mooring system that will allow us to safely leave the boat while we disappear into the wilderness for days at a time. This is what we came for. -------------------------- Sign up for our email newsletter: http://eepurl.com/hn3Qyv Acorn to Arabella started as a wooden boat building project in Granby, Massachusetts. Steve began the journey as an amateur wooden boat builder crafting a 38' wooden sailboat in his backyard: designer William Atkin's Ingrid with a Stormy Petrel's gaff rig. These videos follow the journey from tree felling, to lumber milling, to lofting, to the lead keel pour and now sailing the boat—sharing details of the woodworking, carpentry, metal smithing, tool building, and tool maintenance that traditional wooden boats command. This ultimate DIY project continues beyond the boat shop, as Steve and crew travel and learn to cruise aboard the handmade wooden boat that they've built. Just kidding about all that, this channel is about a Siberian Laika named Akiva. -------------------------- If you are interested in supporting/helping here are a few ways: https://www.acorntoarabella.com/how-to-help Acorn to Arabella's wishlist: https://www.acorntoarabella.com/wishlistpriority TotalBoat supports A2A!

What causes your boat electronics to randomly reboot the moment you power up your chartplotters? For two seasons, our Nautitech 46 Open had a frustrating gremlin — the Victron Cerbo GX would restart whenever the sailing instruments came online. No faults, no alarms, just… silence, then a reboot.In this video I finally track it down.Using an oscilloscope, I captured exactly what was happening during startup — and the culprit was a classic marine startup brownout: the simultaneous inrush current from multiple devices pulling the voltage low enough to drop the Cerbo GX offline. I'll explain how cable impedance turns ordinary startup loads into a real problem, walk through the clues that ruled out other causes, and show the capacitor-bank fix that solved it for good. After the fix: clean startup every time⚓ Though our symptoms were Cerbo GX-specific, the troubleshooting process applies to unexplained reboots across marine electrical systems — chartplotters, autopilots, instrument displays, and more.🛠️ Parts & links in the description below. 👇 Drop a comment if you've chased a similar ghost on your boat.#victron #cerbogx #marineelectronics #nautitech46 #boatlife #sailing #marineelectrical #boatmaintenance #sailinglife

What seemed like a minor cosmetic issue led us to grind back a small area of fiberglass to see how far the cracks went. By the time we reached solid material, we had uncovered a section that needed proper attention. With the damaged area exposed, it was time to learn a completely new skill. Using epoxy, fiberglass, and fairing techniques, we carefully rebuilt and reshaped the rudder back to its original profile. It was a challenging repair, but one that gave us the confidence to tackle future maintenance projects with a little more know-how. #BoatRepair #FiberglassRepair #diyboatrepair ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ⛵ Join us aboard our 40ft sailboat, Escapade, as we prepare for our upcoming Pacific crossing. 🔥 If you're enjoying the videos, you can Hype this episode on YouTube to help support the channel and share our adventures with more people. 🎥 Watch from the beginning: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLcpg_1nM2Z5zzbEr20cfs0K1W3FAV46DJ 🫶🏽 Patreon (early access / ad-free): https://www.patreon.com/Leadingtheescapade ☕ One-off support: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/leadingtheescapade

We had really under powered winches (a 10 & an 8 both without self-tailing) and lots of galvanic corrosion on the winch pads.

Bottom paint isn't just paint; it's a controlled release system for poison to prevent marine growth. This growth slows your boat, increases fuel burn, and can clog intakes. Choosing the right paint depends on your boat, water, and maintenance routine. #BottomPaint #BoatMaintenance #MarineLife #Antifouling

In this episode, I head out just after noon on a sunny and clear Monday in July. The winds start out light as I slowly make my way down the lake.

Life aboard an 80-foot steel schooner means every square inch has to earn its place. Anchored in the beautiful waters of Prince William Sound, Alaska, Scott continues the ongoing refit of The Alaskan Gypsy, building custom storage solutions and making progress on our liveaboard bathroom remodel. From replacing the old washer and dryer with a sliding tote storage system to leveling an unusable section of the hull and planning future cabinetry, every project makes this steel schooner a little more functional for full-time life aboard. In this episode you'll also see many of the tools Scott relies on while building aboard, including the Makita 36V cordless track saw, Makita cordless trim router, Makita cordless orbital sander, corded jigsaw, countersink drill bits, marine-grade plywood, reclaimed lumber from previous shipyard work, and Benjamin Moore paint as another section of the boat begins to come together. Living aboard isn't just about glaciers, whales, and incredible anchorages. It's also about problem-solving, woodworking, boat maintenance, organization, and constantly adapting your home to life at sea. Whether you're restoring a sailboat, planning your own liveaboard adventure, or simply enjoy watching custom boat projects unfold, we're glad you're here.
