Go to https://holafly.sjv.io/yqJB3W and use code ESCAPADE to get 5% off your Holafly eSIM for your next trip! Sometimes it’s the simple things that feel the most special when you live life afloat 🌊 In this video, we head out for a relaxed day on land, riding e-bikes and soaking up the kind of everyday pleasures land lubbers often take for granted. We wander through the local farmers market, then make our way up to Jacksonville to meet up with a friend and head out sailing for the day ⛵️ That evening takes a turn for the legendary when we get to enjoy our friend’s incredible invention — a floating hot tub off the back of a sailboat. Yes… it’s exactly as awesome as it sounds 🔥🛁 The next day, we borrow a friend’s car to track down some essential boat maintenance supplies. Jase gets stuck into a full engine service to make sure everything’s dialed in for the new year, we install a 110-volt inverter, and then top it all off by treating ourselves to a small but exciting Christmas present for the galley 🎄⚓️ A mix of simple joys, boat life realities, and one seriously cool floating hot tub — hope you enjoy the ride!

If you’re building a no-compromise racing setup and “winning is everything,” this video breaks down what to look for in high-performance sailing line. We cover why pure Dyneema cores deliver near zero stretch, how premium covers handle the abuse of sheaves/blocks and winches, and what that means for holding sail shape under load. Looking to upgrade your lines check out R&W Rope - https://www.rwrope.com Free Sail Trim Course - https://www.nauticed.org/sailing-courses/view/basic-sail-trim?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=uaHGA5RGUbA Advanced Sail Trim Course - https://www.nauticed.org/sailing-courses/view/sail-trim?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=uaHGA5RGUbA You’ll hear real examples of top-tier options like New England Ropes Endura Braid / Endura Euro and Marlow D2 Race, plus the practical tradeoffs around stiffness, friction wear, chafe resistance, and ongoing inspection for high-load applications. 00:00 - Best High-Performance Sailing Line (Racing) 00:14 - New England Ropes Endura Braid: Dyneema Core, Zero Stretch 00:47 - Marlow D2 Race: Tight Cover Weave for Durability 01:13 - Pure Dyneema: High Performance, High Maintenance #sailing #sailboat #sailor #rope

Sürekli kötü haberler, bitmeyen krizler ve çaresizlik hissi… Psikolojide buna haber yorgunluğu ve öğrenilmiş çaresizlik deniyor. Denize açılmak bir kaçış değil; zihnin kendini onarma çabası. Çok fazla kötü haber. Çok az umut. O yüzden denize gidiyoruz. Haber yorgunluğu, bilgi kaçınması ve öğrenilmiş çaresizlik… İnsanlar gerçek dünyadan kaçmıyor. Sadece denizde yeniden nefes alabiliyor. Dünya yoruyor. Haberler ağır geliyor. Deniz, biraz olsun susmamıza izin veriyor.

I rowed out to my boat Wahine and found some good news - the bilge is dry and the battery is fully charged thanks to the sun. However, I discovered potential engine problems that could be basic maintenance issues or a fuel line problem. Additionally, my seawater intake might be clogged with barnacles since no seawater is coming out when I start the engine. Because of these issues, I've decided not to move the boat today and am heading back ashore to get supplies. #BoatLife #Wahine #EngineMaintenance #SailingProblems #BoatRepair #Barnacles #MarineLife #BoatOwner #DIYBoating

In this video I reveal 10 sailboats that almost no one is buying in 2026, even as prices keep dropping. I explain what’s scaring buyers away, which boats might be hidden bargains, and when a “cheap” listing is really just a future maintenance nightmare instead of a real deal. 00:00 Intro 00:53 Hunter 27 01:58 Beneteau First 235 02:59 MacGregor 26 04:04 Catalina 25 05:09 Pearson 30 06:11 O'Day 28 07:17 Irwin 34 08:24 Watkins 27 09:34 Columbia 36 10:41 Chrysler 22 11:50 Ending Copyright Disclaimer This video may include copyrighted material used under the “fair use” principle for educational and informational purposes.

You think a ship stops only in port? Surprise 😏 This is what it really looks like when a cargo ship’s Main Engine is stopped in the middle of the ocean. No traffic jams, no honking… just calm seas, silence, and a crew casually doing their job like it’s another day at the office. Stopped doesn’t always mean trouble — sometimes it’s maintenance, checks, or planned operations. Life at sea is peaceful, technical, and way cooler than you imagine 🌊⚙️ If you thought ships run non-stop… welcome to reality.

In this week's episode, I go back to the beginning of the season where I arrive at the marina to find an unexpectedly breezy day. While the forecast called for gusts below 15 mph, it was very windy when I arrived. Looking back at the weather data for the day, it was gusting well into the 20s all afternoon with a maximum gust of 28 mph. Since I had already made the long drive, I decided to make the best of it and head out onto the lake under a double-reefed mainsail only. I've solo sailed in these conditions many times and knew the boat would be able to handle it with a reefed mainsail. It was slow going, but as they say: "A bad day of sailing beats a good day of work!" Throughout the video I share tips, thoughts and observations about sailing in heavy winds under mainsail only. This day was a perfect example of the frustrations, challenges and excitement sailors face when sailing in the unpredictable winds of high-altitude mountain lakes. Subscribe and follow @ColoradoSailing on YouTube for more original sailing videos, gear, boat maintenance, sailing tips and travel content as I sail my Precision 18 trailer sailer and Precision 16 sailing dinghy in Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Wyoming and South Dakota. #sailingchannel #coloradosailing #sailing #mountainsailing #extremesports

Facing the challenges of solo sailing as a female sailor, I navigated the highs and lows of single-handed sailing while tackling DIY boat repair projects, from engine fixes to full boat refits on a budget. My life aboard was a mix of adventure and reflection, shaping an independent woman’s story of resilience, personal growth, and embracing the sailing lifestyle. Along the way, I became an ocean conservation activist with In Mocean, stumbled across my dog Boga, and discovered the joys and challenges of sailing with a dog. Now, I’m exploring a new chapter, having jumped aboard my partner’s Hallberg Rassy Rasmus with Boga and his Australian Kelpie, Jango. Together, we face the unique dynamics and challenges of sailing as a couple, balancing off-grid life, sustainable sailing, and the demands of long-term cruising. If you’re interested in remote sailing adventures, authentic sailing stories, and the realities of living on a sailboat, this channel offers a glimpse into the world of DIY projects, the sailing lifestyle, and life’s transformative moments on the water.

This simple shop made bevel is quick to build. In this video, I show how to make a traditional boatbuilder’s bevel an essential hand tool used to transfer angles accurately when shaping frames, planks, and other curved components of a wooden boat. The small size of this brass bevel is highly accurate, and perfectly suited to boatbuilding work from pulling angles from plans and a lofting floor. I walk through the materials, layout, and construction process, along with tips on how and when to use it in real-world boatbuilding. Whether you’re building a small wooden boat, restoring a classic hull, or just interested in traditional hand tools, this is a practical addition to your workshop. “If you’re going to make it, make it beautiful.” Bob Emser As an advocate for backyard boat builders I offer a free 30 minute chat about your project.

Picked up some fishcale skis with Silvretta bindings, which are compatible with mountaineering boots instead of traditional ski boots. Join us as we test them out on the Newfoundland T'Railway. This set up is going to be a game changer for our ski mountaineering objectives this season.

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.

Episode 250 In this episode, we try to install a diesel heater on the boat… with questionable tools, limited knowledge, and way too much confidence. Things smoke, parts don’t fit, something nearly catches fire, and we slowly realise we might be in over our heads.

As part of our ongoing DIY refit, we’re sharing what’s working, what’s not, and how we’re getting her ready for mediterranean sailing again. if you're into liveaboard life, sailing with dogs, family cruising or remote working while exploring by boat — you’ll feel right at home here. Thanks for watching! The sea calls to those who listen. It speaks of freedom, adventure, and the unknown. We are Daria, Chris, and Jasper - we sail with two golden retrievers, Hachi and Luna. We recently lost our Bernese Mountain Dog, Mimsy. (RIP 09.02.2025). Our floating home, Ragdoll, has taken us on an incredible journey across the Atlantic coast, from the west coasts of Scotland to the sun-drenched waters of the Mediterranean. For two years, we lived aboard a 47ft monohull. Now, we’ve started on a new adventure aboard our 2008 Fountaine Pajot Orana 44, embracing the beauty, chaos, and unpredictability of life at sea. Full-time work, homeschooling, storms, sunsets—this is our reality. No script. No certainty. Just wind, waves, and the endless blue. Join us as we navigate life on the water, one adventure at a time. 💙 Enjoy our content? Don’t be a stranger! Subscribe, hit that like button, and ring the bell so you never miss an episode.

Sailing with pets isn’t always easy, but we wouldn’t have it any other way. We started our journey exploring the remote and breathtaking Scottish isles before setting course for the Mediterranean in 2023. With no fixed route, we go where the wind and life take us. ⛵ Ragdoll is now a 2008 Fountaine Pajot Orana 44, a catamaran that gives us more space, comfort, and stability as we continue our life at sea.

After nearly a year of planning and waiting, we finally begin building out the heart of our onboard electrical system ⚡⛵ In this episode, we tackle a major refit milestone by designing and installing the core power infrastructure for our catamaran. We’re building a native 24V and 48V electrical system, and the first big decision was relocating critical power equipment out of a deck locker that posed a serious water intrusion risk. Instead, we converted the forward captain’s berth/office into a dedicated utility room — safer, drier, and far more serviceable. To support the electrical gear, we built a custom structural wall using 1-inch Coosa board laminated with 1/4-inch fiberglass for strength and rigidity. As we mocked up the layout, we discovered that not everything would fit as planned — the large inverters had to be moved to an adjacent wall, forcing a rethink of the design before final installation. With the wall bonded in place using bolts and Sikaflex, we mounted a significant portion of our power system, including: Victron inverter and transformer Two battery chargers DC/DC charger 24V and 48V DC bus bars AC electrical panel(s) This Victron equipment has been stored away for nearly a year while other refit priorities took precedence, so finally getting everything mounted and positioned feels like a huge win. The system is coming together, and the next major step will be wiring and commissioning the power plant. If you’re interested in catamaran refits, marine electrical systems, Victron installations, or large-scale sailboat upgrades, this episode is a big step forward in our long refit journey. Thanks for following along — progress is finally visible, and it feels great. 00:00 Teaser clips 00:18 Channel Intro 00:36 Intro to project 01:06 Layout power wall 09:22 Support ledge 11:42 Create aluminum backing plates 15:30 Epoxy in backing plates 17:31 Drill and tap for mounting hardware 17:55 Cut outs for Aircon vents 18:14 Dry fit 19:22 Prep wall to support Multiplus inverters 20:26 Glue and screw wall into place 24:06 Mount Victron gear 29:34 Like and subscribe 29:58 End card #SailingLife #BoatRefit #SailboatMaintenance #CruisingLife #powerplant #DIYBoatProjects #SailingCouple #SailboatRestoration #liveaboardlife #victron #victronenergy © Sailing Roam 2025

DETAYLAR BİZİ BİTİRDİ. BU HAFTA DA TEKNEYE TAŞINAMADIK. Sintineyi 4 kere boyadık. Yılmadık, her seferinde zımparaladık derin bir nefes alıp işe giriştik. Sonunda çok güzel oldu mu? Oldu. İnce işlere girdikçe zaman çok hızlı akmaya, işer bir türlü bitmemeye başladı. Bir de Ömer Öcel'in her seferinde böyle yapayım mı diye sorması yok mu :)) Resmen tekne bakımında sabır testinde gibiyiz. Neyseki delik kapama işi bitti, vardevela ayaklarının yeni delikleri açıldı ve her ne kadar yerleşemesek de baş kamarada işler bitti. #yelken #teknedeyaşam #macera #gezi #panama #bakımonarım #teknebakımı ———————————————————————————- Follow us on Instagram  /basak mireli To see where we are https://share.garmin.c...

This is volume 1 of two volumes which details the work done on the boat while in Anacortes in Sept/Oct 2025. This came after the trip to Alaska and upon return to Washington, before our run South to Mexico. There was extensive work carried out. Some planned and some not planned. For those who like to see the upgrades and maintenance work on a boat this is a perfect viewing opportunity.

This episode documents the removal of a leaking forward deck hatch aboard Paikea and the process of filling and structurally rebuilding the opening. The hatch over Harry’s bunk had been a long-term source of water ingress. Rather than replacing it like-for-like, we decided to remove the opening entirely and move ventilation to a side port light positioned under the gunwale, where it’s protected from direct rain and green water. The video covers: Why this hatch was removed rather than replaced Cutting and filling the deck opening Foam fitting in a cambered deck Hand laminating versus infusion trade-offs Laminate thickness, resin choice, and consolidation Why closing the opening significantly stiffens the deck panel This isn’t presented as a universal solution. It’s a record of one specific structural decision on Paikea, made within the constraints of time, access, and how the boat is actually used offshore. CHAPTERS: 00:00 Cutting another hole in the boat – why this hatch matters 01:00 Why the forward hatch keeps leaking 01:02 Decision: filling the hatch instead of replacing it 4:54 Two hatches in – preparing to fill Harry’s hatch 7:14 Shaping foam to match deck camber 09:01 Cold conditions and curing the foam 11:38 Hand laminating vs infusion (and time pressure) 15:27 Can you walk on it yet? (skin structure explained) 19:49 Overhead work and inside skin plans 01:20:00 Why the outside wasn’t infused 21:00 3D infusion explained (and why it wasn’t done here) 24:20 Infusion pleats explained – avoiding resin ridges SAFETY DISCLAIMER: PROFESSIONAL WORK This video documents professional marine work with significant risk of injury or vessel damage.

Power Up: Installing Your Budget Lithium System—and Keeping It Safe: https://www.practical-sailor.com/systems-propulsion/electrical/power-up-installing-your-budget-lithium-system-and-keeping-it-safe STOP wasting money on faulty boat gear! In this exclusive deep-dive, Practical Sailor reveals the 4 worst products and maintenance mistakes that routinely fail in our long-term testing, costing sailors thousands in repairs and wasted time. You bought a sailboat to sail, not to fix broken gear. Based on decades of unbiased product testing, we expose the items and chemicals you need to avoid if you want to keep your boat safe, corrosion-free, and operational. Learn the truth about why "bargain" products become the most expensive mistake on the water. We cover everything from major fire hazards to the simple household cleaner that is actively destroying your sanitation system seals. In this video, we answer these critical questions: • Which gelcoat "gimmicks" look great for a month but require expensive removal later? • What are the major fire risks associated with non-marine electrical cords and poor wiring terminations? • Why do cheap, land-based 12V coolers and dehumidifiers always fail in the marine environment? (The corrosion trap). • What is the #1 product sailors use to clean their head that actually destroys joker valves and causes worse holding tank odor? Don't risk system failure or compromise your safety. Watch now to start buying smart!

In this episode, we take on the challenge of repairing our catamaran’s bridle — a crucial piece of gear that keeps us safe and steady at anchor. It’s our first time tackling a project like this, so there’s plenty to learn, a few mistakes along the way, and some new tools to master. Will we pull it off and get our bridle back in action? Join us to find out! #SailingLife #CatamaranRepairs #BoatLife #CruisingCouple #DIYBoatProjects 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! As a viewer, we consider you to be part of our family and look forward to getting to know you. Don't hesitate to comment on our videos and ask questions. We will do our best to answer every correspondence! All we ask is that you have patience with us as we work really hard to improve our camera/video techniques and ability to tell a story.

After the holidays, getting back into the refit has been harder than we expected. In this episode of the 1€ boat refit, we return to Seabird and try to find our rhythm again, but bad weather, low motivation, and the sheer amount of work left make it a real struggle. This boat refit has never been easy, but this week really tested us. Cold days, rain, and a long to do list make us question how to move forward and how to stay motivated when progress feels slow. If you’re restoring a boat, tackling a big DIY project, or just trying to get back into routine after a break, you’ll probably relate to this one.

In our last video, we shared how we struck a submerged hazard while navigating our sailboat in Southeast Alaska. This video is our response — answering your comments, questions, and critiques honestly. After publishing “We Struck a Submerged Hazard in Alaska on our Sailboat,” we received a flood of thoughtful comments — from seasoned mariners to curious newcomers. Instead of replying one-by-one, we decided to sit down and address them directly. In this video we talk about: • What actually caused the grounding • Navigating close to shore in Alaska • Electronic charts vs raster charts • Risk, judgment, and learning the hard way • Why we still choose this lifestyle We’re not here to pretend mistakes don’t happen. We’re here to share the reality of learning a boat, learning new waters, and owning our decisions — good and bad. Thanks to everyone who commented respectfully, shared their own stories, and contributed to the conversation. This is why we love this community. If you’re new here, welcome aboard. If you’ve been around a while — thanks for sticking with us.

Let's be real—living on a boat for $500 a month sounds impossible these days. But for the resourceful, gritty, and disciplined, the dream is still alive. In this video, we break down the reality of ultra-low-budget cruising. We look at the core expenses you can't avoid, how anchoring saves you thousands, and what a minimalist liveaboard lifestyle actually looks like in 2026.

This video focuses a little more on what's involved for us in getting underway. Getting away from the dock, exiting the harbor, getting the sails up and getting under sail. We hope you enjoy and get a better understanding of what's involved for us as we continue our Great Lakes sailing adventures. Unfortunately, we have not had any extended cruises this year. We have an aging dog who is battling cancer. He does not do well on the boat due to his condition. This summer we have stayed close to home. Thanks for watching. We appreciate your time and support. If you have any questions or comments, please let us know. All the best. Pura Vida!

We are now living aboard our Rival 38 Centre Cockpit full-time while finishing a refit so we can launch ASAP. Two ongoing jobs are preparing for our electric motor installation and creating a cockpit enclosure for our wheelhouse. We have a frequently updated blog at https://sustainablesailing.net with membership options and a weekly newsletter at £2 per month for Early Bird Supporters. Our free Sustainable Sailing book is at: https://sustainablesailing.codeberg.page/ Or visit our shop at https://sustainablesailing.teemill.com/ for great hoodies, t-shirts and bags. When we bought Vida in August 2019 she was in a very tired and damp condition with all original equipment and fittings (much of it not working). We have removed all the gas, diesel and paraffin equipment, and are installing all-electric (motor, cooking etc).

Looking to master offshore knowledge check out the complete guide - https://www.nauticed.org/bundle/view/captain?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=RC0HbQuR9_c LRSE (Life Raft Survival Equipment) - https://www.lrse.com A ditch bag is one of the best complements to your abandon ship / life raft equipment—it’s where you keep the extra gear you’ll want immediately if you ever have to leave the boat. In this video we walk through a practical ditch bag checklist, including common essentials like flares, signaling devices, emergency blankets, EPIRB, VHF radio, and a medical kit—plus the “forgotten” items most people miss (medications, eyeglasses, passports/copies of licenses, seasick bags, batteries, food rations, and water). We also cover the difference between a coastal vs offshore ditch bag, why organization matters (ziplocks / compartments), and a big one: don’t exceed your ditch bag’s flotation capacity—packing too much can keep it from floating when you need it most. 00:00 - What a ditch bag is (and why it matters) 00:15 - Core ditch bag essentials (signaling + survival) 00:40 - The “forgotten” items: meds, glasses, documents, seasick bags 01:07 - Coastal vs offshore ditch bags (what changes) 01:30 - DIY ditch bag vs pre-built options (coastal/offshore) #sailing #boating #sailingschool

🇮🇹 Secondo me questa è la barca a vela più bella sotto i 10 metri. In questo video salgo a bordo e la visitiamo insieme, osservando spazi, dettagli e sensazioni, senza perderci in numeri o schede tecniche. Una barca che colpisce per equilibrio, carattere e scelte intelligenti, e che secondo me rappresenta il meglio della sua categoria. Dimmi nei commenti se sei d’accordo… o se per te c’è di meglio ⚓ #vento #meteo #barcavela #vela #nautica #vitainbarca #faidate #diynautico #mare #passionemare #inbarccondario #hr #hallbergrassy #312 #mk2 #mkII ___________________________________________________________ 🇺🇸🇬🇧 I think this is the most beautiful sailing boat under 10 meters. In this video I step on board and take you through it, focusing on spaces, details, and overall feel, without getting lost in specs or numbers. A boat that stands out for balance, character, and smart design choices — and one that, in my opinion, represents the best in its class.

This episode discusses the old sailor's adage: "one hand for the boat, and one for yourself." It's not just an old saying, but also an important safety philosophy that encourages sailors to always be mindful of how they are holding onto the boat. Following this advice, sailors should always maintain at least one point of contact with the boat when moving about or performing a task to avoid man overboard (MOB) incidents.
