7 Months Later | Redesigning Our 43 Year Old Sailboat's Exhaust EP. 54

[ SUPPORT US ON PATREON ] https://www.patreon.com/sailingseawind [ ONE TIME CONTRIBUTIONS ] https://bit.ly/3e5YE78 We stored our sailboat in the Florida Everglades in order to be safe from hurricanes during the summer months and after Hurricane Ian and Nicole we are so glad to have made the decision to come to Indiantown Marina. The bigger question is...did she survive without any bug or animal infestations?? In this episode we climb aboard for the first time after 7 months away after visiting family and having an adventure on the West coast. We peak our heads inside and realize that all of our hard work was worth it! We do encounter a family of small lizards, lots of algae and some man eating wasps though...nothing that a bit of elbow grease won't fix! After getting our bearings, we quickly get into boat projects, one of which has been a long time coming. Parker rips out the old diesel exhaust system that is riddled with pin holes and filled our lockers with carbon soot. He then sets out on redesigning and building a brand new exhaust for our trusty Bukh DV20. We hope you enjoy!
