Badly aged caulk is causing leaks! Episode 35 #boatrefit

Months after hauling our 54' catamaran out of the water to begin the refit, we finally did something that will stay on the boat. Many projects are in process, but that's been the name of the game for a long time. We were both itching to move this refit in the opposite direction. It's a small thing, but it feels great to refresh the all the exterior caulk. Unfortunately, like most boat projects, this one has led to more projects.

A couple travelers out chasing the horizon, meeting the people, and capturing it to share with you. 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 Here's an index of the video in case you want to see something specific: 00:00 Recap 00:28 Intro to Us 00:44 The caulk is falling apart 01:08 Start removing caulk 02:31 Tour of the problem areas 02:46 Seams around the mast step 04:25 Take a look at the port side seam 04:55 Day 2 removing caulk begins 06:02 We have a problem 07:52 Returning to the project after several months 08:27 Final prep 09:03 Laying the new caulk 10:10 Wrap up project 10:13 Like and Subscribe 10:25 Next time on Sailing Roam 10:40 End Card ----------------------------------------------------------- #boatlife #catamaran #travelvlog #digitalnomad #lifestyle #sailboats #nautitech #yachtlife #sailingroam #liveaboardlife #cruisinglife #explore #exploretheworld #refit #catamaranrefit © Sailing Roam 2023
