Boat Maintenance, Painting the Hull and More! / solo sailing

I will be entrusting my life to the vessel that will carry me across the Pacific, through the Garbage Patch, and north to Vancouver after passing through Nemo North. SV Wahine has some years behind her, and my friend Gregor Neumann (who has been staying with me temporarily as he journeys across the globe) has helped me make repairs to various parts of the boat. For the first time in a year, we took SV Wahine out of the water, and with the help of my friend Robin, we put a fresh coat of paint on Wahine's hull. Please follow Gregor on his adventures. His blog is fascinating, which you can check out here: https://graexploring.com/ You can also follow him on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/graegstore/ Support Pacific Solo on Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/pacificsolo/ Purchase Pacific Solo swag here: https://store.pacificsolo.com/ Thank you to the Keel Club Founding Members: Harry A.
