Ep 13: Ending Our Pumpkin Era // Lifeboat Conversion

In this episode we cover our bright orange paint, work on the rudder assembly, and prepare to re-enter the water. We also FORGET to fill a hole in the hull until the very last second! Toryn and Dani met in 2010 while on the same equestrian vaulting team. Best described as gymnastics and dance on a moving horse, vaulting was only the first of many quirky adventures we've embarked on together. We think this one is our best one yet! A machinist and graphic designer, we're uniquely prepared to undertake a retrofit of this scale while documenting the entire process. We're also passionate about sharing the ups and downs of a larger scale DIY refit and encouraging others to reach towards their off grid, on-the-water dreams. Join us as we rebuild Luja and then cruise Canada's Gulf Islands and beyond. One of the first all-electric lifeboat conversions in the world, we're on a unique mission and we're so excited to have you aboard! -- IG: livingonalifeboat Patreon: Living on A Lifeboat
