Installing our new DIY bowsprit Episode 51 #refit #sailingcatamaran

In this episode we’re recruiting a very talented friend to help us install our new bowsprit on the crossbeam. The process included welding strips to secure the trampolines in place and welding the holding rings in place. It was a brutally hot day, but in the end, worth every sweaty minute. ☝More about us, our adventures, and how we do all this on our website.

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 Intro to sanding the crossbeam 01:18 Intro to us 01:36 Sand, sand, sand 03:46 Wet-sandblasting 04:15 Fit the pin 04:56 Welding day 08:40 Get bowsprit in place 11:51 Wrap up/Thanks Austin 12:16 Like/subscribe/See you next time 12:29 End Card ----------------------------------------------------------- #boatlife #catamaran #travelvlog #digitalnomad #lifestyle #sailboats #nautitech #yachtlife #sailingroam #liveaboardlife #cruisinglife #explore #exploretheworld #refit #catamaranrefit © Sailing Roam 2025
