Our First Hurricane & Generator Woes | Sailing Life Update | S04E08

In this episode, we sail off anchor from the stunning Serenity Island and make our way toward the Melbourne area-an ideal spot for restocking and regrouping. We drop anchor in a calm patch of water near Melbourne, where we take the opportunity to get much-needed supplies and provisions, including some brand new water jugs to make hauling water a bit easier (finally!) and a full gas top-up. But cruising life isn't always smooth sailing. We hit a frustrating snag when our relatively new generator starts acting up-never fun when you rely on it for power on the hook. To top it off, we experience the outer effects of a hurricane passing through Florida. It's a first for us, and the strong winds and squalls definitely remind us of Mother Nature's power. Join us as we navigate the highs and lows of liveaboard life-anchoring, provisioning, troubleshooting, and weathering the storm (literally). ?
