S1 E22 Tour of Arta (1968 Columbia 26) now that she's tidy! 😊 (Dominican Republic)

Finally, the grand tour of Arta, which has been my home for about 18 months. I prepped her myself for this adventure, and she did an amazing job. Arta is a 1968 Columbia 26. You can find more specs here: https://sailboatdata.com/sailboat/columbia-26/ I entered "Welcome to my sh*t show.. solo sailing to remote islands" in the Cruiser's Awards Competition for "Best YT Episode of 2023" If you think that's great, please vote for me! Thank you for your continued support 😃 https://zealous.co/youngcruisersassociation/opportunity/Best-YouTube-Episode-23/results/submissions/. I originally entered for emerging YT but wanted to enter the sh*t show episode because it seemed like it was a good hit. Here's link for the emerging YT if you want to vote for that one instead though. https://zealous.co/youngcruisersassociation/opportunity/Best-Emerging-YouTube-Channel-23/results/submissions (or you can vote for both). Next video is footage of removing the new boat’s diesel tank! A nasty job… can’t wait to share it with you! Thanks for watching, and huge shout out to my patrons who are instrumental in making this happen. Another shoutout to those who’ve donated and bought from my wishlist. Words can’t relay my gratitude. I couldn’t be doing this without your support and I hope I’m inspiring and helping you in return. At this point, I’ve got $3,780 towards getting the new boat officially in my name. The price tag is $25,000 which means I’m still trying to front $21,220. I’ve got boat projects well underway and hope I can pay off the boat in time to go sailing when I finish these projects. If you’d like to help, please send a YT super thanks, donate to my GoFundMe (https://gofund.me/9ef20ebc) or send a donation on PayPal.me/NicoleDemetra. Thank you all for your support.
