Sailing Saoirse - WHEN WILL WE BE ALLOWED TO LEAVE? we're almost finished our Port Fwd cabin refit!

We are almost finished refitting our port forward cabin⛵️Cleo goes missing‼️we bake in our little gas oven 🍰 celebrate Mother’s Day and try to figure out how to get out of the Western Cape for winter ❄️ In this episode we take you through our process of getting our forward cabins to a livable state while in lockdown. It took us about 6 weeks in total because once again we had 6 projects going at one time. We started out with bare fiberglass walls, they needed to be sanded and then faired to try and get rid of as many imperfections in the fiberglass as possible. We then fitted the cupboards at the end of the cabin to optimize space, with there being a porthole at the end of the cabin we had to figure out a way of making the most of that space without losing the light of the porthole. After the cupboards were fitted the walls were stippled, sanded down and painted. The bed boards and hatches under the bed were then painted. The cupboards were then painted and electrical wires fitted for the lighting and plug points in the cabin, we have to wait until we fit some of the finishing touches because of lockdown and not being able to get into hardware stores. CLEO WENT MISSING! We thought that Cleo had gotten into trouble while trying to board the yacht, we haven’t seen her in two days and started to worry because in our 6 weeks of looking after her she had never spent that much time away from us. We were her personal search and rescue team combing through the resort and looking for her, Denver on the canoes checking the rocks for a little furry body and Teagan shedding tears at the thought of it. BUT she was found and was okay after all the stress and tears. We make lemon meringue cupcakes for Mother’s Day while trying to relax a little and enjoy the day! We also want to find out if it is possible to leave port and head home for the winter!
