In this episode, we remove Ocean Melody?s cockpit enclosure and take the stainless steel frame to Dave for some much-needed refinements. Andy originally built the frame using a MIG welder?strong and functional, but not exactly pretty! Now, with Dave?s expertise, we?re hoping to take it to the next level. Join us as we tackle this important upgrade, discuss why it might seem like a step backwards (but really isn?t), and share our latest liveaboard sailing adventures. Whether you?re into DIY boat work, yacht restorations, or life aboard a sailing yacht, this episode is packed with insights and hands-on refit action! #Sailing #Liveaboard #BoatLife #YachtRefit #DIYBoatwork #SailingYacht #weareboatfolk. #boatfolk #boatfolkmarinas #PortlandMarina #boatfolkadventures #sailwithboatfolk #eatwithboatfolk #Allbyboatfolk @boatcareuk @Portland_marina @weareboatfolk If you would like your own funky dry bag and support the RNLI here is the link https://www.shore2sea.co.uk/our-story/ For one time donations. https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/sailingmelody Buy us a coffee, or chip in towards restoring and upgrading Ocean Melody. https://ko-fi.com/sailingmelody Or to become part of the Sailing Melody supporters family head over to Patreon.com/sailingmelody where for as little as the price of a cup of coffee you can get live updates, direct messaging with us, early episodes and tonnes of extra exclusive content.
