We Spent BIG on Our SailBoat This Holiday Season

We’re finally heading back to Jupiter after 8 months away. 🚚⚓ The truck is packed to the brim with tools, spare parts, and long-planned upgrades as we cross the border and return to the boatyard in Mexico. Customs, early mornings, and a whole lot of coffee later we’re back on a mission. In this episode, we unload months of collected gear and dive into some major upgrades: new Victron electronics, solar controllers, panels, heavy-duty power leads, and a brand-new AC TIG welder for aluminum repairs. From corrosion pits and rudder repairs to future cockpit projects and watermaker fittings, this welder is about to earn its keep. We also tackle one of our biggest past problems shore power and finally test whether we can run the compressor properly for sandblasting and painting. This is a huge step toward getting Jupiter finished, back in the water, and ready for our ultimate goal: sailing to Spain. Thanks for coming along. This is where the real work begins. ⚓ Life on Jupiter 🔧 Boat refit • Sailing dreams • DIY projects #LifeOnJupiter #SailboatRefit #BoatYardLife #VictronEnergy #TIGWelding #SailingToSpain #BoatProjects If you get value from our videos whether entertainment. education or inspiration show your appreciation by supporting our channel. ▶️Visit Our Website: https://www.sailinglifeonjupiter.com ▶️ SUPPORT US HERE 👇: JOIN our “PRIME” crew on PATREON for early video releases, NO ADDS, weekly video REALTIME updates, private facebook group, video calls , “FREE CONSULTING” and even come sailing with us!!! ▶️Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/LifeonJupiter ▶️Support us on Paypal: https://www.paypal.me/SJRohan ▶️Just buy us a coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/lifeonjupiter ▶️Amazon storefront: https://amzn.to/3xv7STq As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. ------- ▶️Please Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@SailingLifeonJupiter ------- ▶️Save money.
