Yay! My Portable AC Is Working Again! #boatlife #writerslife #japan

Hi, Lowell here from Pacific Solo and the Never Too Late Academy, aboard my Gib Sea 402 Wahine, moored in Buren Bay on Japan’s Amami Island. With one typhoon heading toward China (safe travels, friends) and another brewing for next week, I’m prepping Wahine before heading to the mainland for writing and meetings. A small but satisfying win today: my portable air conditioner is working again! It's now helping dry out the inside of the boat while I dehumidify, clean, and secure everything. Just in time. I’ll be away continuing work on my new book—part personal journey, part deep dive into longevity, drawn from life in Japan’s aging heartlands. Boat life teaches patience. Writing teaches perspective. Longevity? Still learning. Over and out—until the next typhoon. #boatlife #writerslife #japan
