We sail from Langkawi to Phuket Thailand. The day after we check into Thailand we get our engine checked out by Volvo Penta mechanics, and they find several problems! The biggest issue was a few cracks in the heat exchanger! But, we also need a new turbo, and a few other small but expensive things!

Zivile heads back to Lithuania to get a new passport, and Dave arrives to visit while I hang out in Phuket! We did a lot of work while Zivile was away. Check out Tips on Tuesday!

Episode #284 : Season 9 : The South Pacific

Hello Friends,
This is the third installment of my "Sailing Alone" series of long format films that document my solo ocean passages.

On this episode I say good by to Bora Bora and French Polynesia and make way for American Samoa, a passage of 1110nm. This passage was filled with rowdy following seas, high winds and a few moments of drama that really kept me on my toes.

The ancient diesels are trusty pieces of kit. Some trust them to fail when needed most… All in all, with all of the dirty downsides we still cant find anything better for long term cruising. However now.. Things are changing and electric has a place. More power, more range and lees maintenance.

Electric is still not for everyone but it finding a place, in this episode we check out mid sized motors to power a small boat, around the 10m range so perfect for fast sail boats and power boats alike.. possibly a big tender too, so long as you can charge the battery that is!

Let us know your thoughts on electric, still on the fence?

The final preparations on the dock are done, and we’ve moved back onto the boat—what an incredible feeling! We’re getting back to boat life. ✨
This week was packed with emotions. After a small surprise, we finally left the dock and got out on the ocean again. It felt amazing to be back where we belong! 🌊
We did our first tests and checks before heading to the marina to prepare for a proper test sail next week—big things are coming! 🎉
Thank you so much for all your support and kind words about splash day. Sharing this journey with you makes it even more special! 💚

In this video Trent shows poor installation of our autopilot that resulted in it needing to be replaced by Raymarine under warranty and properly reinstalled. He touches on some of our experiences dealing with the new yacht warranty process when externally supplied parts are involved irrespective of who they came from.

Trent wanted to note that the points he is making are based on the process of how some large companies who supply parts for the Leopard treat warranty claims and how varied their responses can be from location to location. Some are great and some render the warranty functionally worthless to people with visa constraints.

He also wanted to note that what isn't mentioned is the time cost and stress of multiple parts of the Raymarine system as one example, failing slowly over time due to poor installation. That it would be far more cost effective and less stressful for him to just have a reliable contractor install the entire system or do it yourself to save time and money.

Basically, that these warranties on external parts have limited valued in our opinion to international cruisers. It is best to assume that you will have to absorb all costs yourself if internationally cruising due to the time it takes to have simple issues rectified.

Once you add in the possibility that the shipbuilder caused the failure at the point of installation it basically turns into a circus and you could be requested to get a surveyor to validate every single claim and get multiple quotes to fix the issues at which point they may not even pay for all of their own poor workmanship knowing that you will need to litigate to take it further.

Nobody told us this before closing on the hull so we wanted to pass it on.
