Quarantine/isolation on a sailboat, another unexpected marina stay for a rigging inspection and forestay replacement, building a paddle board rack!

Checking the rigging and gear before we make our way across the Aegean Sea in Greece In some unpredictable weather through winter.

This is part 1 of prepping our main mast to go up! Days 3 and 4 went much quicker, as is tradition. One mast at a time and one shroud at a time. It's been fun working away from the boat, aka keeping the mess away from home ;) Thanks for watching! ~Ruthie...

There are always jobs to do on a sailboat and we try to get as much done off season here in the Med as possible. There are separate videos for oil change, winch maintenance, varnishing, bilge pump maintenance and rigging. So this is the stuff thats left.....
