A few odd jobs in this episode; Lucy finishing off the 'mock' Holding Tank, me finally gluing up the rest of the headlining, plus fixing a broken TV - but is there anything worth watching? The moral of this short video is that anyone can fix anything and a...

After seeing how Turkish Gullets are made in a Bozburun boat yard (and seeing where Roman Abramovich had his yacht built!) we sail to Marmaris and traverse the bureaucracy of agents, crew lists and the Turkish blue card scheme aka 'poo cards'. Turkey's 'pu...

Come and see why Pascale doesn't believe in theoretical hull speed! This week we say goodbye to Brisbane and sail north past Fraser Island to the Capricorn Bunker group. Along the way we recap on our time in Brisbane including giving you a run down on ou...

This video went on a bit longer than anticipated, but so did the install process. First a bit of an update, then a detailed look at fitting the new Forespar Series 93 2" combined thru-hull and seacock for the holding tank waste outlet. This is how I did i...

This is one of those 'proud dad' videos. My daughter has now graduated as a Master in Marine Biology after spending the last six months counting sharks in Mexico. She volunteered to help with Serenity's refurbishment. Here's what happened. Pt 1 of the Hol...

On this episode I install the ports on the holding tank, get all the plumbing sorted out, install the Y valves and figure out the best way to align and find the best spot for the macerator pump. The hose that leads to the Thru-hull would NOT go on so I end...

On this episode I do a dry fit of the new holding tank I am installation on my 1965 Alberg 30. I then move on to cutting out bases for the Y-Valves and finally cut an access hole in the top of my holding tank. I make my project videos on the slow side le...

On this episode I start cutting out the old head cabinet on my 1965 Alberg 30 in preparation for installing a holding tank and re-plumbing my entire head. I make my project videos on the slow side letting people see what I did and how I dealt with obstac...
