Everything for routine boat work, catastrophic breakdowns, and provisioning for long passages. You can find it ALL here... but only if you know where to look!
So c'mon, buckle up, we're Bums on a Boat and we've been here a WHILE. We'll show you where to ...
This episode is all business.
Sailboat drive train business.
Our boat is starting to look more like... well, a boat. We are plugging holes left and right!
Of course, this installation wasn't without the head-scratcher or two.
(If you think the coupler...
POOF!

I bet your therapist wouldn't recommend becoming a bum on a boat... but it helped us to put our lives into a different perspective and gain s...
Our old gal finally has a sturdy rudder!
What?!
So close, but still so far away (how it seems) . . . A bit of a road block with our steering gear, but nevertheless we will prevail.
Stay tuned guys, she's nearly wet!! Wait . . . that didn't sound right...
WARNING: This episode is going to get a little graphic. There's a least one quart of sweat involved, a little bit of profanity, and we're horrified to have nearly ran over a baby turtle.
But the Edson steering installation is finally complete!!
_________...
This episode has it all!
Engine control installation...
The best European swim suit (for men)...
& A MIRACULOUS Weather Window!
Wind from the West?! We've never seen anything like it.

We went back and forth MANY times during this past year in the boatyard. And now, we've found our happy place between the bare minimum of GOOD ENOUGH and the impossibility of PERFECTION.
