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 is going to come flying off, or the cutlass bearing slid in there wayyy too easily, let us know in the comments…)

Bums on a Boat
Bums on a Boat is a story. It starts with reckless abandon, throwing all caution to the wind. Just bloody go for it and see what happens. It's not pretty but it sure is exciting. We wanted to live an alternative way of life, no more 9 to 5, no more playing by the rules. This is adventure, sailing with no previous experience, fixing a sailboat with no skills and sailing the world with little money. Living as if there really were no tomorrow. Feeling freedom in the mind and body. Look how we want, talk how we want and live how we want. Everything has a price. Love became a beautiful part of this story but it ended in heartbreak. Now only I (Joel) remain. These are the Tales of BOAB!
