MOVING A SAILBOAT IN A GALE - SAILING FOLLOWTHEBOAT Ep 118
July 26, 2018 by followtheboat | Language: EN Play Time: 00:17:07 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
Moving a sailboat in a gale, is it dangerous? Jamie and Millie didn’t feel safe as Esper swung around in her cradle. Sometimes life on the hard is hard!

Here on Sailing Followtheboat we like to make life difficult for ourselves, so while Esper was swinging from the travel lift, her crew cowered below decks. Not the best day to drop in the water by travel lift.
Dodger update: with the hard bimini now in place, it was time to see how our dodger boat project was looking in the water. It needed to be angled forward…
Sailboat maintenance: all those small jobs we had neglected now began in earnest. We began our boat maintenance by cleaning and servicing the bilge system, added a new bilge valve and checking the float switch.
When will it end? We just want to go sailing!
Peace and fair winds to each and every one of you.

We've been blogging, vlogging and podcasting about living on our boat since 2005. If you love travel, sailing, fishing, diving and photography this might be the channel for you... Each week we post a 15-20 minute snapshot of what we did. It might cover anything from sailing, travelling, meeting people, fishing, cooking, shopping in exotic markets or hanging out on a tropical beach, to boat maintenance (there's a lot of that when you live on a boat) and tackling challenges or bureaucratic conundrums. There's also a fair bit of photography and diving. Even though the world continues to throw spanners at us, we love being perpetual travellers. And we've never regretted making the big leap into this alternative lifestyle for even a nanosecond. If we make you laugh or inspire you, then these videos haven't been a total waste of time. Pop round to the pub and share a drink with us... https://followtheboat.com/pub/ Jamie and Liz xx
