PREPARING TO SAIL TO ALASKA VIA JAPAN - Sailing Q&A 30
May 25, 2018 by followtheboat | Language: EN Play Time: 00:16:36 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
We are planning to sail 7500 miles from Thailand to Alaska via Japan, and we have a whole lot of work to do!
How to heat a boat. There are various options, diesel vs hot-air? Hot-air heaters are efficient and good at the job, but do they use too much power? We’re committed to a Dickinson heater, but should we also istall an Espar or Webasto?
Our Airmar triducer has kicked the bucket. Is there an alternative, how about a fish finder instead?
❤️ Fancy spreading some love? Join our crew and become a FOLLOWTHEBOAT MATE! It’ll cost you less than the price of a coffee… ☕ http://followtheboat.com/THANKS/
In this video we answer some of the comments and questions we receive from viewers on Patreon and YouTube. And here we also let you know the latest on Millie’s brush with rabies and answer your concerns about letting her off the boat.

Without your encouragement we would not be producing regular videos or be able to continue to push and stretch our imaginations, both in terms of creativity and sailing to new destinations
Thanks for watching and for coming along for the ride.

followtheboat
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
