Installing a MARINE AIR CONDITIONER From ALIBABA...GAME CHANGER or a BIG MISTAKE?! Ep 193
Jase is back in the US, which means it’s upgrade time! After months of waiting, we can finally dive into all the projects we’ve been holding off on — because let’s be honest, there’s no better place for Amazon boxes and endless options than America.
This week, Jase tackles a full list of long-awaited boat upgrades: a telescopic table leg, a smart TV, an electric toilet conversion, and most importantly... a marine air conditioner we bought from Alibaba in China. Will this budget-friendly unit be a total game changer — or a big mistake waiting to happen?
Meanwhile, Janaye’s back on board after more than a month away in Australia, and the band’s officially back together.
👉 SUBSCRIBE to follow our sailing adventures, DIY projects, and life aboard as we keep pushing to make this boat a proper floating home.
