Preparing Our Sailboat to Leave Civilisation Behind! Ep-214
We’ve officially entered full Pacific prep mode 🌊
In this episode, we spend the day hunting down everything we need to get Escapade ready for another ocean crossing and life in remote destinations far from civilisation.
From safety gear and spare parts to haul out supplies, off-grid essentials, tools, maintenance gear and everyday living items… the boat is quickly turning into a floating warehouse again 😅
With another major passage on the horizon, we’re trying to think ahead and prepare for the reality of cruising in places where chandlery stores, Amazon deliveries and easy repairs simply don’t exist. Which means stocking up now… before we leave.
We also start getting organised for our upcoming haul out, tackle jobs around the boat and share some of the gear and upgrades we think will make life safer and easier out at sea.
