In this vlog we broke the first rule of seamanship: beware the land. We made a few HUGE mistakes including but not limited to:
1. Failing to plan
2. Trying to go into an unknown anchorage at night
3. Not turning back when we saw breakers on both sides of the channel
4. Trusting the GPS WAY more than we should have
Hands down we were foolhardy, we made multiple mistakes, and we got the reality check we needed to learn from our behavior. We came out a lot better off than maybe we deserved. We could have easily lost the boat, and although Freebie is insured, that still would have been horrible for us, for you, and for those involved in pulling the boat off the shore.
Going forward, we won’t underestimate what the land can do to ocean-going vessels, and we’ll be sure to constantly tread lightly and with care to not make these same mistakes again. This was a very humbling experience and one that we’ll never forget.

For this reason our channel is very DIY focused, with the goal to show anyone watching that a lot is possible if you’re not afraid to make some mistakes along the way.

Why Are There So Many Holes in Our Boat? | Learning the Lines

DON’T DO THIS With Your Marine Paint | Learning the Lines
I have to say that while I did literally close to everything wrong, the @TotalBoat paint still performed amazingly. If it performs this well when you do everything wrong, it must be a legendary product when you actually follow the instructions! I also went ahead and opened up the boat to prep Desp...
