Ep 144 | Building a Gas Locker Extension, Last Minute Jobs, Sailing Nutshell
May 24, 2019 by Life in a Nutshell | Language: EN Play Time: 00:21:21 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
With only a few days to go before we leave La Paz, Magnus builds a temporary gas locker extension out of pine. This will now mean that we can house the taller gas bottles which we have managed to find in Mexico.
Wendy keeps on with the sewing tasks, working on the cockpit cushions. The gallery gets a workout with lots of preserving of the capsicum and tomatoes into relishes and sauces.
Magnus continues to work on building the water maker and we fit the new enormous solar panel which doesn’t quite fit, so modifications have to be made to the gantry.
Another productive week.
Thanks for following along with our adventures.
Wendy and Magnus
