A day in life (in a boatyard  ) / Sailing Aquarius

Living on the hard is by far the least pleasant part of living on a boat. It’s like doing a mini-remodel of your tini-house, which hopefully is only necessary every 2 years. One also needs to remember that you have to repair/upgrade/or service all the systems…. WaterMaker, Engine, GenSet, BowThruster, Bilge Pumps, water pumps, water heater, aircons, refrigerators, etc, plus all the cosmetics. Check all the through holes, and do a basic run-through the entire boat. It is not easy, even if some of the work is done by the professionals. For us it’s a 3rd time out Aquarius hit the hard: fist was in Trinidad after acquiring and owning Aquarius for 6 months; then “unscheduled” one in Panama after a working boat ran into us, and this one was just too good to resist – New Zealand is known world wide for their boat works at competitive prices, especially if you compare them with remote places like Tahiti. Let’s not forget – in New Zealand we have a car, which makes this process easier plus everyone speaks english! Which makes so much easier to explain what you want to get done on your boat 🙂 We also wanted to take few weeks away and visit home as well few weeks to drive around New Zealand. In this case, this is the safest and cheapest way to leave Aquarius on it’s own…
We hauled out at Port Whangarei Marine Center, and filmed one day on the hard – just a regular day running many errands and doing boring stuff – just to prove that sailing is not only sunshine and turquoise waters… But much of the time it is Sunshine and Rainbows! 🙂 Fair winds crew!

Thanks so much for watching 🙏
