Another Bad Week In The Shipyard
This week hit hard. After being told the marina would cover the damage they caused during our haul out—damaging our sail drive and prop—we got a call no boat owner wants: the general manager overruled the previous decision. Now, we're left with the full bill. Another crushing blow in what’s felt like a never-ending uphill battle to get our new home ready to sail.
While waiting for our new prop to arrive, we kept grinding away on other boat projects, trying to stay focused and productive. But it’s tough when all we want is to start living aboard, set sail, and head south before hurricane season really ramps up.
Thanks for sticking with us through the chaos. Your support means more than you know.📺 Watch the full episode to see how we're pushing through, project by project.👇 Drop a comment and let us know what you would’ve done in our situation.

Some Problems Follow You Across Oceans
We inherited our alternator problems when we bought Big Lost in Florida—and somehow, they've traveled with us through the Caribbean, across the Panama Canal, over the Pacific, and all the way to French Polynesia. We've fixed things. Broken things. Learned things. Taken steps forward and a...
