What did we get ourselves into? | Refitting Our 20yr old Sailboat
To say that we have a lot of work ahead of us is an understatement!
Now that we are in the thick of things we are getting a real idea of what needs to be done on Honu. It’s not just about scraping and painting the bottom. The game is the same just the players have changed a bit. Nothing like adding a couple more projects to the already long list of boat jobs. Just have to learn to pivot and go with the flow when it comes to refitting a boat.
We have had the opportunity to learn so much more about repairing our sailboat in the last couple of days, and Jimmy of Port Urbanna Boatworks has been an invaluable source of knowledge. Josh knew a bit about fiberglass work but not in the detail that we needed to reconstruct our rudder situation. Once again, our boat guru was there to guide us along the way. We would have been days behind with deconstruction, instead of the intense 48hrs it took. A lot of that has to do with the go gett’m attitude we have, but also learning the little tricks to get things done more efficiently.
The days seem to be all running into each other as we start at sun up and don’t finish till it goes back down again. We have a goal, not a plan, of getting back in the water in 14 days. So it’s back to blue faces and sore backs till we get it done.
We can’t complain though, we are having so much fun living our dream of living on a sailboat.
