This boating trip has been a blend of mundane maintenance and delightful discoveries. Days were filled with the familiar rhythms of boat life: defrosting the refrigerator, scrubbing the cockpit, and facing the inevitable challenges of onboard repairs. A leaking generator pump added a layer of discomfort, especially in the cooler weather, but Steve installed a new pump which made it so we could run the heaters in the cooler weather.
The fuel tank woes, however, proved more serious. A hefty 170 gallons of fuel had to be removed, the tank thoroughly dried, and then refilled at an estimated cost of $660. While frustrating, this unexpected expense was a reminder of the inherent costs of boat ownership.
Yet, amidst the challenges, there were some nice moments like spotting gentle manatees is always a magical encounter. Evenings at the slip were spent savoring delicious meals at local restaurants. These experiences, however fleeting, served as a reminder that the true rewards of boating lie in the unexpected adventures and the simple pleasures of life on the water.

See in the Dark Ep235
Out on the water after dark, what you can’t see ahead of the bow can be the biggest danger. This week, we set out to give Isabella eyes in the night—and the result was remarkable. After mounting our new bow camera in the last video, we connected it to the Garmin 8610 chartplotter. That meant Karen c...
She’s a Gypsy Woman Ep234
We've got gypsy magic! Previously we shared the skipping of our anchor chain as the Lofrans Falkon windlass deployed/pulled up the anchor. We drove to Charleston, South Carolina and picked up the new 376E gypsy that matches our 1/2" G4 anchor chain. It was a little wider than the old gypsy...

Hard & Wet Ep232
Gremlins on board???? We’re starting to think so as two main DIY projects have yet to be completed. This week has been a bit trying to say the least. The gypsy on the Lofrans windlass has always skipped a little when bringing up the anchor. Over time it has gotten much worse. We think it is a misma...
