We tied up a few loose ends on Isabella:
The seacock in the aft head had seized. With much lube and flexing back and forth we were able to make it easy to open/close. Karen finished cleaning and oiling the teak toe rail all the way around the boat. Did a ...
For the Thanksgiving holiday we visited family in San Diego. Had a great time walking on the beach and seeing seals. The San Diego Zoo was simply wild. We even managed to squeeze in the Griffith Observatory, Getty Museum, a ferry ride to and overnight stay...
We went tripping and ended up in Dallas for a short stay. Karen cleaned rust stains off the deck. The shackle bolt came loose releasing the mizzen boom which then crashed into our solar panel. Fortunately, there was a line on the end and it was a soft land...
This week was doubling up, holes for a clamp. With tropical storm Nicole moving nearby, we added extra dock lines in preparation of some big blows. We have 1 5/8" stern rails. Since clamps of that size are hard to find off the shelf, it gave Steve an oppor...
Steve installs aluminum steps on the Mizzen mast. We now have three steps. This will make it so much easier and safer when attaching the halyard to the sail. Clean up after completing a project is always essential and Karen uses our new cordless vacuum to ...
After returning from the Annapolis Sailboat Show it's time for some R&R by going to the beach. Being lucky enough to get a great boat show price on a new tool, the WinchRite, we review it's features. It makes every winch an electric winch. Isabella's d...
We took too long hunkering for the hurricane and fixing our loss of RPM problem. So Isabella headed back to port instead of continuing to Annapolis. We said goodbye to Petra and flew to the boat show. Ran into a lot of subscribers, did our time in the Sail...
We leave our safe harbor near Savannah and consider ourselves lucky for not pushing on to Charleston. A weird trip. Had planned to sail to Annapolis. Between waiting for a mechanic and hunkering down for Hurricane Ian our plans changed.
Headed back to sou...
This time on Sailing Intermission we stayed near Savannah to wait for Hurricane Ian to pass. We were very lucky as the storm went around us and sent only some wind and rain our way. When the hurricane was a day away we thought about racing ahead to Charles...
We’ve started our journey to Annapolis, MD. After leaving Georgia we traveled to St. Catherine’s Sound Inlet. Due to an unfavorable wind direction we chose not to raise the sails. And doubly unfortunate the engine would not reach maximum rpm. Changed o...
This time on Sailing Intermission Steve finishes strengthening the davits or should we say sheerlegs.
We traveled to Dallas for some face-to-face business. Staying two nights at the circa 1922 Magnolia Hotel gave us enough time to visit our old dancing cl...
This time our adventure was a little wet. We spent a lot of time cranking up the generator for the first time. It should have been done before but we found out the generator strainer was leaking. The strainer to the rear AC was dirty and needed cleaning.

Our life on a sailboat. Fix, fix, fix, haha. We corrected the fact that our water pump was cycling too much. Spruced up the teak toe rail. During a hot and humid day our A/C kept throwing an error. Turns out we had to replace the water pump.
We're getting...

We're moving north to Annapolis via Georgia. Had a late start on July 26th due to weather. Was run out of the channel by a very large cargo ship. The wind died. We had to motor a lot. Headed to Ponce De Leon Inlet and was hit by a squall. Got stuck on a sa...
This time on Sailing Intermission, Steve added some extra lighting in the salon. You can never have too much light on a boat. We went sailing in some light winds…still fun! Karen’s newest tattoo is healing nicely. Worked on our Force 10 stove, made a g...
This time on Sailing Intermission Karen gets a real tattoo. We raised our new Neil Pryde mainsail and cruised in some beautiful blue water. So much fun getting to sail again! The plants on Isabella get a little maintenance. And you know, we did some dancin...

We diagnosed and fixed a leak. Went gambling but not. Danced, drank, and saw a rocket ship booster. We are still working with heads. Will it ever stop? Karen gets a Henna tattoo near her ....... We just want to leave and go sailing.
Hey, subscribers, than...
Hello to our subscribers and viewers. In this episode of Sailing Intermission, we clean our dinghy bottom full Brazilian style. Karen does the monthly maintenance of changing the 5-micron charcoal filter. After having several guests visit, we discovered th...
