She's Leaving Me! Ep67
This time on Sailing Intermission Karen leaves for a trip to New Orleans with a friend. We are frustrated that we still don’t have our gooseneck repaired, but it’s getting close. Glad that we are making progress in getting the second AC installed. Also, met some great neighbors.
We’re installing our second air conditioner in the aft sail locker. This means building a shelf, figuring out the below waterline pump placement, running ductwork, and hooking up to power. Fortunately we have a 10 gauge wire run from a dedicated Paneltronics breaker all the way back. We’re using a 500 gph pump for a 12,000 BTU Webasto reverse cycle AC because it needs to push water through a 19 foot hose to reach the unit. We figure by the time the water gets to the Webasto it will have at least 300 gph of flow.
Our mizzen gooseneck is coming along and the machinist is working on a 316 stainless part needed to complete the project. Apparently he grew up on a sailboat and is perhaps giving us priority.

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...
