#83 - ALWAYS work to do!! Even when you're SICK!
Welcome to episode 83 of Sailing Melody.
In this weeks episode we’re stuck at home trying to get on with some boat related projects while feeing really quite unwell. There’s always plenty to do though, we removed a lot of stuff from Melody when we first acquired her and now all that equipment has to be refurbished in order to refit.

This is a huge refit and refurbishment of this big, old, abandoned steel yacht and it’s not only time consuming, it’s complicated and quite expensive so we really do value any help we can get, whether it’s helpful advice and comments on the video or gifts through our Amazon Wishlist or actual contributions through Patreon, Paypal and Ko-Fi.
We want to say a HUUUUUUUGE thank you to everyone who has contributed in any way!
