Episode 19 documents Donovan's hard work, ok, I helped a little.... completely taking apart our back stay and rebuilding it correctly. We also did some repairs to the boom, which was damaged during our last sailing adventure.
In our series, we are learning everything there is to know about sailboat repairs and sailing so we can eventually upgrade to a bigger boat, move in and travel the world by water.
We recommend the following Facebook Groups with incredibly patient and knowledgeable people:
- All things sailing
- Catalina 22 Sailboat Owners
- WTF is this thing on my boat
We also recommend the following YouTube channels, which have been immensely helpful during the last 7 months or so since we began this adventure.
