Sailboat projects on our Catalina 22

Ep. 28 ~ Sailboat electrical work, sail trimming attempt (failed) & leading all lines aftWe are back ! We had a fantastic time in Miami taking ASA 101, 103, 104 and 114. Looking forward to publishing those episodes in the coming weeks. In this episode, Donovan worked on our electrical panel, bilge pump connections and leading all our lines to the back of the boat for single handling sailing. THANK YOU STINGY SAILOR !

We also took out the sailboat for a nice afternoon trying to work on trimming the sails so the boat sails in the direction we want it to. We were not super successful.
