#73t Part 1-Boat Life Checks - 100 Point Annual and One MONTH Before Passage|Sailing Sisu Leopard 45
March 02, 2020 by Sailing Sisu | Language: EN Play Time: 00:27:05 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
This week we share our 100 Point Check Annually and One Month Before Passage. This is part of boat life, but one can also use this list when buying a second hand or old boat. You will still need a surveyor off course, but it will for sure give you a good estimate and overview of what the condition of the boat is for blue water cruising. There are really more than 100 points to check, and because we try to show you the practical side of it, it takes time. We were force to make it into two parts of roughly 50 points each and roughly 30 minutes each episode. We cover in detail each of the following categories in this episode:
General
Hull
Deck and Fittings
Below Decks
Electrical System and Components
Next episode:
Required and Recommended Equipment
Head & Holding Tank System
Engines (in brief will full coverage in one separate episode)
Fresh Water System
Galley
Steering
Dock Lines and Fenders

We purchased a Leopard 45 Catamaran to sail around the world and now we are going through the preparations of getting her kitted out for our needs. We want to visit off the beaten tack places and need to prepare for ice bergs, storms, heavy seas, as well as nice tranquil tropical waters…
Follow us on our journey as we learn from legends when Sailing La Vagabonde upgraded from a monohull to a catamaran…SV Delos wants to upgrade to the latest Amel 51 monohull….Gone with the Wynns chose a Leopard Catamaran….choices choices choices. We looked at other sailing channels such as Wicked Salty, Satori, Jessica and Ryan, Catamaran Impi, MJ Sailing, Happy Together, Sailing Uma, Sailing Yacht Ruby Rose, Zingaro, Miss Lone Star, Sailing Doodles, Drenched, Lucky Fish gets Away, RAN Sailing, Out Chasing Star, Follow the Boat, Rigging Doctor, Sailing Lady Africa, Abandon Comfort, and many others to find our answers and solutions, whilst we prepared our yacht in Cape Town, South Africa.

Sailing Sisu
We are two crazies from South Africa, Frik & Petro. We knew absolutely nothing about sailing, but the ocean has always been calling. So we got rid of all our stuff, bought a Leopard 45 Catamaran, and set sail. Follow us as this story unfolds! This is a sea-life adventure captained by a couple of nomads who have built their lives on doing what inspires them in the moment. Join us and see how we break free of the traditional lifestyle, creating videos of our journey, adventures, life on board, and lessons learned along the way. It will be super rewarding if we can be an inspiration or contribute in any way to anybody wanting to fulfill their dreams. SISU (Finnish concept) is a grim, gritty, white-knuckle form of courage in situations where success is against the odds. Taking action against the odds and displaying courage and resoluteness in the face of adversity, in other words, deciding on a course of action and then sticking to that decision even despite repeated failures.
