S1E20. Finally Into the Engine Room! | Sailboat Refit & Boat Work
⚓️ Finally Into the Engine Room! | Sailing & Boat Work
In this episode, we dive headfirst into long-overdue boat projects as we tackle the engine room cleanup, wiring, and battery setup. From clearing out old wood and organizing tools to planning upgrades like raising the cabin sole and installing new lighting, this is a behind-the-scenes look at the real work that keeps a sailboat running.
You’ll see:
✔️ Engine bay cleanup & prep
✔️ Battery removal + plans for a proper battery box
✔️ Wiring organization for safety & efficiency
✔️ Installing hardware around the boat (doors, anchor locker, etc.)
✔️ A much-needed deep clean of the cabin & floors
✔️ Walks and breaks with Violet 🐾
This isn’t the glamorous side of sailing, but it’s the essential foundation for bluewater cruising. Every step brings us closer to getting this boat refit and ready for adventure on the open ocean.
If you’re into sailing, liveaboard life, boat restoration, and DIY projects, you’ll love following along as we transform this tired old sailboat into a seaworthy cruiser.
