S1E48 . I CUT A WALL OUT OF My Sailboat… and It Changed Everything
This week on Sailing UV, I got tired of squeezing into a weird little fiberglass cave every day… so I grabbed the tools and CUT PART OF THE BOAT OUT. 😅
No massive budget. No fancy upgrades. Just trying to make this old boat a little more comfortable while we wait on expensive parts, save for bigger projects, and keep pushing toward our goal:
⚓ Refit the boat.
🌎 Sail away.
🐕 Bring Violet everywhere.
We also head to work at the boatyard, help dock neighbors with projects, survive marina life, and keep slowly turning this neglected boat into something worth crossing oceans in.
The transmission is getting closer…
The bigger upgrades are coming…
And before long, this old girl will be moving under her own power again.
If you're into sailboat restoration, liveaboard life, boatyard work, dogs on boats, DIY projects, or watching people slowly lose their minds rebuilding old boats… welcome aboard. 😅
