S1E50. Fixing Leaks, Electrical Problems & Boat Life with Violet
The reality of living aboard an old sailboat? Sometimes you're fixing leaks... sometimes you're chasing electrical gremlins... and sometimes you're just trying to make dinner before everything falls apart. 😂
In this episode of Sailing UV, we tackle flickering galley lights, track down water intrusion from leaking pilothouse windows, start the process of re-bedding those windows, take Violet out for some much-needed exercise, and continue making this old world cruiser a little more comfortable while we work toward our circumnavigation dream.
Boat projects never seem to end, but every repair gets us one step closer to getting underway.
If you've ever owned a boat, lived in an RV, renovated a house, or chased a dream on a budget, you'll probably relate to this one.
⚓ Thanks for being part of the journey.

⚓ ABOUT SAILING UV
I'm Jonathan, and together with my dog Violet, we're rebuilding and refitting a classic cruising sailboat while living aboard full-time.
The goal?
To get this boat back where she belongs: out on the water and eventually circumnavigating the globe.
Every week brings new boat projects, marina life, repairs, upgrades, setbacks, victories, and plenty of adventures with Violet along the way.
Thanks for being here.
