Salt & Tar: Episode 98- Not Just a Boat It's Our Home
It’s always a balance between improving the boat and improving our home. They are one in the same which makes it’s hard to separate personal and work life. The wind has been relentless (not mentioned in video) so stepping the mizzen is off until we get some calm weather. That helps push us to some household/quality of life projects. Garrett has “given me the interior” so I start in on some of my ideas. Getting the base will help set the tone for some of the things I have in mind. It’s been inspiring us both, seeing color on the walls, and Garrett’s been hard at work hooking up our fresh water system. It has been over 5 years since we lived on our last boat with running water. The trailer in Washington, where we began the build, was just an acre clearing of logging land so no running water, power, sewage, or trash. Needless to say, we’ve been “ruffing” it for a while….
Thanks for watching and helping us make this dream happen!
