For those of you that missed us, becoming a Patron enables us to ensure the continuity of Slim & Soph – Sailing Nakama. We’ve gotta cover the bills somehow and this influenced our decision to take a break from editing in order to finance the repairs. A little goes a long way to keep this production alive. With very little free time between uni and the boat, Patreon enables us to focus on creating and posting videos rather than pouring beers at our local.

Welcome to part 2 of our mini-series ‘Where the F*&k Did We Go?’, in this weeks episode we are back at it with the boat jobs. As part of Slim’s annual tradition as primary anchor guy aboard Nakama, he has pulled the chain out to remark it as well as adding some more length to our rode as part of our remote prep. After a couple of windy days, our Cel-fi-go antenna broke off and hung from the top of our mast banging on our rigging. This minor inconvenience led us to an unfortunate discovery. However, with a pre-existing date with the hardstand, this will just have to hold on because this old girl is getting her booty scrubbed.
