The battle of owning an old steel sailboat. Rust busting and welding on SV Joana - UNTIE THE LINES
WhiteSpotPirates
Hi, my name is Nike. With my videos I would like to inspire others to grab hold of their dreams and make them reality. I have always been drawn to the ocean and fascinated by the humbling experience of living close to nature. I had a faint idea that I was made for another lofe than the one that the people around me expected me to live. One day, I dared to follow this instinct and bought a neglected sailboat in Panama that I named KARL. My life turned into a wild rollercoaster of challenges that pushed me way beyond my comfort zone and moments of unknown bliss and inner peace. Over the past years, I had to learn many new skills and tunred my old silboat into a once again sea worthy vessel. My floating home enables me to live off grid in remote places, powered by the sun and moved by the wind. Join me on my jounrey exploring life`s options in the persuit of happiness and purpose.

Welcome to Untie The Lines! my name is Nike, I bought an aluminum 37 foot sailboat in Panama in 2013 that I named KARL. I spent a good year refitting it, mostly by myself and with the help of awesome friends, and then (mostly) solo sailed my sailboat around the western Caribbean.
In 2016, I crossed the Panama Canal, had a major engine break down, a near sinking experience and a serious foot injury which got me stuck along the Pacific coast of Central and South America.
In this Episode, I help my friend Maria with some of the maintanance of her 72 foot steel sailboat Joana. Rust is the constant enemy of any steel boat owner, so we are chipping away on some of her chainplates and give them some fresh coats of primer and paint and we weld shut some holes that have formed from water sitting alongside the edge of a piece of wood mounted against the steel.
Between boat jobs, we get a lovey visit from some jolly friends from the neighboring island Isla de Rey who bring laughter and joy to Joana.
Enjoy and Ahoy,
Nike & Karl
