Let's do a bit of a tour of the boat. We go fore to aft and point out all the things we need to fix on the boat, and all the things we just want to fix or add.

We have finally dismantled enough of the cabins to start grinding the bulkheads. This is by far the worst job we have done on a boat. The whole inside of the ...

As if things couldn't get any worse, we pull off the plywood trim to discovery that the bulkheads were actually completely rotten from being wet, on both ...

The final survey is complete, and we passed! He had very little to comment on, only a handful of things to correct and none of them major. Lots of hose clamps

This is our backstory.. and how we found Tucana - our dream boat! We also experience our first hail storm and we get vinegar in our water tanks. Yuck!

The repairs are finished and we think we are ready. Our surveyor is coming in the morning and we are in a rushed panic to get everything ready.

After finding cracked bulkheads on my Lagoon 450 catamaran, right when we were about to sail across the pacific, we had to turn around, come back through the ...

Well here it is, WITH SAILS installed! We finally hoist the sails and take a look at what we've accomplished.

Well, after 4 months of delays, it's finally time to get the mast stepped! The weather is cold, and it even starts SNOWING while they climb the mast...

Our freshly fixed boat manages to runs aground sitting in its slip, we get our mast hauled to a different yard, and we get the interior of the boat picked up..

It's time we get all the gel coat and fiberglass dust out of the boat so we can move in! The dust got EVERYWHERE but with an air compressor, a lot of rags..

We're pushing towards becoming a sailboat again and turning this now floating boat into our home. Every panel, screw, bolt feels like a win and we're loving it.

New beginning, here we come.

It's Launch Day! We've spent the past many months sanding, grinding, glassing, painting, sweating, crying, and lots of laughing...all to get to today.

Back on track with our steel sailboat refit! 📺 THIS IS DAWN HUNTERS SEASON #1 EPISODE #55 ➡️ S1E55 ⛵WANT TO KEEP VIDEOS COMING? SUPPORT OUR PRODUCTION ...

It's the final days before we launch. Dana and Lou come to help. Brett gets home from a work trip and we wind up in the air.

This country was never on our original route to sail around the world, but because of........you know, it becomes part of our sailing and travel journey. We ...

Our bilge has been completely rebuilt. And now it's time to use whatever it takes to make it smooth. Fairing, sanding, painting, flow coat? peel ply? Who knows.

We make a mad dash between two storms, sailing fast for 400 miles in 2 days/nights through Venezuelan waters. Max winds of 38.4 knots, un-identified lights, ...

WE DID IT!! With that last bit of fiberglass we have completely finished the repairs of our salvage yacht! Cleaning, fairing, painting, and reassembling to do.

Jade has to finish sanding off the old bottom paint before painting all 50 feet of boat by herself. There's a first time for everything!

Pressure washing helped, but it's time to get to work with some sanders, scrapers, paint stripper, oh and we even try an air compressor and soda blaster (lol).

We rented the best professional pressure washer we could find to blast the antifouling bottom paint off our boat. It worked AMAZING for most of it...

Installing our rudder once again...This is a huge step in restoring our salvaged sailboat back to her former glory. It really should have been pretty easy...
