Episode 35:
What was supposed to be our final stretch before crossing the Atlantic has turned into a full-on breakdown. This episode, we’re getting hands-on with our boat—ripping up floorboards, dismantling parts, and even taking down the sails—to get a closer look at what lies beneath. Every new layer we uncover shows us just how much work we still have ahead, and while it feels strange, each step brings a small sense of relief.
It’s not the journey we planned, but it’s where we are now. Thanks for joining us as we dive deep into this unexpected path. Your support and encouragement keep us going, especially on days when progress feels painfully slow. Don't forget to subscribe and stay tuned as we continue tackling one challenge at a time!

We made it through… but not without a fight.
