Splash Day Is Finally Here! | Countless Hours of Boat Work Led to This Moment
After months of hard work, it’s finally time to launch our 33 foot sailboat, Lady Four! 💦⛵️
In this video, we finalize the necessary boat projects before splash day – that includes painting antifouling, installing our new plotter, testing out our new fresh salon cushions, and making some interior updates. Shoutout to @bushpoint for helping us out! 🫶
We’ve been dreaming of this moment for so long, and now it’s here!🥹 We’re almost ready to move aboard and start our sailing adventure toward the Mediterranean! But first we will start to warm up in the Swedish archipelago. 🇸🇪
Who are we?
We're Linn, Erik, and our little dachshund Nora – a couple (and a dog) from Sweden fixing up our sailboat Lady Four to live aboard and sail from Sweden to the Mediterranean.
