GET US OUT OF HERE! (Not long now)
After a relaxing Christmas and New years with family it's time to have another crack at this vessel and finally finally finally get out for some cruising. This week while trying to survive running on next to no sleep and having at times two screaming babies we're getting stuck into the job...
Sailboat refit COST! (How much did we spend?)
Bringing this Amel Super Maramu (one of the greatest blue water cruisers built in the 90's and 00's) back to life after a huge accident with a container ship has been nothing short of a crazy roller coster. This we look into the cost of it all and figure out if we have made a good investme...
FINALLY WE”RE LEAVING THIS MARINA … or are we
Finally after 18 months in the marina we are departing to get back into cruising life. Yes we've worked ourselves hard, sweated it out and lost a lot of sleep to not only the boat but our twin babies as well. This week we are kissing our problems good buy with the horizon as our destination.......
Just call us CRUISERS AGAIN
Yes, after 18 months, newly born twin babies, and a whole lot of sweating and swearwords we have finally made it out onto the water under our own propulsion and MAN does it feel good.

OUR LAST JOB IS COMPLETE!
To be perfectly honest we haven't much enjoyed our time on the hard, sweating it out in the middle of the tropics, fixing up a broken boat with baby twins requiring huge amounts of our attention. I guess thats why this week we are soooo super stoked to finally see our engine working! Yes, it�...
These moments have us EXCITED!
Another week and we're splashed well and truly hopefully for the last time in a long while. We assess the common leak that has been annoying us for so long and the engine in finally being finished (kind of). Join the crew Our patrons are the ones that make this all possible and without them,...
Uncontrolled launching (NO ENGINE!) Yikes!
Another week in the yard and another ground hog day hahaha. No I'm sure you've heard us say this before but we can't wait to get out of here and getting launched in the water (for a second time) is a huge step towards this. With the manager coming in on a Sunday to drop us in we hadn&...
This LEAK has us HAULED OUT again
Yep, you heard that right, after 12 months on the hard and one month in the water we are getting hauled out again! Kieran's frustration really comes out when an experienced shipright insstructs him to replace the whole stuffing box, a job that would take a number of months. Join the crew Our...
We’ve got a LEAK! WHAT NOW?!
Toilets jobs, leaking sailing boat and hot humid Malaysian heat, does it get any better I ask you!? Yes diving head first into a constant "head" (or toilet) issue we've been facing for a couple weeks its surprisingly not that fun... After launching some three weeks ago we noticed a le...

NEWLY REBUILT ENGINE GOING IN!
After 12 months rebuilding our Perkins M80-t engine we're happy to say that most of it is being dropped in the vessel this week. When I say most of it the mechanic has found an issue with the head which requires further repair. On top of the fantastic engine job we also have a water leak and to...

Make the SAILBOAT GREAT again
Another week in the marina and its time to get the boat ready to move onto. Getting systems like the grey water sump pump and the air conditioning working is imperative before moving onboard Merewether. While replacing the old fuel also needs doing before our newly rebuild engine gets installed. Jo...

Why we CAN’T LIVE on our SAILBOAT
Ahh yes the endless jobs continue and this week we are finally getting around to sticking on the name of Merewether. Working through the jobs list does get harder and harder with the babies really slowing us down. But finding determination and. perseverance we keep going. Our rebuilt engine is only ...
“It came, it finally came!”
Happy to say that our 53 foot sailing vessel did not sink on her first night in the water after 12 months on land haha. The leak that first started as we hit the water seems to have stopped for now and with any luck it will not come back. The boats jobs are far from finished. This week Kieran goes a...

COMPLETING the last JOBS before SPLASH DAY!
This week we finalise everything that needs to be done before she goes in the water. The bow thruster is acting up so Kieran has to manually put in a pully system to get it in the up position. The dirty sump in the engine room gets a good scrub and the anchor chain gets lifted on to the boat again. ...

Measuring up our Selden mast in paradise
This week we put our mast on, well kind of. We are hoisting the mast onto the boat to measure the stays for a short time before laying it back down again. This process is key to making sure all the stays are swagged at the perfect length. We also have a little adventure day, at Pangkor island, soaki...
