Spring is here and thus so is spring cleaning. Isabella is covered in pollen causing Karen to begin to clean the boat.

We fly back to Leros island in Greece where we left Wishful Thinking for the European winter on the hard at Moor and Dock Boatyard. We get straight into boat work to prepare to launch her for our second sailing season. Below the waterline we remove rust on the keel, replace some thru hulls, fibregla...
We replace two of our electric bilge pumps, rebuild our manual Guzzler 500 bilge pump, replace float switches, hoses, change out check valves for vented loops, and well...are you reading this? Just seeing if you're actually reading this? If so post a comment and let me know you're actual...
The Domino Effect...changing batteries turns into building a new box (or two) turns into finding rotten wood, turns into wood replacement and a fiberglass job...oh and then there's wiring, bilge pumps, hoses. Yep, time to get some projects done.

It’s time. Magnus decides that he needs to start disconnecting the engine from Nutshell. It’s a laborious task but he eventually manages to do it.
Then it’s off to the lock towed by three dinghies. It’s a tricky journey with million dollar yachts surrounding us!
We eventually get the engine out of...
We continue to get the boat ready for the cruising season as we only have a couple of weeks left on our contract, so it is not the best when the bilge pump breaks!

Building a boat can seem like an incredibly daunting task. One thing that has gotten us through these years is seeing it a lot of little things that need to be done and pieces that need to go together. This episode is very much dedicated to that ideology.

I woke up this morning to a bilge FULL of water. In this video I show how I diagnosed and repaired the automatic bilge pump in our liveaboard Catalina 30 sailboat.
My least favorite thing to do! Clean the bilge. It's a dirty job but somebody has to do it. We currently have two bilge pumps, a Rule 2000 and a Seaward 750. The 750 is placed lower so it comes on first. The float switch on the 2000 is placed higher so it only comes on if the boat is taking on...

The wood finally arrives at the boat so that they can begin the galley refit! The plan is to build sep...
This week we pulled the trigger and took home a little Dominican puppy. We have seen first hand how well a dog can protect a boat plus they are just so fun. Of course it will be more work and potty training could be fun but we are up for it. We also knock out some important boat projects this week, ...

It was a beautiful sail... until we found water in the bilges and the autopilot started screaming, again!
