A few odd jobs in this episode; Lucy finishing off the 'mock' Holding Tank, me finally gluing up the rest of the headlining, plus fixing a broken TV - but is there anything worth watching?
The moral of this short video is that anyone can fix anything and also have a good time doing it.

This video went on a bit longer than anticipated, but so did the install process. First a bit of an update, then a detailed look at fitting the new Forespar Series 93 2" combined thru-hull and seacock for the holding tank waste outlet.
This is how I did it - I am not suggesting it is how you s...

This is a job I have been putting off for ages. Stripping back all the varnished areas back to bare wood and re-varnishing. To make it fair we have split the work 50:50; I am doing all the external wood and my daughter is just doing the bits inside the boat.
Neither of us had done this before, so w...
This is one of those 'proud dad' videos. My daughter has now graduated as a Master in Marine Biology after spending the last six months counting sharks in Mexico. She volunteered to help with Serenity's refurbishment. Here's what happened.

When the strong winds stop in Marigot Bay, St Martin, the neighbourhood comes out to play in the beautiful blue water! We take a break from the boat work and enjoy a good swim and dive.

I thought I would get another short video out in June. This is just the basic preparation of Serenity to make it as easy as possible to get started on the real work. Also a bit of a test of my new 'energy regime'.
As discussed last time; Serenity is moving to be near to me so that I can (hopefully) get back into the swing of getting her voyage ready.
Lots of 'flying' in this one - shiny!

Just occasionally you need to take a step backwards and slow things down in order to get where you want faster.
No, I know that doesn't make any sense - I guess you'll just have to watch the video.

Navigation Station Build Out Part 5: DC basics and hooking it all up.
Hello Friends,
I couldn't figure out how to edit Parts 5 & 6 into one episode with out it being super long so I broke it up. This episode is short so I am actually posting two episodes this week.
On this episode I ta...
We found a $20 water filter kit which turns horrible tasting water from the boat's tank into gorgeous, sweet drinking water. This video covers the entire installation step by step. Replacement filters cost less than $4 and last us 12 months. 🔔 SUBSCRIBE ➜ Sailing Videos!

I needed to do a full operational test run, so I thought I would video it. Not the most interesting video you will ever see, but hopefully useful if you are thinking of installing one of these units.
I was particularly interested in the current draw (amps) so that I can start doing my power audit f...
This video covers the actual fitting of all the bits and the initial start-up. There is nothing too complicated here - but do comment if you have ideas that might be useful for other people. I haven't done a full test yet - in fact I haven't read the instruction manual yet. But I will put...

This is the first fit of all the new galley bits into the boat - Origo Stove, Bearmach 32 Litre Fridge and Romesco Sink. Everything is still temporary as this was a 'proof of concept' exercise. Also, I need to figure out where the ducting for the air blown heating is going to go - possibly...

In this "Boat Work" video I replace the 26-year-old saildrive diaphragm seal on our boat. I disconnect the saildrive from the engine, move the engine forward, then remove the saildrive assembly from the boat. I then split the saildrive leg from the ...
We will just take it as read that any comments to this video will start with, "...a blindfolded drunk giraffe on a rollercoaster could have done that better..." Anyway despite the mistakes, the boat is now waterproof when it rains for the first time ever. I also managed to complete this ...
This is the first of a two part project. I decided to make a holding tank from glass fibre covered plywood. Partly because of cost, but also to make sure I can get the exact shape and fit that I want. Seemed like a good idea at the time.
