Bringing Our Boat Into the 21st Century | Ep. 49
Hello! In this video, we say our goodbyes to friends in Almerimar and have an overnight sail to Estepona, further West along the coast of Spain. We pull into port there and set up camp for a few days where we make some progress on some big boat upgrades we've been wanting to do for a while, bri...
How To Finish A Mid-Refit Sail In Style | Boat Refit Documentary Part 12
They say 'absence makes the heart grow fonder' and perhaps that's true of sailing too. Although there is still a lot of work to be done on our 43-year-old Kelly Peterson 44, getting out on her again after so long on the dock has been a poignant lesson in gratitude during these challe...
Powering On! How To Turn Replacing A Switch Panel Into A Full Boat Rewire | Refit Documentary Part 8
This is the story of how we managed to turn a simple electrical panel upgrade into another major job we never intended to do 🤯🤪 Needless-to-say, things evolved (as they do on boats), in this case culminating in (almost) a complete re-wire ⚡️🔌 Our 43-year-old Peterson 44 has now undergone a transfor...

Roll ‘n’ Tip Baby! The ‘How To’ Behind Our Cockpit Re Paint | Boat Refit Documentary Part 6
For those following our refit progress in real-time, here's the full story of the cockpit refit. It's essentially about how to achieve a spray-paint-like finish on a boat without actually spray-painting. The products we used were: ✔️ Altex Epoxy High-Build Surfacer - ✔️ Awlgrip 545 Ep...
How to stay married during a boat refit | Boat Refit Documentary Part 5
Our latest real-time Vlog covers the accidental painting of our cockpit 🤪 It's accidental because it wasn't part of the original refit plan, but well, like everything else so far, we discovered parts of what we'd already worked on internally were of course connected to parts of the co...
⚠️ Painting in Progress ⚠️
This three-minute video doesn't really do justice to the phenomenal amount of work that's gone into re-painting our cockpit. Every process you see here is filmed just once, but in reality it takes place multiple times. Over the last few weeks we've done: ✔️ Multiple coats of two-pa...
Where to Next? We’re Sailing Again | Ep. 31
Hey! Welcome back. In this video, we're in the marina in Almerimar (filmed in November - we've got some delay on the videos but slowly but surely catching up to real time). We're happy to be back in the water after having hauled out. We got our new interior cushions made, we buy some ...
Happy to Escape the Boatyard | She’s Finally Ready to SPLASH | Ep. 30
Hello! In this video, we’re still in the boatyard in Almerimar and we continue with our boat jobs - including repainting the hull and repainting our boot stripe. We polish up the prop and apply a special prop antifouling to it as well. We take some time away from the boatyard to go and explore the s...
How to Beat the Boat Refit Blues | Boat Refit Documentary – Part 4
Calculate the time you think something is going to take you on a boat, then double it, and add some 🤪 That's definitely been the case with this stage of our refit, which has seemed like a Groundhog Day of fitting Laminex to interior cabinetry and bringing exterior timbers back from the dead 🤯 S...
Teak-Tok – The boat refit continues…
Never mind Tik Tok, we're all about Teak-Tok right now! Either the real deal (for a fibreglass boat we seem to have an inordinate amount of teak on board!), or the imitation teak Laminex Julian is painstakingly re-cladding all the interior cabinetry with. This is only a fraction of what's...
BIG changes to a TINY room! | Boat Life Ep. 42
Boat bathrooms definitely have a bad reputation. They're known for being smelly, damp, tiny, and while we can only work with the space we have aboard our Penelope, I think the changes we've made to this room will transform our quality of life once we set sail around the world. So far th...
How to survive an Australian summer of boat work ⛵️🥵
Welcome to Part 3 of our interior boat refit documentary series, which sees us sweat through the hottest part of the Australian summer heat 🥵 It's also where we install our first pieces of laminex, make DIY non-skid for our timberwork, and keep chasing down those deck leaks, with a whole lot of...
Deck Work
We've been taking advantage of the latest weather window to carry on chasing the leaks. This means it's been all about deck work on the good ship Brilliant II in the last 2 weeks. But while the interior may have stalled, the work topsides will be well worth it in the end. Like all boat wo...

Progress!
We're moving in the right direction 🙌 In the last couple of weeks, teak veneer has been re-installed on the major bulkheads, broken trims have been fixed, and the first coat of varnish has been applied to all the fixed timbers onboard. Now to keep on keeping calm, and varnish on!! 🤣
Keep Calm and Varnish On!
Another milestone moment reached in the interior reno - three coats of varnish on all the removable timber parts and some more leaks chased down in the rain.
How to pull apart the interior of a 43-year-old boat ⛵️🤯 (Boat Refit Documentary – Part 1)
Over the past few months, a couple of people have asked us exactly what we're doing on our interior refit, and (more importantly) how we're doing it. As a result, I've cut together the time-lapse videos we've posted to date with segments shot in real time, giving an explanation ...
Swimming in a sea of sawdust!
As well as work 💻, Christmas 🎄, New Year 🍾, and a lightning trip to Cairns, the last four weeks have been about literally swimming in a sea of sawdust. We decided to include the cabin sole ( 'floor' for landlubbers) in our interior renovation, and boy, were there days I regretted that dec...
Boat work – the new pilates!
Things we have learned in weeks 3-4 of the interior refit: 🤪 Boat work is like pilates - you need to be some kind of contortionist 🥵 Attempting a refit at the start of the Australian summer is batshit crazy 🤯 Attempting a refit while juggling work, school and any kind of life is also batshit crazy ...
