Welcome back to Sailing UV — the greatest sailing show on earth! 🌊
This week we're getting dragged back to work, and things get a little more serious than your average boat project.
We start with a boat that came in with an electrical problem — an engine that was randomly losing voltage and s...
Welcome back to Sailing UV — the greatest sailing show on Earth! 🌎⛵
UV is our 1996 Henry Morgan 57, a 57-foot catch-rigged project boat that we're slowly bringing back to life and eventually getting ready to chase some BIG sailing dreams.
But there's just one problem…
We're spendin...
⚓ Welcome back to Sailing UV!
This week you're coming to work with us.
From installing electronics on brand-new fishing boats, working on massive yacht refits, checking out beautiful wooden classics at Spalding Boat Works, chasing Violet around the dog park, and finally bringing home a $7,000...
Some people clock out after work...
I spend all day repairing other people's boats... then come home and work on my own until dark.
In this episode of Sailing UV, you'll come along for another week of life balancing a full-time job in a professional boatyard while slowly bringing our neg...
🚤 What does a day in the life of a boat builder actually look like?
This week on Sailing UV, you're coming along for a full day—from waking up on our 57-foot ketch project boat with Violet, making coffee aboard, heading into the boatyard, installing electronics, diesel heaters, joystick contro...
Welcome back to Sailing UV ⛵🐾
The greatest sailing show on Earth… according to Violet anyway 😅
If you’re new here — I’m Jonathan, and alongside my giant dog Violet, we’re restoring this old sailboat for a future circumnavigation. Every week gets us one step closer to finally setting sail.
And this...
This one cabinet will eventually power our entire catamaran.
Last episode we installed our two Victron MultiPlus II units, officially kicking off the installation of our electrical system. Now we’re moving on to the cabinet where all of our breakers will live — the place that will ultimately distri...
We’re getting ready to sail from the UK to Europe as Magnus sits his CEVNI exam, tackles wiring breakthroughs and sorts out last‑minute boat jobs on Little Nutshell. A storm rolls in while we wait on lithium batteries and solar panels before our North Sea crossing.
We leave Suffolk Yacht Club and h...
In todays video we re-wired half of our boat, put new batteries in, as well as clean up a ton of unsafe, crappy old wiring. Hope you enjoy and sorry it took so long to post a video...gotta get back in the groove!!
Installing our new 4000 watt Sungoldpower Inverter/Charger/Solar Controller combination unit in our 1989 Irwin 38 MKII Sailboat and wiring it to all the outlets in the boat. Special thanks to @Sailboatstory

It can be hard to know for sure just how much power a boat needs to run all the systems you want. Completing an electrical power audit can help you determine just how much power your boat will need to run the systems you want, or can help you discover exactly which equipment is draining your batter...
Modern boats are a complex mix of marine power systems. It can be daunting trying to figure out what everything means and if you will have enough power to run all the equipment you have aboard.
We're going to start a new Marine Electrical Systems 101 series that will start with the basics and...
Thanks for watching everyone!

Talk about chaining yourself to the dock!
After nine months, 18 days, 10 hours and 20 minutes of our boat being immobile (thanks to the scale of the refit), we finally managed to take her sailing.
It was a massive push to get her out and in a condition that was temporarily liveable, without throwin...
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...

We tackle the mystery and maze of wiring and plumbing behind the wall and under the floor aboard our sailboat, Makara. We move and rewire the batteries, run new wiring for the windlass, tackle some plumbing mysteries and finally get our new laminate countertop installed in the galley!
_____________...
Our last big job before we could go sailing again, was to tackle some of the wiring on the lass. We only tackled from the back of the boat to the control panel, but we added an auto helm, a new chart plotter and removed a whole load of wiring from projects, have started and never completed.
