We sail around the world on a boat. And boats need LOTS of work. So when we got back to Starry Horizons after six weeks of traveling around Australia, what did we have waiting for us? You guessed it... MORE work!
Our big projects had been completed before we left, but we still needed to get our...
Randi left me for six days to go visit her sister in Oregon, giving me the opportunity to push my work ethic to it's limit. I'm challenging myself to get as much work done as possible while she's gone, so that when Randi returns she will be amazed.
In this vlog I painted the bottom a...
In this vlog we replace our cutlass bearing in a very unconventional way. We really wish we could have done it the "right" way but previous galvanic corrosion of the strut really made us feel as though we shouldn't remove the old bearing jacket for fear of damaging what little strut w...
In this video we visit Somniun, our old O'day 272 sailboat, and give you guys an update on what Taylor, her new owner, is doing with her. Turns out, he's gutted the boat, dropped in an electric motor, and plans on using a Tesla battery to power it. He's also applying Coppercoat antifo...

Splash prep! One last coat of bottom needs to go on before we get splashed, but first to clean up around the boat. We finally take a look at all our sails and find a brand new genoa. Then we take a quick trip to the farmer's market to pick up some organic veggies. Hope you enjoy!
big love,

She's particularly beautiful when flipped over... the gentle curves of her bare bottom up in the air. I approach her slowly. Then, at the height of anticipation... I slap on a coat of paint.
Yep. It's time to paint the hull of the dinghy.
I painted on 4 coats. Boy, it sure does look grea...
In this episode, Beau grinds off the through hull fittings and finishes off Saoirse’s paint job with a nice red bottom coat. We are so grateful for you to be following our journey as we restore our 1972 Pearson, Saoirse, into our dream boat to sail the world!
big love!

There’s so much hard work that goes into getting a boat ready to go back in the water! In this episode, we take a quick break from the boatyard to visit family for the holidays, and then buckle down and get to work... buffing and polishing the gel coat, splicing on new anchor rode, repacking the ru...
A day on the hard costs 170$ in Balboa Yacht Club, so we worked day and night on the to do list and managed to be back in the water after 6 days.
It was a crazy work intense time, but we got a ton of stuff done, which was great. Next point on the list: engine alignment!
Enjoy & Ahoy,

Back to the boat meant back to work and there was a lot to get done in order to prep Starry Horizons for another season of cruising. Our goal was to tackle as many projects by ourselves as we could. So we did big projects like new bottom paint and lots of smaller ones like replacing an outboard pr...
This week I start on the inside demolition and refit of Miss Lone Star III. Bianca asks you to cast your vote for the new boat name and I scrape and paint the bottom of the boat. This project is truly a labor of LOVE! I hope you enjoy, this sail boat refit.

The boatyard blocked our sailboat wrong, and that lead to the hull "oil-canning." I had to go in and fix the way the boat was blocked, and then Randi and I started sanding the hull in preparation for bottom paint.

Annual haulouts can cost a fortune and you lose valuable boating time. The strategy we use allows the boat to stay in the water for years on end!
