Susan and Reid, Garrett’s mom and brother, make the. 20nm trek to Port San Luis and we have a new speed record!!! 9.9knots!?! This traditional sailing girl can move. It was so great having extra hands on board to push Rediviva into port under full sail. Another sea trail under her belt… well, keel!

This is living! Rediviva pulls into her homeport for the first time. After a few sea trials in the San Francisco Bay we headed out to do some practical tests at sea. By the time we make it to Morro Bay, Ca she has 220nm under her keel. No words can fully explain or express how good this feels.

We've been preparing the boat decking for quite some time. Essentially, it's boat deck flooring, and so will take a lot of wear and tear from above, ...
Warning: I may get a little excited about dolphins… I can’t help it! It feels so good to be out on the ocean again. We have missed this for so long. 100nm to Monterey and then we begin the 120nm leg to Morro Bay, our homeport. Hope you enjoy our story

A huge thank you to Spaulding Marine Center and to Heather for setting it up! This place was an amazing spot to visit. You can visit by foot too!

We loved getting the opportunity to step aboard the oldest sailing vessel on ...
King planks and covering boards are so essential to the longevity of wooden boat decking, it warrants the caution and care that we've taken to get here. The covering boards are both "glued" and screwed, albeit with a wood glue called 4200, which can be removed with heat when maintenan...
We make it to Sausalito after a fun weekend at Angel Island. We get some necessary projects done so we can continue sea trials in San Fransisco Bay proper.
Cheers,

Surprisingly to some, paint is one of the many boat systems we have to account for on Arabella. Each part of this DIY wooden sailboat is carefully considered as we paint, varnish, oil, or even leave something bare... all decisions are intentional and carefully calculated with easy maintenance and lo...
We found our weather window! For our first sea trail test. It was as light as we wanted it. It was so amazing to spend the chill time we had in China Camp and we were ready move on too. Hope you enjoy the journey with us!

There will always be that one thing (often more) that tries to keep you from your full potential. I think this is the cosmic balance that weeds out the weak from the bold. We did not spend 7 years and 3 months to get to the finish line and take a seat. We’re chalking up the alternator to a cheap pro...
The month of May... what a whirlwind! Now that the engine passes all tests we are back on track to leaving the dock asap. We had SO much to get done. It was so hard to share our decision to leave Swab in my sister's care. He is happy and he is loved and that is the best thing. He is 11 now and ...
