Good Winds, Lazy Crew on a Catalina 42 Ep 11
Good winds, some 3 to 4 foot waves, flew just the jib, we could have raised the main, but we were lazy in 20 knot air. The weather was a little cooler yet warmed up enough to wear less. We motored, sailed, and just enjoyed a leisurely time. Caught a fishâ€...

Sailing Intermission Intro
We love sailing, partying, dancing, cooking, and sometimes pushing the limits. We started our channel in 2020 featuring Cakewalk, a Catalina 42 sailboat. She had been neglected for quite some time and we did lots of cleaning, sanding, refinishing with new ...
Hanging, impeller replacement, and anchoring on a Catalina 42 Ep 7
We wanted to goof off but duty calls. Went out for a nice sailing day; on the way back, the engine started to overheat. When the alarm went off, we decided to hobble the rest of the way to the slip. Good thing we had a bit of a tail wind to help between in...

We’re sailing. Karen is looking great in her bikini. Went out on Saturday with little wind. Sunday the air picked up. Used our Kobalt drill and Winch Bit to make our winches electric. Call me lame but it's nice to use when raising the main or even trimmi...

Cleaning the bilge on a sailboat Ep 2
My least favorite thing to do! Clean the bilge. It's a dirty job but somebody has to do it. We currently have two bilge pumps, a Rule 2000 and a Seaward 750. The 750 is placed lower so it comes on first. The float switch on the 2000 is placed higher so it...
