A RADICAL Solution For Our DEAD MOTOR | SailAway 252
7 MONTHS and we STILL haven't FIXED OUR MOTOR. That's because we're considering an UNUSUAL SOLUTION. It'll be a lot of work, much of it custom, but we think ELECTRIC may be the answer. We'll explain why, PLUS it's finally time for us to set sail again. Time to say g...

LEAVING Our CATAMARAN For A TINY HOUSE | SailAway 250
LIVING on a 30-year-old CATAMARAN can be EXHAUSTING. We finally hit a point where we NEEDED a change of pace, somewhere on LAND. And since we're in the LAND of CHOCOLATE here in Grenada, what better spot than a CHOCOLATE PLANTATION?! We spend 3 days (and too many harrowing car ride hours) in...
CATAMARAN LIFE on the ISLAND of SPICE | SailAway 249
LIFE on a 48-foot, 30-year-old CATAMARAN in the CARIBBEAN is a complex thing. We have to WORK EXTRA HARD for some things that most take for granted, BUT the rewards we receive BALANCE it out. GRENADA is a wonderful place to be for a sailing cruiser, even if some things require extra sweat and effo...
Was It Worth Sailing ALL THIS WAY? – Classic Cat Renovation | SailAway 248
WHY did we SAIL THIS FAR? We FINALLY got to GRENADA after 2000 miles and MANY difficulties. Now that we're here, we're still struggling with the generator among many other things. But we're also enjoying the community and a multitude of other benefits of this beautiful island. Ult...

Have we FIXED the DEAD MOTOR? Does our GENERATOR RUN YET? We show you WHERE WE ARE in our PROJECT LIST and explain why a CATAMARAN RESTORATION LIST while LIVING ABOARD isn't a linear thing. We also show you exactly WHY we were so HELL BENT on sailing 2000 miles to GRENADA to do all this stuff....

In this episode we continue painting the cockpit of Wilda and the aft section of the underside of the boat. Wilda is a Schionning Wilderness 1340 sailing catamaran.

FORGET the JOURNEY – IT IS About The DESTINATION! | SailAway 246
We JUST completed a TOUGH UPWIND SAIL to MARTINIQUE from ST. CROIX. We're now a ONE DAY HOP from completing a 4000-MILE ROUND TRIP to GRENADA. We LOVE Martinique, but when a DOWNWIND weather window appears almost as soon as we arrive, we know we've gotta go. It's time to complete t...
SAILING and BAILING in the CARIBBEAN SEA | SailAway 245
We discover HIGH WATER in our ENGINE ROOM on a ROUGH and WINDY OCEAN PASSAGE. We pump out BUCKETS and continue on, unsure of where the leak is. But this is just one of many challenges passage making presents. We talk about the multiple layers of TRUST that allow us to keep calm and carry on. Enj...
TRUSTING Our GUT – Passage To Martinique | SailAway 244
SHIFTY WEATHER FORECASTS leave us APPREHENSIVE about out 3-DAY PASSAGE to MARTINIQUE. We could end up in NO MAN'S LAND trying to beat our way back to the WINDWARD ISLANDS. A half day into our voyage, we start getting an UNEASY feeling and find ourselves with a decision to make. Enjoy!! And ...
TWO DEAD GENERATORS and our LITHIUM are DYING | SailAway 243
Not just ONE, but BOTH our GENERATORS STOP WORKING as we're ABOUT TO LEAVE for ST. MARTIN less than 2 WEEKS after ERIC's HOSPITAL STAY. With limited CHARGING our LITHIUM BATTERIES start to DIE. It's a scramble to get ANY GENERATOR working well enough to keep our systems going and NO...
He’s HOSPITALIZED – She’s ALONE | SailAway 242

They Told Us NOT to DO IT – We Didn’t Listen | SailAway 241
1700 MILES UPWIND from the US to the VIRGIN ISLANDS in JUNE with only ONE FUNCTIONING MOTOR and the other JUST FIXED? It's a plan we NEVER STRAYED FROM for various reasons. While the vast majority of viewers were incredibly supportive, a SMALL FEW were VERY vocal about their disapproval. Now...
We’re FINALLY DONE – 6 Months Later | SailAway 240
There have been FIXES, FAILURES, UPGRADES, and FUN since we SAILED 2000 MILES to Charleston over 6 months ago. 1500 ADDITIONAL MILES later, we're in SAN JUAN and FINALLY finishing up a LIFE CHANGING project we started back in Charleston. And the NEW PROJECTS keep coming, as do the EQUIPMENT F...
We’re HAPPY It DIED HERE – Stuck In SAN JUAN | SailAway 239
It feels like a MIRACLE that we're BACK in the CARIBBEAN, but already we have ANOTHER EQUIPMENT FAILURE - one that we HAVE TO FIX before we leave here. But what an AWESOME PLACE to be stuck! San Juan has been a HUGE FAVORITE of ours since our first visit, so we waste no time getting to know i...
PLANNING For The UNPREDICTABLE – 500 Miles from Bahamas to St. Thomas | SailAway 238
It's 500 MILES UPWIND and AGAINST CURRENT from Mayaguana to the VIRGIN ISLANDS, with an EVER CHANGING WEATHER FORECAST at the WRONG TIME OF YEAR. It's our LAST LEG to finally return to the CARIBBEAN after a VERY long year. Whatever the wind brings us, we'll ADAPT, ADJUST, and OVERCO...
We’re GOING the WRONG WAY | SailAway 237
We're in the MIDDLE OF THE BAHAMAS and FIGHTING our way EAST before making the BIG LEAP to the VIRGIN ISLANDS and ultimately GRENADA before HURRICANES start marching across the Atlantic. But the winds are NOT agreeing with us and we seem to be going the WRONG WAY at every step. Enjoy!! And b...
HAULING A$$ Through The BAHAMAS | SailAway 236
HURRICANE SEASON is HERE. And we're still 1500 MILES from the SAFETY of GRENADA. That means we're MAKING TRACKS through the BAHAMAS. But we're ALSO kicking the habit of WORK, WORK, WORK - we take every opportunity in the ABACOS we can get to CHILL and ENJOY THE GOOD LIFE, even if j...
The ONLY CHOICE For Us – A NEW BEGINNING | SailAway 235
2000 MILES back to GRENADA, HURRICANE Season is ALREADY UPON US, still only ONE WORKING MOTOR, but we are FINALLY LEAVING. We have faith in OURSELVES and in our catamaran, OPHELIA, that we will manage to get there safely AND avoid any APPROACHING STORMS. We know it won't be easy, but all of th...
Why WE ALMOST QUIT – And Now We’re STARTING OVER | SailAway 234
Can we POSSIBLY BE READY to SAIL 2000 MILES to GRENADA?! We leave the US in TWO DAYS and it DOESN'T SEEM REAL after the TRIALS of the last 9 MONTHS. We OPEN UP about nearly hitting our BREAKING POINT and GIVING UP ENTIRELY while we prepare to essentially START THIS CRAZY JOURNEY ALL OVER AGAIN...
40 GALLONS PER HOUR – How To Install A CRUISE RO WATER MAKER | Classic Cat Refit | SailAway 233
ALL the FRESH WATER we could POSSIBLY NEED - our MOST IMPORTANT UPGRADE so far. We DE-MYSTIFY RO WATER MAKERS and show you EVERY STEP of our CRUISE RO Water Maker install, including some pretty SERIOUS DEMOLITION to make room for ALL THESE PARTS! But after about a WEEK of toil, we're making 4...
OUT of OPTIONS – If This Doesn’t Work ARE WE DONE? | SailAway 232
One FROZEN motor and one mysteriously DUMPING COOLANT, plus our GENERATOR STILL NOT WORKING. We're DESPERATE to get headed SOUTH BEFORE HURRICANE SEASON, but if our LAST POSSIBLE FIXES don't work, what do we do? East coast marinas and boatyards are financially out of the question. For t...
