We are ready for bluewater sailing in the South Pacific Islands, but after our long and challenging upwind adventure, rounding Cape Horn and sailing the Beagle Channel, Straight of Magellan, and the fjords and canals of Patagonia, we needed to do some boat...
Storing our sailboat in the Mexican heat is hard. The to do list seems to get bigger and bigger. We have to remove solar panels, water heaters, check chain plates, rigging. You get the idea. Life in a boatyard is dirty, hot, and sweaty.

In this episode we are working on the trampoline, catwalk and forward beam area which we could probably also call the “nightmare” area. And that is because there are so many little fiddly bits and pieces that require sanding and spot filling, it’s te...
We're back! We have had to be away with work from our boat for several months, with no chance to come back for even a weekend and we are finally back! We have a whole week now to purely dedicate to Rummy. As we continue to strip her back, we knew we may fi...

We are a couple months away from leaving to sail offshore. Our last big job (and all of our life savings) was to get a rerig, for peace of mind. And thank goodness we did! Our chainplate had a big crack in it and our deck was rotten around the chainplate h...
We work on putting the final floor into The Hull Fame, and reinforce the area around our chainplates - which will then allow us to adhere all the bulkheads to the hull sides.
This week's episode has us putting the new floor in for what will be our sail lo...
How to fix a leaky chainplate on a Tayana 55 CC Blue Water Sailboat! Chainplates and Turnbuckles. In this episode we go in depth on cleaning and servicing the chainplates and turnbuckles. It is very time consuming to do all of the maintenance on the riggin...
Our only surprise was how quick our prop's zinc disappeared. It's been a year and a half since our last haul out but it seems like it's still too soon to have burned through that donut zinc. This most likely means we'll be adding a grounding plate of some ...
Runaway Chain!! And a beautiful day with my wife. In this episode we take a look at some boat projects. We went to Annapolis to pick up new anchor chain. Getting it from the car down to the boat was a challenge. We replaced the old chain with the new- had ...
We're not ALL-IN sort of people... we didn't quit our jobs, and drop everything to sail around the world, and we weren't prepared to take on a full-time "bring it back to life" sailboat. However, we were prepared to move and live aboard a boat while doing ...
This week we remove the remaining fittings off deck, continue restoration of the mast and install new deck mounts for our galley hatch and bow piece.

We’re recovering from last week and get to a project we know we can complete; the main chainplates! It was fun working on a straight forward project. Much of the work was already done and all that was left was to secure them to the hull. So much thinking...
This week in my DIY sailboat refit project I got the chainplates and the last thru hull installed. This marks an important milestone. Athena can once again float!

Come join us back on the boat as we continue our rigging. Our main focus is how we're going to secure the bottom dead eye to the chainplate. Instead of a metal strap or bar we're mixing in some modern material. Layering up Dyneema then serving it together ...
Keeping to our salty vision we turn up our dead eyes. We are a gaff rig ketch so we couldn't very well have turnbuckles, we NEED dead eyes. This video spans over a year and two different cameras so, apologies, the sound was difficult to get right on the ep...

After flying our gennaker we decide to go anchoring in Lake Erie once again. We find the perfect anchorage next to Welland Canal in Gravely Bay. We dinghy to the breakwall and walk around. Unfortunately, the rainy fall weather brings some not so nice surp...
The long process of sheathing continues into August with breaks out to a scrap yard and a river cruise to celebrate my birthday. We also weld the top pieces of the chainplates that the dead eyes will attach to at Rolf's shop with the sound of the racetrack...

In this episode we take out the old chainplates to see if they are reusable so we can keep our mast upright on our 1971 Pearson 35. Then we show you how we installed them. We also repair the spreaders so we're ready for the new rigging to raise the mast.We...
In our last episode we discovered that we have a corrosion issue with our Chainplates. Now these fella's are an integral part of Sarean's rig. However, they're not just fixed to the side of Sarean's hull – they're fully encased in fibreglass and hidden...
