Is the Centerboard on our sailboat a PROBLEM? | Episode 180
When we first bought Saoirse, we had no idea why there was a large pulley sitting on the counter. Low and behold we found out it was for our centerboard. We did a little bit of maintenance to it before we set off on our adventure. But sin...
Closing up the holes in our boat | Episode 179
Recently we sailed to the boatyard to get hauled out here in Curacao. It’s been 2 years since we had Saoirse out of the water, so we got to work right away looking into things that needed to be fixed. But once we started digging, we actually found some...
Replacing my Jabsco toilet pump. I had been having troubles with it leaking at the top as well as becoming very stiff to pump. I was putting small amounts of vegetable oil in the bowl to be able to still use the pump but the piston o-ring was the main problem it had stretched to the point where it w...
In this episode of Barefoot Sail and Dive we make a lot of progress. Davy gets the peeler back out and reveals two large damages. One is 11ft long on the starboard side. We have been hesitate to do these repairs until now due to having too much weight on the keel. As you saw last week we fixed that ...

We hope you enjoy this midweek bonus episode! Our hurricane damaged fountain pajot is slo...

Finally the weather started cooperating and we had a good weather window for crossing the Atlantic to Horta in Azores!
After 2 days however, the journey deteriorated BADLY. Everything started falling apart… or OFF as the case may be. This was by far our worst sail ever as Adam and I struggled to ke...

The teak deck gets faired (aka made smooth and silky) and we put on the first few coats of paint, meanwhile the bolts that had broken the week before arrive!!! But, the joy is short lived when we realise that something is wrong with them.
Thankfully, we get a break in our bad luck and which finally...
There's a saying "you're only one broken bolt away from a 3 days ordeal" and in this episode, we break 2... Cue the long and painful process to get these bolts out and finish the jobs we started which was merely just to repack our stuffing box.
After the bolt drama, we get to wo...
We haul the boat out in Carriacou, Grenada and finally get to see the damage that we caused when we hit 'something' in the muddy waters of the lock in Port Charlotte (see EP 3)... at the time, we rose about a foot out of the water and were petrified that we hit a manatee, but no manatee co...
This episode we decided we had earned a little break so we hit the road headed for the Beautiful city of old San Juan. Along the way we stopped at a few of Puerto Rico's must see sights. After a much enjoyed break we headed back to the boat to get stuck into some maintenance work only to discov...

How will we do it? With a sump box. The sump box rocks. But, we had to seal up the anchor chain locker first (quite the chore) and run all the hoses. Thanks to Brandon with also for devising a cool way to re-purpose an old pump to move the water overboard. Enjoy the show and see all of our boa...
Not if it's hidden behind the rigging. Lesson learned here: If you're going to re-rig, pull and inspect all of the pieces. You'll be shocked at what we found. Bonus lesson: Lookout for that hammer. He packs a mean punch. Thanks to the boys at Perdido Sailor, Inc. ( as always, for...
Complete rotten stringer repair at From hot glue sticks to a plywood template to no-sh&* Coosa stringers buttered up and good as new with 160 layers of epoxy and fiberglass! Thanks as always to the hard-working crew at who allowed us DIY'ers to work beside them so we could learn the pro...
Okay, you all called it. It's time to haul out. "Uncle!" we cried. But, we were proud of the demo we accomplished DIY style. Now it's time to take that same attitude to the shipyard and do this job with the professionals at www.perdidosailor.com so we learn how to do it right...
Seems our hack job didn't really pass muster and we have, in the words of Brandon with www.perdidosailor.com "a lot more to do." So, bad news and now a very BIG decision to make. What do you think we should do?
Lookout! The DIY'ers are on the loose. Have grinder, will cut. We made a real mess of things in the bilge, but we gutted the stringers. Tell me, what do you think of our end product? Are we done cutting?
Mmm-hmmm, we make "hazmat" look good. First real dig into our rotten stringers. You'll be shocked to see how low we can go! Then we suit up solid to start buzzing into the fiberglass. Here we go! And, only $106 to go on our Give the Gift of Cruising campaign. Get on board!
Two apparently! Removing these shrouds required some hefty plumbing wrenches and a few bad lawyers jokes but we finally got them off! Enjoy!
