Marine batteries are most certainly NOT created equal. Before going out and purchasing new batteries for you boat, be sure to consider all available options so that you can make the right choice for your situation. Hopefully this video can help you a littl...
After an epic, 800 mile, 7 day ocean crossing from St Martin, we finally arrived in Bermuda! Swapping bikinis and shorts for jackets and jeans took a bit of getting used to but after 9 days at sea we were pretty eager to get to land and explore... flat lan...
We get questions about our electric build all the time. We also frequently get requests to go more into detail about our setup. I went ahead and shot this video to hopefully answer most of those questions and provide the details people have been looking fo...
Well, the refit of Freebie has taken way longer and cost way more money that we originally figured, who would've thought? We decided that for the next year we're going to finish Freebie for cruising while living in a small apartment 500 feet from the boat ...
Awhile back we decided we wanted to use the v-berth solely as storage, however that soon proved to be a mistake. Although sleeping on the main salon pull-out settee worked for a while, It was very inconvenient to not have a dedicated sleeping area on the b...

For this video we went out with the goal to catch dinner for that night. We motored out to Delta Shoal and spearfished all day. We ended up catching two good size grey s...
Right now we're living in clutter. The goal of these next couple months is to fix that, and that starts with adding useful storage areas in our boat.
Having a place to store things isn't enough on a cruising boat. Those storage places have to also be sec...
After two and a half weeks of waiting, we finally got a mooring ball in Boot Key Harbor. Now the real work (and fun) begins. We drove up to Tampa to pick up our new electric dinghy motor as well as to visit with family.
When we got back to the harbor, we...

It's safe to say that this passage was the exact opposite of our last. It was extremely calm, we were well prepared, ...
Ever look at marine cabin flooring and be turned off because of the price? We have too. What's so great about it that demands such a premium? We've spoken to real cruisers who have used other products and get a similar result for MUCH less.
We decided to...
After a cruisy sail from Carriacou we arrived in St Georges bay in Grenada and set about exploring the town. The next day we got down to work, walking for miles around the town in search of an electric motor that may be able to serve as a replacement in ou...
We're super stoked to have our new headsail up on the boat and we can't wait to go sailing with it! The sail came out great, it looks awesome, and it fits really well. Initially, we're definitely impressed.
We're just one step closer to more tropical wate...

We've been making a lot of progress on our electric sailboat conversion. We cut out and removed the diesel tank which was fiberglassed in place by the factory. We also made some modifications buy cutting and grinding away some non-structural partitions on ...
We removed our 2004 Westerbeke diesel in preparation to install an electric motor powered by marine-grade lithium batteries. Removing the diesel was a filthy job. We pretty much got covered in oil and diesel during the process. We're super excited for it ...
