We are still pushing to get work done while we deal with figuring out what needs to be done to revamp the boathouse. We got another set of boards milled up for the last oak plank on the port side.
As we are getting down to the last of the oak planking stock, we are getting to pieces with a couple ...
Crossing the pacific is going to be a massive challenge that involves a lot of risk… Risk that we’re working hard to mitigate.
In this episode we talk about our concerns with three cracks that we’ve identified on our main and mizzen masts, we cut off the mast bases, and we get started on a solution...
A very technical episode where we dive into the final segment of the Autopilot (Autohelm) repairs for our Raymarine (Raytheon) Type 2 Rotary Drive. We also remove the heat exchangers on our Volvo Penta D2-55 to try to diagnose why we are getting white smoke above 1750 RPMs. We inspect for potential ...

This boat was built in 1972 by Camper & Nicholsons, and she's crossed the Atlantic three times since then. She needs some work, as all old boats do, but she's got great bones and is looking for her new owner to bring her back to her glory days
We really like her design, with the prote...

PROJECT VIDEO : GALLEY REDUX : PART 4
Hello Friends,
Welcome to Part 4 of the big Galley redesign and rebuild.
On this episode we are in the studio and I start the process of fiberglassing our wooden ice box shape.
I am by NO MEANS an expert at fiberglassing so I don't focus too much on th...
We're back to our regularly scheduled programming, Fries. No more drunkin' tours, because we gotta get this girl out of the Rio!!! Our mechanic is still a no show which means Spencer and I delve into the engine repairs ourselves. The task is a bit over our heads, but we decide it is better...
On this week's episode of Onboard Lifestyle we muddle through a few projects as we respond to re-occurring questions in our comment section. The weather has pinned us down in Westport but our spirits are high as we look for that next weather window. Come back next week to see what we are up to...
Gathering the grown knees has ended up being quite the adventure. But in this episode, Steve tackles the biggest stump of them all. This one yielded quite a few good specimens that will be perfect in Arabella.
Once all the knees were freed and once side was planed flat we needed to thickness them...
After a rough crossing from Puerto Rico to The Dominican Republic, we noticed a grinding in our wheel when the autopilot/autohelm was on. With no issues of the chain catching, we believed it was coming from the rotary drive unit.
After taking the Raymarine Rotary Drive Type 2 apart, a screw fell ou...
You Fries did it! You left a TON of comments on our interior tour and so Spencer walks you through our topdeck. The Rumba 41 has a ton of cool features; sugar scoops, pilothouse, giant cockpit, and simple rig. Tarka in particular has some added features such as the awesome hard bimini that acts as a...
On this week's episode of Onboard Lifestyle we go "Freaky Friday" trying to keep our spirits up during some pretty crazy weather on our 435 catamaran SV basik. We had so much fun and gained new respect for each other as we switched roles. Come back next week for another action packed ...
We've been busting stump to get the knees freed but that doesn't mean the battle is over. We still have many more to go and once they are freed, they still need to be sized and thicknessed. The good news is, we only need to rough them out right now so that they are an appropriate size an...
After 💨Hurricane Dorian💨 thankfully missed hitting us, we begin work on painting the bottom of ⛵️Full Send.⛵️ A process that included washing with laundry detergent, denatured alcohol, and taping all areas by the waterline we didn’t want to get covered in🎨 paint. We used 5 Coats of ABC 3 ablative pa...
On this week's episode of Onboard Lifestyle we take a fast-paced look back at our lives this past year on our custom 435 catamaran SV basik. Our little walk down memory lane only fuels our passion for more projects and adventures in 2020. Come back next week to see how we start off 2020...see y...
Our engine woes continue! The mechanic left her in disrepair and then left, yet again, with a half finished job. This would be disheartening on its own, but we have some marina drama that is making us extremely eager to get the hell outta Dodge. We can't, however until we get the engine running...
Harvesting knees for Arabella turned out to be MUCH more work than we ever thought it would be. In the last episode we gathered a couple of stumps but we still needed a little more and then it was time to tackle the job of cleaning them... not to mention freeing them from the clump of wood, dirt an...
On this week's episode of Onboard Lifestyle we attack our condensation issue and actually make some ground on our custom 435 catamaran SV basik. We ring in the New Year with some fabulous food that Linh creates in the galley and try our best to stay up later than Emma. Come back next week to se...
We are FINALLY giving you a tour of our NEW BOAT!!! She's a Rumba 41, aluminum sloop rigged sailboat and she has the BEST interior of any sailboat, hands down!! (Them's fightin' words and I know it!)
We encourage you to grab a beverage and join us as we tour her glorious galley, spac...
Welcome back and Happy New Year!
We've been working on Arabella for four years now. We cut the first tree in January of 2016 and it has been a wild ride since then! There have been plenty of challenges along the way. We look forward to solving these challenges every time but it also takes a ...
