Well, after removing the servo pendulum wind vain, lots of patching, sanding, prepping, and painting the topsides, we finally installed our new vinyl lettering today. So we wanted to share the happy moment with you.

Our classic 1974 yacht - Chak Matay - has lived a mysterious life. We only know that she was built in Greece in 1974 and made her w...
Multiple projects and one big mess. It's hard to keep things organized when you also want to get things done. Sometimes you just have to sacrifice. That's the thing with boats... If you know, then I don't need to explain further, if you don't but have a boat... you'll see ;)...
Getting a few jobs done before the end of the year.
Fitting the water trap on the Chinese diesel heater exhaust. Water trap works fine; but problems with the heatproof tape.
Washboards are now ready for epoxy and varnish.
New solar powered ventilator fan.
Plus a couple of 'surprise' prese...
We have decided to prioritize a bit at the moment. Everything has just gotten so overwhelming between juggling our boat and other projects we have had so we have taken a step back from YouTube till January to focus on finishing our boat & getting these last two projects of ours done. Don't ...
On this week's episode of Onboard Lifestyle , we announce the winners of our contest of how many gallons of West System Epoxy we have used to refit our custom 435 catamaran SV basik. We also tackle a few projects before spending "Emma Day" with the family. Come back next week to see...
PROBLEMS SOLVED! Chesapeake Light Craft comes to the rescue!
We have worked out the issues with starting with the wrong plans. We have worked out a design to make my boat able to do everything I want it to, including nesting, and a lot of ideas of our own.
I've made great progress this wee...
After our glue failure on the scarf joints for the planks, we also had some glue failure on the graving pieces. This time though, it was with a new and good batch of Resorcinol. So, we were not quite sure what the problem was at first.
We later realized that the clamping pressure was being lost du...
In this episode we trouble shoot our outboard engine a little more, finally get the propane working and cook our first hot meal on board in months, and begin work on fairing the keel and rudder. Our friend Kari from Iceland also joins us for a week helping to get Full Send ship shape!

I had resigned myself to not being able to finish the hull repair because of the constant rain and decreasing temperature. But then the jetstream moved a bit and the forecast was for 3 or 4 days of dry weather with reasonable (for epoxy) temperatures.
Should I drop the other projects and get on with...
THE BOAT MUST GO ON!
Following last week's big mistake, we decide to move forward with the basic parts of the build until we have the proper plans. In this video, we review what changes need to be made. Then Emily begins the "glue" part of the stitch-and-glue method---applying epoxy ...
With a project like this, there are always going to be ups and downs. The key is trying to stay up beat and finding a way around the road bumps.
We've been greatly slowed down this summer by the work of figuring out the prop shaft assembly which has required a lot of machining which we needed ...
This video covers the structural repair of a rather large crack/split/gash in the hull of Serenity. It happened two years ago just before I took her out of the water...and it was 100% my fault.
Still, who doesn't like the chance for a bit of extra fibreglass work?
I prepared this time! I actually wrote out a specific list of things I wanted to find out at the boat show related to forthcoming projects. I questioned a few technical experts from different companies and received a lot of valuable information. And saw three very special boats.
I can't believ...
A few odd jobs in this episode; Lucy finishing off the 'mock' Holding Tank, me finally gluing up the rest of the headlining, plus fixing a broken TV - but is there anything worth watching?
The moral of this short video is that anyone can fix anything and also have a good time doing it.
This video went on a bit longer than anticipated, but so did the install process. First a bit of an update, then a detailed look at fitting the new Forespar Series 93 2" combined thru-hull and seacock for the holding tank waste outlet.
This is how I did it - I am not suggesting it is how you s...
We're back to working on Freebie, but we've got to be a little creative and choose our projects wisely because until the construction of the home she's docked behind is finished, we have limited access. We chose to work on the new companionway stairs because most of the work can be do...
I get a slip in Lahaina and tackle a couple boat repairs. I also try surfing and lose some camera gear.

I thought I would get another short video out in June. This is just the basic preparation of Serenity to make it as easy as possible to get started on the real work. Also a bit of a test of my new 'energy regime'.
Can you use products from Home Depot (or any local hardware store) on a boat? From what we've found, the answer is "it depends." The reason why people cringe when you say you're getting supplies from Home Depot for your boat is that there's an assumption that just because it...
We put off the job day after day due to unfavorable weather, finally the day came, and it happened to be the same day as her birthday 😬

In this video, I get started building a new rudder for my 38ft sailboat. Vacuum infusion is used to create the outer skin of the rudder.
