I know I am risking it but when I suggest working on the Catamaran on the weekends I am really taking my life into my own hands. There is Danger in the air with this video as I nearly crush Janet and damage the module after all that hard work.

In this episode of Barefoot Sail and Dive we start to fibreglass a double sided repair. The section on the starboard hull was damaged when we came out of the water. Before we got the peeler Davy had used the grinder and accidentally gone through the hull a...
In this episode of Barefoot Sail and Dive we continue on with restoring the fibreglass hull. The section we thought we had finished did in fact need a little bit more glass.
Our hurricane damaged catamaran still needs a lot of work but we are slowly makin...

In this episode of Barefoot Sail and Dive we continue working on one of the major damage spots on the spots. The port side of the boat definitely had some impact during the hurricane in Nanny Quay. It looks like it was a big scrape past the boat, could it ...

Amongst a hoard of other jobs, working out how to secure things in a boat as I lock down the Catamaran soles is time consuming in itself. This week securing Boat Diesel Tanks comes to the fore before the final adjustment of the floor level. Sometimes I fee...
Let the boat work begin!! In this episode we start some of the fibreglassing jobs we need to do before leaving Puerto Rico. Repairing the port bow is one of the first jobs on the list!
It's funny how in this time wearing a mask and safety googles for fibr...
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 fibregla...
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 th...
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'.
Moving stuff around endlessly and preparing for new structure to go into the hulls is the order of the day as the starboard bulkheads get filleted in and ready for tabbing. An afternoon sail on Sydney Harbour couldn't have come at at a better time as we t...
