Defining the final shape of the stern of our Catamaran has been a while coming and adding these curved foam core winglet duckboards has finally shown her true form. To say I am happy with it , is an understatement and we are moving to the stage where final fairing of the hull sugar scoop extensions ...
We are back on our beloved catamaran Pickle, so glad the winters over and we have started our new season with an amazing road trip (see last episode 112) Now its on with boat jobs! The engine needs some serious maintenance and problems fixing, the mast needs stepping, safety checks need doing and th...
In this video, Jay adds some finishing touches on the door to get it closer to completion. We also pack our bags and drive east to visit Kenna's family in Alberta, home of the Canadian Prairies (and dinosaurs.)
It was time for a new Channel Trailer. The old one is well over 4 years old and there are now over 130 videos uploaded. I also decided to change the name of the channel. The old name, "Just About Sailing" was based on a joke when I sent a video to friends and family the first time I raised...
In this weekly vlog of Barefoot Travels we build our RUDDERS! If you recall back to the boatyard days we took a mould of the one good rudder we have. Using this fibreglass mould we are able to build a brand new rudder, like new!
Next step is install it!
Thank you to all our PATRONS for all your ...

In this episode of Barefoot Sail and Dive we get to the cabin top rebuild everyone has been waiting for! It is super exciting!
It fits like a glove! So happy to finally have a roof. It looks beautiful too!
We end up changing apartments again. $60 a month sounds great but it was just too noisy in ...
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 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 ...
In this episode of Barefoot Sail and Dive we install our new jack stands! Turned out we were sitting on CRACKED bricks! AND just in time too because we had an interesting event this week! An earthquake!
Stay tuned for the second half we start to fill the hole on the port side using our reverse mold...
In this episode of Barefoot Sail and Dive we are going to be creating a reverse mould so we can fibreglass the hole in the boat! We played with a few different ideas before getting here but we are happy to say we have a plan!
We have decided to go back to one episode a week. To keep things interes...

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 as he was chasing a crack. The Gelcoat Peeler...
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 making progress.
Happy Holidays!
Thank you to ...

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 have been the mast or boom hitting it when i...

Last week you saw us remove our stainless U-Bolt chain plates. As part of our on-going quest to keep as much metal rigging fixtures away from our boat, this week we execute an idea, suggested by Peter, our ri...
In this week's episode of Barefoot Sail and Dive we have some big news! Our next BIG project will be building a HARD TOP for Barefoot 2.0
During the two hurricanes that hit Barefoot her original hard top was blown off. We have decided to create a bigger and better hard top for her. After chang...
This week's episode of Barefoot Sail and Dive we continue with some fibreglassing work! Davy has filled up that massive hole in the side of the boat and it is ready for painting!
When we did our crossing from Puerto Rico to Luperon we had a few issues with our fuel tank so we had a couple come ...
This week on Barefoot Sail and Dive we move into Luperon Harbour, onto the floating dock! The dock gives us a chance to finally get some boat work done! Davy made a HUGE HOLE in the boat...but it's a good thing! Fixing some of the delaminated fibreglass.
Thank you to everyone who has subscrib...
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 feel like I am going back in time but the progr...
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 fibreglassing is common place! Couldn'...
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?
