REINSTALLING our old engine! | BEST generator HACK ever! [Ep129 RED SEAS]
We re-install our rusty, old generator because we need better redundancy to power our sailboat when our solar panels just aren't enough.

ENGINE REFIT: was it worth it? [LIVE Q&A] [RED SEAS]
We sailed across the Pacific Ocean last year and one of our engines blew up along the way.

We did all the work ourselves without...![FIRST SAIL: crossing the channel with our NEW NANNI ENGINES (sea trial) [Ep128 RED SEAS]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/kw4dGHpaCBY/mqdefault.webp)

The dealer did set us up with a used, but in good condition, lower saildrive for the same prices as the repair. With a litt...
