A 60-Year-Old Shipwreck Is Still Damaging My Boat
Join the Founders Circle and become part of the story at: www.MarinerSpirit.com Two stories. One ship. Sixty years of memories that don’t quite agree. In this episode, we follow the strange history of Lady Hawk, once the Danish fishing cutter Tourup, E.502, and a North Sea disaster that may have ...
The Strange Disease Killing My 1934 Ship
For five months, we’ve been preparing to restore Lady Hawk without doing much restoration at all. We built the workshop, brought in the machinery, stockpiled timber, assembled the crew, and slowly developed the ability to tackle the work properly. Now, for the first time, we’re cutting into the 19...
This Engine Is Trying To Tell Us Something
People keep telling me this is an engine. Others insist it’s a motor. Both sides sound completely convinced. The strange part is that they’re both arguing from perfectly reasonable assumptions. So how can the same machine have two different answers? To find out, we have to look at something muc...
I Didn’t Realize How Dangerous This Engine Was
What was supposed to be a simple day of maintenance and diagnostics on Lady Hawk’s 1962 Grenaa semi-diesel quickly turned into something else entirely. While working through lubrication, cooling, and a handful of issues raised by viewers in the last episode, we uncovered a problem in the high-press...
This Engine Breaks ALL the Rules
This 1962 Danish engine shouldn’t have been built when it was. While the world was building rockets, computers, and modern diesel engines, somebody was still building hot-bulb semi-diesels based on technology invented in the 1800s. Aboard Lady Hawk, I walk through the complete starting procedure o...
Here’s The Plan… In Full
For months, people have been asking the same questions: What exactly is the business? Why tequila? Why aren’t we already in Mexico? When do we leave? This episode answers all of it. From commercial vessel requirements and liquor regulation to crew, infrastructure, capital and timelines, this is th...
The First Things We Built For Our Shipyard.
A shop needs two things: somewhere to put your tools, and somewhere to use them. This week we turn an antique chest into a toolbox and finish a massive torsion-box workbench as we continue building out the shipyard and laying the groundwork for our plan to sail to Mexico for tequila and mezcal. Jo...
We’re Bringing an Abandoned Shipyard Back to Life
We bought one old wooden ship. That was supposed to be the project. But somewhere along the way, the tools started piling up, the crew started growing, the old infrastructure started waking back up… and now it feels like we’re building something much bigger than a boat. This episode is about the ...
I Bought a Wooden Ship… Then Needed a Lumber Van
Head to MarinerSpirit.com to support this project! I was about to spend $5000 on roughly 200 board feet of white oak for the restoration of Lady Hawk, our 1934 Danish wooden ship. Instead, we somehow ended up with MORE lumber… and a 1971 Dodge Tradesman van. So in this episode, we head north to C...
I Didn’t Think I Would Buy This Boat…
