Boat projects galore at https://havewindwilltravel.com. I've shared a few "hows" from our stint at the yard, now it's time for a few "how nots." Watch as we re-bed the bow pulpit not once, but twice (because it was so much fun the first time) for your vi...
Plenty of boat magic tricks at https://havewindwilltravel.com. Ooooh, says Video Annie. Magic bolts! Watch as we get our window frames blasted and painted and get "real creative" (Brandon term) making custom bolts to fit the stupid binding posts for re-...
This is a real treat for you here guys. This is our buddy, Mike (the beekeeper's) boat who was our neighbor at the shipyard, so you get to see some before and after footage from his ongoing restoration of this beautiful Tartan that unfortunately sank at t...
See all projects of the re-fit at https://havewindwilltravel.com. You might have thought it was the new wire rigging, or the bottom job, or the (oh yeah) falling-off keel but you'd be wrong. It was the horrendous job of popping our our windows, scraping ...
I never would have dreamed three years ago that I would quit the practice, become a sailor and cross an ocean in 2016, but it looks like I will! And, I will be sharing the entire experience on Patreon. Get inspired and get on board for this once-in-a-lif...
Enough with the shipyard! I think you kids need a little flashback break and a glimpse of what all this hard work is for and the fantastic cruising grounds we have right here in our home port of Pensacola. Enjoy! (But don't you get lazy ... we're gettin...
How will we do it? With a sump box. The sump box rocks. But, we had to seal up the anchor chain locker first (quite the chore) and run all the hoses. Thanks to Brandon with http://www.perdidosailor.com/ also for devising a cool way to re-purpose an old...
Why is there always a part of the rigging that does not fit? Why?! Watch as we battle more custom machining woes on the tie rod rigging, finish up the bottom job after a minor Annie meltdown, and reveal how we plan to fix the clogged weep hole in our mas...
(And a "worm dance" to boot ... do NOT miss that!) We were headed to the shipyard to work on a Sunday but Brandon said it was too pretty not to sail. Watch as we take a well-deserved break from the yard and hop aboard Brandon's Gulf Star 45 to fly the ch...
It kind of was. And, I kind of weeped about it. First follower to catch and comment on the "torch" snafu (trust me, you'll know it when you see it) wins a shout-out in the next video. And, question of the day: WHAT BROKE? Also, many of you asked, so no...
Complete rotten stringer repair at https://havewindwilltravel.com. From hot glue sticks to a plywood template to no-sh&* Coosa stringers buttered up and good as new with 160 layers of epoxy and fiberglass! Thanks as always to the hard-working crew at...
This one really surprised even me. I've been aboard before but never had the opportunity to really appreciate the beauty and simplicity of the Sabre. A well-designed, trustworthy cruiser capable of housing a family of five. Wow. Enjoy the tour! If you...
Complete repair documented at https://havewindwilltravel.com. Here, we start the rotten stringer repair! I know you guys have been excited to see this. The guys at Perdido Sailor finally busted out some proper (oscillating) tools on our rotten stringers...
Replacement of our original rod rigging our 1985 Niagara 35 to new 5/16 stainless steel wire at https://havewindwilltravel.com. Lots of decisions to make in this video dealing with the rigging. Going from rod to wire is going to take a lot of modificati...
Let's KICK OFF this third season, shall we! With a trip to Ft. Lauderdale where we get a great visit in with the super-knowledgeable Pam Wall, get some initial rigging hardware quotes on rod versus wire and ... well a funky little surprise at the end with...
Boat Tour No. 2! Follow along as Bob aboard s/v Partager (meaning "to share" in French) shares a tour of his boat, some system upgrades, some lessons learned and how he came to be called "Backwards Bob!" Let me know what you think of the SeaPower alterna...
Okay, you all called it. It's time to haul out. "Uncle!" we cried. But, we were proud of the demo we accomplished DIY style. Now it's time to take that same attitude to the shipyard and do this job with the professionals at www.perdidosailor.com so we ...
Seems our hack job didn't really pass muster and we have, in the words of Brandon with www.perdidosailor.com "a lot more to do." So, bad news and now a very BIG decision to make. What do you think we should do?
Lookout! The DIY'ers are on the loose. Have grinder, will cut. We made a real mess of things in the bilge, but we gutted the stringers. Tell me, what do you think of our end product? Are we done cutting?
First boat tour kids! We're going to set foot on different boats to help you find yours. This beauty is our buddy, Kevin's, boat and not only did he give us a tour but also some great advice for those who may be boat-shopping. Thank you again Kevin for ...
Mmm-hmmm, we make "hazmat" look good. First real dig into our rotten stringers. You'll be shocked to see how low we can go! Then we suit up solid to start buzzing into the fiberglass. Here we go! And, only $106 to go on our Give the Gift of Cruising c...
Prepping our boat for the fiberglass job took a lot of cleaning, a lot of a plastic and a lot of tape, cut mostly by my teeth! Pretty cool to see her all ready for surgery, though. Lookout rot! Here we come!
Big news kids! I'm going to give an invaluable gift of cruising to one of my Patrons. If you all help just a little, I can give something very BIG to one of YOU. I believe this is the best way to use my Patreon funds to give back with an exclusive Pam W...
Two apparently! Removing these shrouds required some hefty plumbing wrenches and a few bad lawyers jokes but we finally got them off! Enjoy!
Something AWESOME is coming!
