#62: No Water In the Bilge!
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 also for devising a cool way to re-purpose an old pump to move the water overboard. Enjoy the show and see all of our boa...
#61: Machined Blocks and a Magic Bilge Box
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 mast step that started this whole mess!
#59: A Boatyard Break to Sail the Chute
(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 chute!
#54: In Other News … Our Keel’s Falling Off
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 note the one-time donation opti...

Boat #3: 1984 Sabre 34
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 find them helpful, please join our Giv...
#52: Stumped by the Rottern Stringer Repair
Complete repair documented at 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 so we could grind away all the fiberglass, dig out the last of the rotten ...
#51: Replace the Rod Rigging or Switch to Wire?
Replacement of our original rod rigging our 1985 Niagara 35 to new 5/16 stainless steel wire at Lots of decisions to make in this video dealing with the rigging. Going from rod to wire is going to take a lot of modifications on the upper fittings and the forestay ... don't even get me start...

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 my bad-ass brother, John. Bring your ...

#49: D.I.Y. = Do It (at the) Yard
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 learn how to do it right...
#48: Bad News, Big Decision
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?
#47: We Can Dig It!
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?

#46: Can You Dig It?
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 campaign. Get on board!
#45: The Tunnel of Doom
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!

#41: The Cause of our Rotten Stringers
Complete rotten stringer repair documented in vlogs at Here, we found out why our stringers rotted. You want to know? Mud clogging the weep hole in our mast step which allowed water to sit constantly in the step and eventually seep down into the stringers because they were not glassed on top. V...
#40: Missing the Mast Already
It's sad to see our mast lying lonely on her side at the shipyard. She loves to be standing tall, with lots of folks "hanging around." But I sleep soundly knowing she's got sunny, silky dreams to keep her warm. More sailboat silking at
#39: Pulling the Mast
Watch us run around like chipmunks in time-lapse mode as we pull the mast. Pretty interesting to see her become completely detached and lifted away. Also, enjoy the Video Breakdown by Yours Truly!
#38: Here Comes the Crane!
Just a few last detachments (just a few, I swear!). This mast pull prep is no effin joke. But all that's left now are the rods holding her up. Here comes the crane!
#37: Here Comes the Boom!
You guys watch closely, because we're counting on you to help us put all of this crap back together. Preparing the boat to pull the mast turned into one heap of a mess, but don't let it get you down! Getting that stringer fixed will get us one step closer to sailing south! Follow along ...
