Sail Life – House vs Boat, Liveaboard Q&A

Sail Life – House VS boat, transitioning to be a liveaboard
I've been living board the boat for three months now. I know I haven't done a lot of "liveaboard" videos lately. Here is why :-) Do I love being a liveaboard? YES! I could easily see myself living aboard a boat the rest of my life. Links: Facebook: www.fa...

Sail Life – Thank you so much guys!
Thank you so much, guys! I was blown away by the response to the video where I announced I had finally sold the house. I'm busy packing and sorting out the last minute projects aboard the boat, but I wanted to take a minute to thank you. Your support means...
Sail Life – Super tiny combination oven!
I managed to find a combination oven (microwave + convection) that is tiny enough to fit aboard my boat. As a liveaboard that is going to make a huge difference! Sure cooking my meals in such a tiny oven is going to take some getting use to but I'm sure it...
Sail Life – Rebedding deck-hull bolts using butyl tape
A couple of the bolts in my deck-hull joint have started leaking after 40+ years. Luckily cleaning and rebedding them is very easy! I use simple ethanol to dissolve the old butyl tape and rebed using new butyl tape. Good for another 40 years ;) Blog pos...
