In this episode of Barefoot Sail and Dive we actually hit the jackpot! Back in October 2020 we heard about another Mahe 36 that was beached and in a bad condition.

In this episode of Barefoot Sail and Dive we go into detail about a MISTAKE we made last time. Or is it a mistake? We used a fairing filler that is not epoxy based. After doing a serious amount of research and a test we still are not sure what to do.
Leave us a comment below on what you think we sh...
In this episode of Barefoot Sail and Dive we use the Gelcoat Peeler even more. There are definitely some tricks to using this tool and the more you use it the more you learn how to make it that much more accurate. Changing the blades and giving it a clean can help as well!

In this episode of Barefoot Sail and Dive we get a GAMECHANGING TOOL!

If you remember when we started this adventure, we bought a boat with no real knowledge of how to sail. Well all of that is changing! Our wonderful neighbor and friend, Ron, is an experienced captain, with 6 circumnavigations and 12 atlantic crossings under his belt, has very generously offered to t...

We continue outfitting our boat for the season and focus on the electrical system. We replace our hatch, repair our water tank and drive to Phoenix to pickup our new rudder. While in San Carlos working hard at the boatyard, we give ourselves a break and take the dinghy out to spearfish in the chilly...
We start our long stay on the hard outfitting the boat with tons of upgrades. We re-embed our chain plates, switch to a compost head and install a new bow roller and anchor. Nathalie starts getting settled into the new life on the boat, and through all the hard work, we make sure to have some fun an...
Because to keep the journey going, you gotta put in some work! To keep Varuna ship shape, we pull into a tiny dock at Marina Seca Guaymas on mainland Mexico, haul her out of the water, and settle into a dusty new life up on the hard. Our goal is to get in and out of the boatyard quickly, prioritiz...
