travel, teak, toerail, hull, dancing, jumper cables, cheeky
It's hurricane season so we doubled up our dock lines before heading out to the west coast. Visiting California and Washington was a blast. Perfect weather and lots of pelicans in San Diego. Sea...
Winch, mast, birds and dancing
We noticed the 23ST - 41 Meissner winch was slipping a bit.
The forward deck light needed to be replaced and Steve was going to lift Karen up the main mast with a new bulb. As she started to ascend the mast, the Meissner 23S...
dinghy, bikini, dancing, camera, boat life
Enjoying some relaxation after 3 months of sailing and anchoring. Boat life has similarities to living in a home but also a number of differences. We need a better bow camera with a longer night IR range. Always...
sailing, shower, wind transducer, floodlight, camera, hawks, bikini, dancing
Preparing to leave the Florida Keys and go sailing. Probably going north. Hope to ride the Gulf Stream. We have a new Garmin Gwind transducer which is connected to our NMEA 2000 ...
In this episode, we'll tackle a common problem faced by many sailors - the wet butt. We'll show you step-by-step how to address it and get your boat in top shape.
We had a hot issue with our shore power chord and 50 amp to 30 amp Y adapter. So much resistance had built up that the power chord could have caused a fire. We replaced both 30 amp shore power cords and the Y adapter.
There’s lots of sea grass here and ...
We went from low winds to 40 knot gusts during our journey to the Florida Keys. Leaving Port Canaveral with our new stack pack for the mainsail, we cruised to Ft. Pierce inlet with almost no wind. Stopped for the night at a nice marina where we met a frien...
We are on our way to the Florida Keys soon. Celebrated by cooking some delicious steaks. In preparation, we did some DIY and took out the dinghy. Steve did some chalking to fix a leak down below. Sometimes it is really hard to determine the source of a le...
Hey, we entered a wet T-shirt contest. Just kidding, we did have some water fun rinsing Isabella's hull. Being inspired by having our fuel tank so clean, we decided to clean our water tank. It went surprisingly well, even with 28 nuts to remove and reassem...
We ended up restoring our refrigerator to its former glory. New glides made all of the difference. Karen got a little too excited. Our VIP head countertop was really dated. For better or worse we applied a one part epoxy paint to it. It turned out OK. We'l...
We serviced the Meissner winches and had our fuel and fuel tank polished. The engine ran well and we thought we were good to go so we headed for points south. Unfortunately, only a few minutes after leaving the current marina our engine stopped. We were to...
We’ve done some cleaning on a bilge and installed a light fixture in the VIP stateroom. Also did some updates to the medicine chests and replaced the shaft/prop zinc. Leaving Brunswick and heading south to Cape Canaveral. Unfortunately, we took a slight ...
This time on Sailing Intermission we stayed near Savannah to wait for Hurricane Ian to pass. We were very lucky as the storm went around us and sent only some wind and rain our way. When the hurricane was a day away we thought about racing ahead to Charles...
This time on Sailing Intermission Steve finishes strengthening the davits or should we say sheerlegs.
We traveled to Dallas for some face-to-face business. Staying two nights at the circa 1922 Magnolia Hotel gave us enough time to visit our old dancing cl...
This time our adventure was a little wet. We spent a lot of time cranking up the generator for the first time. It should have been done before but we found out the generator strainer was leaking. The strainer to the rear AC was dirty and needed cleaning.

Our life on a sailboat. Fix, fix, fix, haha. We corrected the fact that our water pump was cycling too much. Spruced up the teak toe rail. During a hot and humid day our A/C kept throwing an error. Turns out we had to replace the water pump.
We're getting...
Hello, everyone! This time on Sailing Intermission see a tour of updates we’ve made to the owners’ cabin since our last tour (Propeller, Dirty Tender & Tour Ep52). We travel to Texas for a short visit. Upon returning home to Isabella our updates co...
We're moving north to Annapolis via Georgia. Had a late start on July 26th due to weather. Was run out of the channel by a very large cargo ship. The wind died. We had to motor a lot. Headed to Ponce De Leon Inlet and was hit by a squall. Got stuck on a sa...
This time on Sailing Intermission, Steve added some extra lighting in the salon. You can never have too much light on a boat. We went sailing in some light winds…still fun! Karen’s newest tattoo is healing nicely. Worked on our Force 10 stove, made a g...
We diagnosed and fixed a leak. Went gambling but not. Danced, drank, and saw a rocket ship booster. We are still working with heads. Will it ever stop? Karen gets a Henna tattoo near her ....... We just want to leave and go sailing.
Hey, subscribers, than...
Submarines, Fishing, Fast Boats Ep72
Getting ready for the races we went to the beach with some friends. Karen worked on her tan lines and got a little burned. Caught some fish and a glimpse of a submarine escorted by the Coast Guard. Saw lots of dolphins...
Many thanks to our subscribers! 😘🥰
Isabella gets some new sturdy steps which are sooo much easier and safer for boarding and disembarking. Thanks to Steve’s carpenter skills. This time on Sailing Intermission we get out of our dock, yea, for a bit...
