EP 45 | 9 Days Sailing Offshore: This Is Way Harder Than We Thought it Would Be
7 years after the idea first crossed my brain and we finally make that BIG LEFT TURN. We had our challenges, a self steering device that didn't seem to want to hold course for more than an hour (more on that next week), big confused seas, running out of fu...
Our FINAL SAIL on this Catamaran & Our HONEST Thoughts
This is our final sail on this catamaran and we have thoughts! We also have now the benefit of having sailed a catamaran all season and have lots of thoughts based on our experience.

Finding more PROBLEMS but we’re getting SOMEWHERE [Ep 140]
We are finding more problems with our Yanmar 2GM and not only a cracked piston. But like Cory says: " We're getting somewhere!" We have been learning so much and had to become diesel mechanics if we want to keep on traveling with our sailboat. And with hur...![How to remove a YANMAR 2GM [Ep 139]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/3_aydzO4X8k/maxresdefault.webp)
How to remove a YANMAR 2GM [Ep 139]
We finally receive our parts for the engine rebuild. We manage to remove our Yanmar 2GM which despite its small size is quite heavy and in the most awkward location of our Hunter 33. We only cover some of the rebuild in this video as we will have bonus epi...![The MOTOR is in pieces!! [Ep 138]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/iI_mWwZptkM/maxresdefault.webp)
The MOTOR is in pieces!! [Ep 138]
Living at anchor in the middle of the ICW while the engine is in pieces can be really interesting and challenging. And this is the start of a long journey in our Yanmar 2GM engine rebuild which is well needed to keep on sailing. Everyday we battle the curr...![Towing our HUNTER 33 Sailboat with a 3hp outboard down the ICW [Ep 137]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/GgSelDrLoCg/maxresdefault.webp)
Towing our HUNTER 33 Sailboat with a 3hp outboard down the ICW [Ep 137]
What a stressful time on the ICW we had. After just sailing over 346Nm non-stop from the Bahamas without engine this was the dreaded moment. The wind did not cooperate with us as we tried to make our way into New Smyrna Beach and through a lift bridge. Cor...![346 Nm Non-stop SAIL | NO engine into Florida [Ep 136]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/zvB0VXnVrgE/maxresdefault.webp)
346 Nm Non-stop SAIL | NO engine into Florida [Ep 136]
What a crazy journey this 346Nm non-stop sail without engine was. The most stressful part being entering the Ponce inlet at night in big swell without an engine. We really wanted to make it as far North as possible up the Florida coast to fix our Yanmar en...![12 Knots on a Hunter 33 across the GULF STREAM [Ep 135]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/rlIjwTMpHb0/maxresdefault.webp)
12 Knots on a Hunter 33 across the GULF STREAM [Ep 135]
Time to leave the Bahamas for an intense 3 days sail without engine up the Gulf Stream back to the US. Trying to time a weather window was a challenge in itself but eventually one, although not the best, presented itself. Hurricane season was approaching a...![Terrifying STORMs & LIGHTNING in New Providence [Ep 134]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/wl8IHFCok9k/maxresdefault.webp)
Terrifying STORMs & LIGHTNING in New Providence [Ep 134]
We get a warning of an intense storm coming our way from the wide open. We quickly release more chain and hope for the best. Waves break over the bow as we ride out 60 knots wind without an engine as a backup. April has been a crazy month bringing terrifyi...![When SAILING is Easy : Exumas to Nassau [Ep 133]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/XugYtynpH3U/maxresdefault.webp)
When SAILING is Easy : Exumas to Nassau [Ep 133]
Gotta love those days when sailing is easy! You can read, cook up a storm in the galley or simply take a nap. After waking up in a new location we set sail from the Exumas to Nassau and try fishing in the Tongue of the Ocean. Unfortunately with the Bahamas...![Can we even PULL UP ANCHOR? | The day everything went wrong [Ep 132]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/gTsBuM2xeyg/maxresdefault.webp)
Can we even PULL UP ANCHOR? | The day everything went wrong [Ep 132]
This is the day everything went wrong; our steering broke and getting water was dangerous. Seeing the waves and the way the sailboat was moving I was thinking: "Can we even pull up anchor?" We were on our way back to the US through the Exumas so that we co...
