Hey Guys!
This week our friends were about to purchase new rudder bearings for HUNDREDS of dollars and lift out for a week to do a rudder bearing replacement as their steering became stiff! As I have done this before, I helped advise them to hang in the slings and just repair their rudder bearings s...
One of our biggest fears sailing across oceans is sinking out at sea, along with pirates, lightning, and injury. We hear about boats hitting containers and whales out in the middle of nowhere. We run out of luck 1000 miles from shore and strike a UFO mid ocean during our second transatlantic bluewat...
It was time for a new Channel Trailer. The old one is well over 4 years old and there are now over 130 videos uploaded. I also decided to change the name of the channel. The old name, "Just About Sailing" was based on a joke when I sent a video to friends and family the first time I raised...
In this weekly vlog of Barefoot Travels we build our RUDDERS! If you recall back to the boatyard days we took a mould of the one good rudder we have. Using this fibreglass mould we are able to build a brand new rudder, like new!
Next step is install it!
Thank you to all our PATRONS for all your ...
Knowing how to balance your sail plan is critical on any boat, but it's especially important on a catamaran because it doesn't heel over to spill the wind. It's also more difficult to feel when a catamaran is out of balance or over-canvassed. This week we make a run up the Chesapeake ...
After getting into Liverpool, we get hauled out and gave Salty Lass a much needed overhaul after the delays caused by Covid and various lockdowns.

How to fix a leaky chainplate on a Tayana 55 CC Blue Water Sailboat! Chainplates and Turnbuckles. In this episode we go in depth on cleaning and servicing the chainplates and turnbuckles. It is very time consuming to do all of the maintenance on the rigging. We take a break from all the projects to ...
Runaway Chain!! And a beautiful day with my wife. In this episode we take a look at some boat projects. We went to Annapolis to pick up new anchor chain. Getting it from the car down to the boat was a challenge. We replaced the old chain with the new- had a minor mishap with the anchor chain. We wil...

Got to love boat terminology. Catheads, baggy wrinkles, and gollywobbler are some of my favorites. Today we not only work on the rudder cheeks so we can have a legit tiller but also our catheads. Anything and everything old school sailing makes us happy. We're still on the hunt for a badass fis...
In this week's video, I finally get to install Athena's (38 ft sailboat) new rudder. I build the new rudder last year by making a mold from the old rudder and used vacuum infusion to form the new shells. The rudder was then filled with an expanding epoxy foam.

Nothing sucks more than after a fresh bottom job your first sail runs you into a submerged tree. Garrett and Memo, being the handy quick-on-their-feet thinkers, drop the rudder, straighten it, reinstall it, and are sailing before the week's over! Memo has a Morgan 30 but you may recognize him f...
Time to get the boat ready again. It felt strange be stuck for 5 weeks on anchor without being able to manouver.
Friends come over to help us to get the rudder back in the water.
The dropping was an easy job, but our rudder is floating in the water and we have to get it horizontal again in the water...
This turned into a very sad week on the dock. But first let us say that we did get quite a few things ticked off the list at the beginning of the week.
The rudder was bent so we managed to get it fixed and reinstalled. Our second sea trail was very successful! We filled up on fuel and are slowly ge...
After we dropped our rudder in the last episode, Mario starts to repair it. We make a few holes in it to let the water drip out just to find out the damage is not as bad as we thougt. The foam is a little bit wet, but not as bad as it could be.
But it wells way better to know that all is fine if we ...
This week we get everything ready to take our home on her first sea-trial!
This is something we've been waiting for, for a long time as we had to wait for the big super yacht beside us to move in order for us to get out of our slip. Once Nirvana was out of the way we were able to slide over. ...
Everything was going well with the installation of our rudder, until...

We had a lot of work to do in Majuro, after the rudder loss in the open ocean. A lot of things had to be repaired and exchanged and we were happy that we managed to reach the Marshall Islands. In the atoll we also celebrated Christmas and New Years and then we got the cyclone waring..
