Failure to Launch | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 66
The water is so close now we can smell it. After trailering Soulianis out of our landlocked boatyard, she’s now poised and ready for launch — right after we finish painting the centerboard with bottom paint. The launch goes well at first. No leaks, a...
Let’s Do It the Hard Way | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 65
Remember the horrible arch saga? Well, we’re officially putting an end to that chapter… and nope, we didn’t hire another contractor — instead we decided to build a bimini ourselves. The reason we hired out the job in the first place was because w...
WAIT, We’re Doing ALL THAT Before Launching? | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 64
Does the boat project list ever end...? It must. It has to. Or else our boat may as well have a mailbox next to its jack stands. We’re down to the last few items on our project list — and that’s because we threw a bunch off, citing them as non-essen...
How Many Quacks does it Take to Remove a Fuel Tank? | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 63
When we smelled diesel in our cabin, we knew we had a problem. We just hoped it would turn out to be an easy fix… but how often does THAT happen? Finding the source our fuel leak leads us into another big boat project, forcing us to postpone our launch...
“Don’t Do This, You’re an Idiot” | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 62.2
If you haven’t seen Part 1 yet, go watch it here! https://youtu.be/1TYFzuiCfW8 Our diesel engine, Mr. Beke, is getting some serious upgrades. In Part 1, we installed a new heat exchanger, water pump and crank shaft pulley. Now, with some DIY hardware fa...
The Wind Did It, I Swear | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 62.1
This is Part 1/2. Part 2 is now live here: https://youtu.be/T4IfnhP0kvQ --- Glad to be (nearly) done with our bottom job, we move on to our diesel engine, which needs maintenance and upgrades. ‘Course, no boat project is without hurdles. We get a serpen...
Painting our Boat with Powdered Pennies! | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 61
Horror stories abound across the interwebs about Coppercoat. We've read and watched just about all of them! If you look, there are a ton of rave reviews out there, too. Sometimes, you just need to go with your gut. Our instincts told us that if we followe...
This ONE LITTLE THING could SINK our Boat | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 59
Believe it or not, this ONE TINY little hose clamp is all that’s keeping our boat from potentially sinking to the bottom. It’s part of our centerboard operation, and unfortunately there’s not much we can do to improve it, except to ensure the clamps ...
WHAT will we FIND? Returning to the Boat after 5 Months Away | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 58
After 5 months away from the boat, we return to the boatyard in Florida to find out how Soulianis survived over hurricane season. We’ve never left her alone for this long before, and really hope the preparation we did before we left protected her from al...
What Happens when We’re Not On The Boat | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 57
Our sailing off-season — driving around in Chip, hanging out in the Great Lakes, sailing, surfing & swimming — has been a fun diversion from the boat. Now it’s time to get back to Florida. We finish our last big van project (building a bed), and ...
Exploring NORTH of the BORDER by Boat & Van | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 56
We’re slowly making our way in our van, Chip, around Lake Huron. In this episode we leave Manitoulin Island, hopping a ferry to Tobermory. The Bruce Peninsula is stunning — high cliffs topped with colorful plants and Bahamian-like blue water. We park t...
Sailing a Freshwater Fjord in The North Channel | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 55
With Soulianis on the hard in Florida, we take our van up to The North Channel of Lake Huron and hop back on a sailboat! We meet up with two couples who are seasoned sailors (our “boat parents” from Episode 13) who take us on a tour of their favorite s...
Vanlife: Our Summer Home on Wheels | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 54
With Soulianis tucked away in the boatyard, we try out #vanlife and go tearing across the country in our new transit van, Chip! (Does driving from south to north count as across? Well, either way…) We leave Florida for Wisconsin, then hop over to Michiga...
Birds of a Feather (Calico Skies Sailing Ep. 35)
They say Birds of a Feather Flock Together and that's exactly what transpires in this episode! We are lucky to cross paths with Dan and Kika of @Sailing Uma and like it often happens in the cruising lifestyle we become friends quickly and get right to the ...
Saying Goodbye to Our Boat | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 53
It’s goodbye, but only for a while. We’re leaving Soulianis on the hard in Florida during hurricane season to return to the Midwest to visit our families. We’ve never left our boat for this long before, and do everything we can think of to prepare he...
Summertime and the Livin’s Easy; Spinnaker Sailing on Lake Bra’s Dor (Calico Skies Sailing Ep. 34)

Savor the Last Sail | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 52
With just a few days left before we haul the boat out for hurricane season, we sail as much as we can — even when the wind is so light we’re hardly moving at all — to savor our last moments on the water. Join us for our last sail of the season, and ...

Real time update coming at ya!! We're getting Calico Skies decorated for Christmas and because we're underway it's gotta be done sailboat style (aka can survive heeling). Check out our creative way of putting up 'our tree' and find out what we've been gett...
Lake Livin’: Sailing Lake Bras d’Or (Calico Skies Sailing Ep. 33)
In this episode, we get busy living our best life on Lake Bras d'Or, Nova Scotia. We pass the time paddling, hiking, making bon fires, and occasionally moving Calico Skies to a new cove for a change in scene. We’re beginning to understand the allure of l...
Sailing Nova Scotia: A Cruiser’s Playground (Calico Skies Sailing Ep. 32)

Fast Sailing Overnight to Key West | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 50
The seemingly smallest thing can drastically change the experience of a journey on the sea. Like forgetting to take seasickness meds. Then what a difference a few hours makes — from night to day, from dark ominous waves to calm electric blue sea. Sail wi...
“Kinda My Worst Nightmare” | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 49
What makes your palms go clammy? Gives you a cold sweat? For both of us, swimming in murky water under a boat is one of our worst nightmares. Time to face our fears! We dive in to clean the hull, in preparation for our sail to Key West. Hope you enjoy! La...
Sailing the Miserable Mile | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 48
The Miserable Mile is a stretch of super busy waterway near Ft Myers with an incredibly narrow channel. Powerboats fly this way and that, wakes churn the water, and straying from the channel even a few feet means running hard aground. In short, it’s quit...
