Is it the JOURNEY, or the DESTINATION? | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 68
After spending as much time in boatyards as we have, it might make you wonder: Is it all worth it? In this episode, we set off on our first overnighter of the season, with a destination of Marathon in the Florida Keys. We’ll finish our bimini here, whic...
Breaking out of Boat Jail! | Sailing Soulianis – Ep. 67
We broke out of boat jail (aka the boatyard) and are sailing south! On a frisky upwind sail across Charlotte Harbor, we break in our new headsail from Precision Sails; then our way to Fort Myers, we get a chance to fire up our Spirit 1.0 electric outboard ...
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...

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
