It's sad to see our mast lying lonely on her side at the shipyard. She loves to be standing tall, with lots of folks "hanging around." But I sleep soundly knowing she's got sunny, silky dreams to keep her warm. More sailboat silking at https://havewindw...
Watch us run around like chipmunks in time-lapse mode as we pull the mast. Pretty interesting to see her become completely detached and lifted away. Also, enjoy the Video Breakdown by Yours Truly!
Just a few last detachments (just a few, I swear!). This mast pull prep is no effin joke. But all that's left now are the rods holding her up. Here comes the crane!
Yep, we are finally talking about that electric motor. We have so much to share and we are excited to share it all, from testing it, to putting it together to even removing and changing certain parts!
Hope you enjoy this episode and are excited for more ...
You guys watch closely, because we're counting on you to help us put all of this crap back together. Preparing the boat to pull the mast turned into one heap of a mess, but don't let it get you down! Getting that stringer fixed will get us one step close...
The only really bad thing about rod rigging is that she doesn't show her age, but we knew, at 30+ years, our original rods were getting up there. If we wanted to sail south next season, a re-rig was in high order. Let the debate begin ... rod versus wire...
As we mentioned so many times, being in this Boatyard have its benefits. You know what they say " one man's trash is another man's treasure." We got to salvage some good shiny metals and had to learn how to weld to put it all together...
We also started ...
We've got a TON of projects coming up kids, so I wanted to give you a little glimpse of what it is that motivates us when we're doing all of this scraping, cleaning, sanding and prepping. Plenty of cruising vids at https://havewindwilltravel.com/.
When we put the mast back up on Uma a while ago, we noticed that the rigging shop cut our new forestay and backstay to the wrong length, it was time to get that issue resolved before we go out for a perfect monday fun-day Sail !

Cuba! I'm kidding (sort of). Maybe. There and 1,000 other places. I'll share our (very vague) plans but we're less than a year out and--believe me--that's not near enough time. (But it never is.) A big shout-out to just a few of the other wanderlusts...
Being in the water has a lot of advantages. Other than being smoothly rocked to bed at night, we can officially say that we can catch our own diner ! And amongst all the fun, we also worked on hooking up our house batteries and some of our electrical toys....
Before we tell you where we're going, I thought it might help to know where we've been. In fact, I wrote it all down for you in my first sailing book -- SALT OF A SAILOR (FREE TODAY on Kindle): http://www.amazon.com/Salt-Sailor-origins-durable-not-so-dain...
Time to get real people. I've had a great time making entertaining videos but it seems folks want to know the REAL STORY. Well, this is it. The story of me. Stay tuned for the Keys to the Kingdom book launch at https://havewindwilltravel.com/.
Launching Uma was literally the beginning of this adventure. As we are creating more steps towards our dream, we are excited to share with you the next phase of our story.
Hope you enjoy :)
