#43: Removing the Shrouds: How Many Lawyers Does it Take?

Two apparently! Removing these shrouds required some hefty plumbing wrenches and a few bad lawyers jokes but we finally got them off! Enjoy!

#42: Taking Some Hits at the Yard

It seems the boys at the shipyard like to pick on the DIY'ers. But, we can take a few light hits. We'll probably need their help along the way when it comes time to disassemble and fix all this stuff, so bring it on boys! Many thanks to the www.perdidosailor.com guys for giving us hell.

#41: The Cause of our Rotten Stringers

Complete rotten stringer repair documented in vlogs at Here, we found out why our stringers rotted. You want to know? Mud clogging the weep hole in our mast step which allowed water to sit constantly in the step and eventually seep down into the stringers because they were not glassed on top. V...

#40: Missing the Mast Already

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

#39: Pulling the Mast

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!

#35: Time to Replace the Old (B)rods

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.

It’s A-Fish-Yall ! — Sailing Uma [Step 14]

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. -----------------------------------------...
