During lockdown in Antigua we found ourselves with time on our hands for projects that we don’t usually have time for. Lacking temptations like drinking with other cruisers, we tackled a job that’s been on the back burner for a while … recaulking our teak decks.
After many years of exposure to the ...
While "Pacific Solo" refers to my eventual solo effort to cross the Pacific and pass-through "Nemo North," there is no way I'd be able to set sail without the group behind me that has been encouraging me and helping me learn. (And if you're reading this, I count you amo...
It was a (very) long 5 months but we completed the LAST piece of our external boat refit by building and installing our new bulwark design, inspired by the Lyle Hess Bristol Channel Cutter's. It was a lot of work, but SO worth it! In this video we share how the bulwarks made with Cumaru, fasten...
