Yeah! Free water 'THEY' said...until you stare at the thing which makes free fresh water and wonder why is it not making fresh free water? What went wrong? How does one start to troubleshoot something so advanced? And how much did it cost to get 'free' water again? Watch how we t...

After almost 3 weeks in Fort Lauderdale, we’re finally ready to sail across to the Bahamas. We apologize for the long video but we had a lot crammed into the time we spent here so hopefully you enjoy it anyway (and make it all the way to the end lol)!
It’s our first time preparing and provisioning ...
There are a number of things we did to tailor our #Seawind 1600 #Catamaran to suit our needs as #liveaboards. Those creature comforts you don’t give a second thought to when living in a house on land. Maintaining a comfortable temperature inside the boat, reliable internet access, a mattress to our ...
We build, design, and install our own DIY 50 gph watermaker (desalination system) for our sailboat. This was the hardest project we've tackled on our sailboat, but this didn't stop us from having fun with this episode. Watch until the end to see the best part of our comedic shenanigans!!!!...

We recently installed a Rainman Watermaker (aka desalination unit) aboard our boat and can now desalinate salt water!!! Here is the link to the Rainman website for more info about the waterm...

One of the most important things a blue water cruiser needs is good tasting drinkable water. HECK - cruisers drink a lot (and some of those liquids need to be water)! You can buy bottled water but it gets expensive, is heavy to lug around and it takes up valuable space. Your best bet is to obtain an...
In this episode Mike and Jacquie try to determine why they cant make water. After many changes of water maker membranes we are stumped and have stumped the experts. At the date of this posting we still do not have a working water maker. If anyone out there had suggestions that we have not tried,...

Our water-maker fails, so Troy strips it down and troubleshoots the problem. As water-makers require periodic seal replacement, we hope this video shows others how simple it is, to field service a Katadyn Watermaker.
Along the way, we hope to share a bit of general know-how when pulling things apar...
We've been without a working watermaker for just about a year now....so it's time to get it repaired!
Matt takes apart our HRO Seafari watermaker and replaces all the seals since we assume this is what had kept it from working just before our Atlantic crossing. After a little trouble w...
Once in San Carlos, after crossing the Sea of Cortez from Loreto, it was time to prepare SV Blackdragon for the hurricane season. I had to remove all halyards, sails, fresh water-flush everything, etc. I spent some time with friends from SV Passport and SV Double D around some langostinos. The day I...

This is a tour of our 2009 Leopard 46 catamaran. We bought her from Moorings and spent well over a $110K fixing her up and outfitting her for full time cruising. That's a lot of money. Worth it? You be the judge.
