Salt & Tar: Ep.200- Leaving the Dock
There will always be that one thing (often more) that tries to keep you from your full potential. I think this is the cosmic balance that weeds out the weak from the bold. We did not spend 7 years and 3 months to get to the finish line and take a seat. We’re chalking up the alternator to a cheap pro...
Salt & Tar: Ep.199
The month of May... what a whirlwind! Now that the engine passes all tests we are back on track to leaving the dock asap. We had SO much to get done. It was so hard to share our decision to leave Swab in my sister's care. He is happy and he is loved and that is the best thing. He is 11 now and ...

Salt & Tar: Ep.198
Final test of our fortitude! The Westerleaky is at it again with another major leak we cannot ignore. In this episode we solve it. We tackled it as a team and got it fixed and tested in two days. Garrett's back constantly gives him issues so that's where I come in ;) This is the RTV gask...

Another annual haul out in the bag! And… another engine problem to diagnose. We try and find a resolution fast so we can still get out this sailing season. Boats love to do this to you.

Getting out on the river as much as we can to test Rediviva's systems. So far so good! The boatyard was able to squeeze us in so we check off our annual haul out for the year. Thank you to Jim for all your help with bottom paint and to my dad who caught a glimpse of us from shore. Enjoy the s...

Salt & Tar: Ep.193
A little wood work, a little engine work, and a little sewing. Killing some time until the more pressing issue of rebuilding our transmission is possible. Garrett and I are starting to realize we have to throw out the idea of a “plan.” Too many moving parts and it leads to not only letting you down ...
