    Hey guys, that video was super cool! You are sailing on my dream boat but so many people told me that lagoon wasent made to sail around the world. So yeah, I feel for you. Repairs and upgrades, but the space and not always tilting sideways!💁‍♂️😉 keep getting those repairs videos coming! Enjoying them alot! Keep safe! ❤

    Hey there me seafaring buddies. Very glad that Nahoa held strong for y’all to arrive in South Africa. I had read that you would find the trades there helpful. Hopefully all projects are completed in tip top time. Say that 3 times fast. I’m real interested in what your family time ventures into in between important boat work supervision. Keep things safe and satisfying. Culture us some more please. Kisses for all babies. Adults included. Hasta luego.

    On the gooseneck you do not want any space there should be a delrin washer above and below , having no space makes it 10x stronger and not allow the pin to bend as you have the support off bottom and top of gooseneck and the pin . The delrin over a stainless washer will stop the squeaking as the boom moves with a dab of teflon grease

    Bread maker? You can bake bread in a Dutch oven on your stovetop, whether gas or induction. Dutch oven stows away with pots and pans when not in use.

    Thanks for sharing it all! I like the idea of small appliances AND a 60 foot boat!

  • @rhackenb1
    @rhackenb1 Před rokem

    The one very complicated problem you mention is the diesel engine. Gasoline/diesel engines have 200-300 movable parts and fittings that can go bad, especially in seafaring conditions. For your next boat go totally electric using solar (and maybe wind). Mechanically, these are much simpler and most of the electric motors are sealed for lifetime use. You will not need to buy diesel, which is becoming more and more expensive, and have the issue of storing it. New electric systems even have regenerative propellers that actually generate electricity when you are under wind power. Love you show. The kids are going to be more and more an active part of it.

    Spray silicone is saltwater boating's BFF. It'll protect metal from corrosion and rubber from drying out, shrinking and splitting. My engines and fittings get covered in it every spring.

    Great to see you tackling the big jobs to keep Nahoa running like a Swiss watch but improving her usability to suit your needs. You are well placed in South Africa as it seems to have such a buoyant (excuse the pun) catamaran industry so all the trades and support you could ever need. Here’s to the next leg of our fascinating trail of photos. Looking forward to piggybacking the journey through your eyes. Keep well and safe.

    How super exciting. This was a great lead into the phase of the adventure. Love your attitudes, motivation and enthusiasm. Seagull Striker? Ben is making up words because he knows we don't know any better. I went into the local marine store, West marine, and asked for a sea gull striker and he pointed toward a tennis racket, ,lol We forgot you took out that big couch and made the cushions. What a great job you did. Ben does make a good point about "paying your dues". It is true in everyone's life but in a house, you can neglect things longer, but, Father Time always wins. We are in full time in our RV and since spring is almost here in the Pacific North West, we will need to survey the trailer and do some maintenance, too.
    We love taking a break and catching up with you guys. Sunday mornings are the best!
