After saving the engine, we leave Spanish Wells after spending a few weeks there! Today we get to cross with beautiful, flat ocean conditions and even see some marine life!! We also experience some trouble close to Nassau, but make it to anchor safely in time to visit some friends.

I was really looking forward to a night sail... but the engine had other ideas. My brand new engine from May has struggled to start quite a few times in the past few months; however, Sunpower Diesel pushed it off and didn't respond. Now I have another big issue. Follow along as I clean the engine out and get it to work! Become a Patron!

“Get in the dinghy” and “feisty shark” became the joke of the trip, find out why! Ben and Shea are guests for 5 days. We made it to Andros in the last video. Join us for a few days in Andros. Shea completes her PADI freediving certification, sees sharks for the first time, jumps into the deep blue abyss, and a bit more!! We explore via dinghy, watch some beautiful sunsets, and have a great time. But apparently, it can’t be a normal trip on Soul de La Mar without engine issues? The first of many engine issues starts now and will apparently become an ongoing battle with warranty. Become a Patron!

I finally left Florida after nearly 4 months! There were still some uncertainties regarding the steering and solar, plus navigating around a head-on wind, but I made it! It was an overall great crossing and I am so excited to finally be home. Become a Patron!

This week I was able to finally sea trial my boat after the engine was installed! After waiting in Florida for 3 months, I was so excited. However, on the sea trial I noticed something off and had to haul out (again)! Follow along as I learn about rudders and how I fixed my lower bearing. Become a Patron!

This episode has so many projects involved, plus my engine install is finally finished!! I wire my windlass to my helm, get towed for the (hopefully) LAST time, paint my Beneteau decks, wax the boat, clean up a bit, and get ready for the sea trial! Become a Patreon!

Join me this week as I fix the water manifold that previously broke, plan my new exhaust system, and the most exciting thing; I can make my own water! It was a challenge finding space for a watermaker in my Beneteau 510, but we made it happen without sacrificing other storage areas.

I finally get to splash after a month in the yard! I was in the yard for two extra months waiting for an exhaust system that wasn't even close to being ready. I picked up my brand new Highfield dinghy which I'm so excited about! Then I finished some fun projects around the boat, including installing my third solar panel. Become a Patreon!

Two new engines within months of each other?! I made it to Fort Lauderdale and after a month I got my second new Nanni engine put into my boat. I sand my teak and wax my hull while waiting for the new exhaust system that still isn't ready. Become a Patreon!

Join me this week as I leave The Bahamas to sail back to Florida with NO engine and NO autopilot! We face squalls, cruise ships, and rough seas. There is quite a bit of towing involved, some boat projects (solar panels, wiring, batteries, waxing), and hauling out to start getting Soul de La Mar back and running! Become a Patreon!
