Please don't apologize for not showing us beautiful vistas or magical underwater scenes, most of us "boaties" or potential boaties are far more interested in the practical side of owning a boat, the stuff we have (or will have) to deal with to allow us to experience the beautiful vistas or magical underwater scenes for ourselves. Much more of this sort of stuff please. Plus we all like to see other people's discomfort when they have to contort into tiny spaces or deal with smelly heads. (Probably why I am a fan of Saillife's channel). :)
Your mutual trust, personal and couple tenacity is truly impressive. Thank you for demonstrating the real work of a life well lived with the one you love, your setting a remarkable example for others to learn from.
2023 and re-watching you taking out the windows on your, then, new Leopard... 2023 and watching your joy as you celebrate never having to do the same on your brand new HH44.
Projects are just as cool as anything else to film. And don't let anybody tell you you will not get your money back out of that boat because anything is worth what anyone will pay for it. Great share. ONE LOVE.
has Jason lost weight? feed that man, he is so hard working and such a cheerful attitude! You guys always cheer me up and inspire me, thanks for including us in your adventures.
Jason, whenever I put a light bulb in like you did I always put a dab of dielectric silicone grease on it to prevent corrosion. You can pick it up at any auto parts store. A little 1 ounce tube will last for years.
Wouldn't the dielectric grease inhibit the conductivity at the connection points of the LED lamp since it isn't conductive? It's usually used in automotive around rubber seals and such of connecting plugs but not right on electrical connection points except spark plug wires which have very high voltages.
@micglobal, here is a link to help explain. I use LED's with dielectric grease for many years and have not had a problem. www.w8ji.com/dielectric_grease_vs_conductive_grease.htm
+Uncle Muir, I had already perused that same site. I think this is one of those things where there is a lot of ricky rumor and internet folklore as much as actual knowledge flying around. Thanks for the reply.
This video reminds me of when I had a cruising sailboat. It was like painting the Golden Gate Bridge. By the time you got all the maintenance and repairs done, it was time to start over.
"Hope I don't look like a dork?" says the man with a camera stuck to his head... I love the video, love to see all the maintenance chores that you need to do. your keeping it real. I'm in for the whole journey.
Something I've learned is to never say the "E" word. As soon as someone says a job is going to be easy - Everything goes to hell in a hand-basket! Great work on the boat chores, and the gray looks nice. Cheers from PEI Canada, Bryan
I measure home projects by trips to the hardware/homesupply and boat stuff by trips to marine supply. As usual the worst projects generate the most useful knowledge.
Thanks for showing how much work it takes to up keep the boat. It is a lot of work that goes in up keeping anything we own; but it was nice seeing the real work it takes to have something you enjoy living in.
There are two great moments on every sailors life. The moment they buy the boat and the moment they sell it....... jajajajajaja. If you really love sailing you learn to love all the hard work to maintain your boat
Rewatching the whole sailing ⛵️ playlist. Just the thing for a stormy day! As much as I love the adventure/ explorer videos, beautiful and fun. I think these worker videos are my favorite. Just so satisfying to watch chores and repairs get done ✅ Happy balance!
It brought back memories of the days when I owned a sailboat and the reasons why I sold it after 15 years of maintenance done in extremely small quarters...
Owning a boat requires heat (& cold) tolerance, strength, flexibility, no fear of heights, & great DIY skills with minimal tools & workspace. Oh!, and a healthy bank balance & wonderful sense of humour.
With all the heat, sweat, bugs and tight spaces.....you both are excellent at keeping your cool....very impressive and so much better than me. Those that keep their boat in tip-top condition, allows the boat to keep you safe in return and it looks like you are making your boat a better ship....good show!
It was great to meet Kent at the Newport International Boat Show, I introduced myself and told him I knew him from Gone With the Wynns, he said he had just been texting with you and you were down in the Keys at the time. He's a great guy and such a hoot!
Thanks for posting this vid! I think sometimes people think sailing, rving, etc is just smooth sailing all the time but you guys put an entertaining spin on the maintenance side of things.
I can't believe that Jason fit under the sink, that guy is agile. There are only two things you need to know about plumbing: 1) water flows down hill, and 2) it ain't all water. :)
For those of us watching to Learn about Cruising, this was a great video. Learning about both sides of the fence is better then getting blind sided. Thanks for all your efforts as making videos while working on projects obviously doubles the work load.
looking more badass you two. thanks for the organic cotton bed :) be down in Florida in December. I'm going back over your Alaska videos to get a better idea of our Alaska trip this summer. thank you for those.
Great video, this shows the true experience of owning a boat. Only the wealthy step on their boat and step off without lifting a finger. We love what you have done with the boat. Great style!
Great video. Real boat work is tough and sometimes it really stinks!!! But it's a good feeling to know you've done it yourself, and knowing your boat inside and out is a good thing. Cheers!
Liked this one very much. Looks like you are alot more physically active on the boat than in the RV. You'd think it would be just the opposite, but there is just so much work all the time.
Just like owning a home. But some of us aren't lucky enough to have handy helper friends that know so much and did you say bring their own beer? You both are so industrious and positive. Love that about you!
Another great video. Thanks for the insight into the maintenance required to properly maintain a boat and prepare for cruising. It's a story that needs to told.
Y'all have a large and complex boat. It's great to see you getting down to the real nitty gritty, and really learning about all the different systems. There's no better way to learn about something than repairing or replacing it. That Singa is the most fabulous kitty I've ever seen. Best Of Luck
so great. I love watching the maintenance videos, the real stuff. Mads from Sail Life is great too. He's always fixing her up. You get more entertaining everytime.
That's living on a boat for ya. At least your never bored. Always have some spare parts for everything. Winche handles, running gear, etc. Make sure to have a large variety of lures at if one doesn't work you can switch to another until you find the best ones. Then buy some more of those but keep the failures. They might be good somewhere else. Happy sailing and fair winds from Oregon!
Hey Jason and Nikki... we started following you when you bought the RV, we absolutely love watching your videos. We look everyday for your next Cat video. You have inspired us to seriously consider selling everything and moving to a Cat. Keep up the great videos and we wish you all the best from Orangeville, ON Canada... Happy Sails! N&R
Excellent. Loved that video. Just goes to show what a lot of hard work can accomplish. Your dreams do come true. Some people will never know pride and accomplishment like that. Did the hard work kill you? NO.... What's not to love.
You two are proving what BOAT stands for.... "Break Out Another Thousand" But seriously I have just found your channel and I am enjoying it very much. Thank you!
Great video guys. It isn't just about sailing and it's good to see the real "day in the life" of a cruiser. And to be honest, I'm even jealous of the work days. Great job and I look forward to the next video.
Hey y'all. Big howdy from S. Texas. Normally I don't offer advice in this format but I noticed what i consider to be a big mistake in removing your baby stay. The main purpose of the baby stay is to prevent "pumping" fore and aft in the mid section of the mast. Once you head off shore and begin to hit even the most moderate of swells, the center of the mast will begin to move fore and aft. The whole point of the baby stay is to keep the mast rigid. I know it's a pain in the ass but keeping the mast rigid is critical, from both maintaining a proper sail plan as well as reducing stress to your standing rigging. Otherwise, I think y'all are doing a great job and learning more about big boat ownership.....sail a little, work a lot.....all the while spending money as if you had a printing press on board. Happy trails....Dixie Flyer II, Galveston, TX
This vid was great, thanks for showing us some of the behind the scenes! I find it endlessly interesting learning about all of the little details and jobs that you guys are doing as a part of your new sailing life. It's a dream of mine to live like this one day (once I save up enough) so I get to count watching your videos not only as immensely fun, inspirational and entertaining, but also highly educational :)
Another informative video. It's good to hear from you guys. When Sunday rolls around we start watching for your newest video and when it's not there by Monday the anticipation starts growing. Loved Jason under the sink with Singa.
Just catching up on some missed older episodes. You guys keep getting better and better, even just filming everyday jobs at the dock! Fair Wynns and Following Seas Curiosity!
I live on dry land, but this was very interesting to see. You guys have a lot of enthusiasm and seem to enjoy a challenge. Boating seems great for people who enjoy a busy life. Great video guys, thank you :D
Great job guys you have such a great spirit even with the fixing of the boat you look at it as just another part of your adventure love the attitude be safe can't wait for the next episode
Another great vid. Love to see the projects coming along. Doing it yourself is so rewarding when completed and makes you more self sufficient when out on the open sea. Keep them coming.
Great to see an update! Jason, with all of these projects, you're going to be a veritable boat mechanic in no time! I can't wait till we have a never-ending list of boat projects to do. At least that would mean we have a boat. lol
to me one of your best videos... although I enjoy your usual content, this kind of thing is more interesting to me... especially the repairs, even head repairs... :)
Not boring at all, I had no idea so much work was involved in boat ownership. ..definitely no small undertaking... The boat looks great though. Love watching your adventure
Great job guys. Nothing worse than having to "wing it" doing things that you haven't done before or having to change how they were done to get them sorted out after others had "fixed" them. Thanks for sharing, thought it was fun... ;-}
Now you know why it's said "The two happiest days in a boaters life is the day they buy and the day you sell." Also, Your only fooling yourselves if you think this doesn't happen with new boats. It absolutely does, I know it does. Welcome to boating! Ps. On that new pump,,, now you will go through your fresh water sooner. Hope you have a water maker and saved the old working one as a spare Cheers.
I'm sure you now realize that owning a boat and being 'liveaboards' means that your life is about projects and constant maintenance. I't not that big a price to pay for the freedom to travel where you want. I am sure your audience will appreciate all your new adventures good and bad and your new cruiser audience are always interested in other sailors exploits. Personally as a fellow catamaran owner I think your doing great. Looking forward to seeing your first big sail and hopefully trip across the Caribbean and maybe even across the big pond to europe.
To quiet down that pump, we used armaflex (found at a HVAC supply store) between the pump and the wall on where it is mounted. Also a couple of extra loops of the tubing that you have going into the inlet of the pump, Use the same on the discharge. Remember that GPM does not equal pressure. Cheers !
You know way? I really love whaching your new videos on your new life on the sea. You to are really doing dam great. From bad to good and learning what it's all bout being a new boat owner and captain to. Good luck and be safe all the time...party on...
I really like all the video's. They are great and you guys are doing a great job. My wife and I took the ASA courses at the same time you guys were, but we were on a mono. We still need to do 114. Stay safe and sane. 👍
Oh! Good Luck! We've done a lot of that with our RV this year! Next year I think it will be the boats turn. Never ends! Still things to do in the house, but we dabble at that year round! I'd like to paint the master bedroom & upstairs hall, but not with a 2 yr old & 8 month old. I'll wait a few yrs! LOL
Please don't apologize for not showing us beautiful vistas or magical underwater scenes, most of us "boaties" or potential boaties are far more interested in the practical side of owning a boat, the stuff we have (or will have) to deal with to allow us to experience the beautiful vistas or magical underwater scenes for ourselves.

(Probably why I am a fan of Saillife's channel). :)
I'm glad that I "only" have a motorhome with a hundred things to service/fix/repair instead of a sailbot with thousands. Nice to watch you work.
You are truly blessed to have Kent's friendship and help!!
We couldn't have done it without him.
Your mutual trust, personal and couple tenacity is truly impressive. Thank you for demonstrating the real work of a life well lived with the one you love, your setting a remarkable example for others to learn from.
Awe, thanks!
2023 and re-watching you taking out the windows on your, then, new Leopard... 2023 and watching your joy as you celebrate never having to do the same on your brand new HH44.
It is a TRUE PLEASURE to watch the way you guys work together so well. THANKS! Keep up the good work!
Nicky you are one very lucky woman to have Jason! He is very patient, hard working and has a very good sense of humor. He the man! :)
Projects are just as cool as anything else to film. And don't let anybody tell you you will not get your money back out of that boat because anything is worth what anyone will pay for it. Great share. ONE LOVE.
That was fascinating. Thanks for showing us just some of the stuff on that never ending list.
has Jason lost weight? feed that man, he is so hard working and such a cheerful attitude! You guys always cheer me up and inspire me, thanks for including us in your adventures.
Jason is a vegetarian, so of course he is slim.
Kent might be the greatest yacht broker ever.
He's a Legend! i knew that by episode somewhat (srry for late reply just found out about this channel binge watching the crap out of it :D)
Mac Johnson wondering if he’s the exception to the norm or are there others so giving with their time, advice and help after the sail?
he was getting paid for all the "help"
He is patient and instead of just doing everything, he teaches the correct way.
Love that your cat is helping you with everything.
Jason, whenever I put a light bulb in like you did I always put a dab of dielectric silicone grease on it to prevent corrosion. You can pick it up at any auto parts store. A little 1 ounce tube will last for years.
Definitely YES!! ^^^
Wouldn't the dielectric grease inhibit the conductivity at the connection points of the LED lamp since it isn't conductive?

You guys may have thought this was boring episode, I someone whoand can totally relate to "the projects list" . Thanks so much for sharing.
This video reminds me of when I had a cruising sailboat. It was like painting the Golden Gate Bridge. By the time you got all the maintenance and repairs done, it was time to start over.
"Hope I don't look like a dork?" says the man with a camera stuck to his head... I love the video, love to see all the maintenance chores that you need to do. your keeping it real. I'm in for the whole journey.

I measure home projects by trips to the hardware/homesupply and boat stuff by trips to marine supply. As usual the worst projects generate the most useful knowledge.
You wanted an easy day? You should have been here yesterday, that was an easy day.
Just like owning anything, house, car, RV, sailboat....there is always a list of things to do/fix/upgrade. Another excellent video!
Thanks for showing how much work it takes to up keep the boat. It is a lot of work that goes in up keeping anything we own; but it was nice seeing the real work it takes to have something you enjoy living in.
There are two great moments on every sailors life. The moment they buy the boat and the moment they sell it....... jajajajajaja. If you really love sailing you learn to love all the hard work to maintain your boat
Well done you two! This is what real boat ownership is all about. The little projects never end...
Rewatching the whole sailing ⛵️ playlist. Just the thing for a stormy day!
As much as I love the adventure/ explorer videos, beautiful and fun.
I think these worker videos are my favorite.
Just so satisfying to watch chores and repairs get done ✅
Happy balance!
I love the repair videos, it gives great insight to the realities of being a boat owner, live-aboard, and a full time cruiser. I hope to see more!
It brought back memories of the days when I owned a sailboat and the reasons why I sold it after 15 years of maintenance done in extremely small quarters...
Owning a boat requires heat (& cold) tolerance, strength, flexibility, no fear of heights, & great DIY skills with minimal tools & workspace. Oh!, and a healthy bank balance & wonderful sense of humour.
Well my fear of heights makes me unfit to own a sailboat ! lol ! not to mention that I am also disabled too
I dig the nitty gritty videos, don't apologize that not everything is swimming, sunsets and mixed drinks. ;-)
With all the heat, sweat, bugs and tight spaces.....you both are excellent at keeping your cool....very impressive and so much better than me. Those that keep their boat in tip-top condition, allows the boat to keep you safe in return and it looks like you are making your boat a better ship....good show!
It was great to meet Kent at the Newport International Boat Show, I introduced myself and told him I knew him from Gone With the Wynns, he said he had just been texting with you and you were down in the Keys at the time. He's a great guy and such a hoot!
Thanks for doing these videos -- great to see the real world behind maintenance of such a beautiful home!
Thanks +Andrew Thoreil
Thanks for posting this vid! I think sometimes people think sailing, rving, etc is just smooth sailing all the time but you guys put an entertaining spin on the maintenance side of things.
I love dear Singa. He is so curious about everything!
I can't believe that Jason fit under the sink, that guy is agile.
There are only two things you need to know about plumbing: 1) water flows down hill, and 2) it ain't all water. :)
Reminds me of my acreage. Everyone loves to visit and relax. All I see is things to do. Nice video, keeping it real!
Yep, my farm is my ocean and my tractors are my boats ;) I get hay fever instead of sea sick
For those of us watching to Learn about Cruising, this was a great video. Learning about both sides of the fence is better then getting blind sided. Thanks for all your efforts as making videos while working on projects obviously doubles the work load.
looking more badass you two. thanks for the organic cotton bed :) be down in Florida in December.

Great video, this shows the true experience of owning a boat. Only the wealthy step on their boat and step off without lifting a finger. We love what you have done with the boat. Great style!
Aw, thanks!
Very interesting to see how much maintenance there is on a older boat, thank you for sharing your daily routine
Love the DIY stuff, just as good as adventure and cocktails!
This was a great video of real boat life when outfitting an over 10-year old vessel. 😊👍👌⛵️⚓️⛵️⚓️
You guys defiantly have an adventurs with this boat.. I now know what all goes into owning a boat. wish you guys the best of luck out there.
Love seeing all sides of boat ownership. Not for the lazy! Can't wait till you guys start sailing full time though. 😋
Great video. Real boat work is tough and sometimes it really stinks!!! But it's a good feeling to know you've done it yourself, and knowing your boat inside and out is a good thing. Cheers!
Liked this one very much. Looks like you are alot more physically active on the boat than in the RV. You'd think it would be just the opposite, but there is just so much work all the time.
Just like owning a home. But some of us aren't lucky enough to have handy helper friends that know so much and did you say bring their own beer? You both are so industrious and positive. Love that about you!
No we had to bribe him with beer
Another great video. Thanks for the insight into the maintenance required to properly maintain a boat and prepare for cruising. It's a story that needs to told.
Y'all have a large and complex boat. It's great to see you getting down to the real nitty gritty, and really learning about all the different systems. There's no better way to learn about something than repairing or replacing it.
That Singa is the most fabulous kitty I've ever seen.
Best Of Luck
+Allen Hare we agree! We learned so much - it was really valuable. Oh, and Singa agrees with you!
so great. I love watching the maintenance videos, the real stuff. Mads from Sail Life is great too. He's always fixing her up. You get more entertaining everytime.
That's living on a boat for ya. At least your never bored. Always have some spare parts for everything.

I think it's important to show all aspects of owning and living on a sail boat. Enjoyed the video.
I can't wait until you guys start sailing... it is going to be so much fun to watch!
Hey Jason and Nikki... we started following you when you bought the RV, we absolutely love watching your videos. We look everyday for your next Cat video. You have inspired us to seriously consider selling everything and moving to a Cat. Keep up the great videos and we wish you all the best from Orangeville, ON Canada... Happy Sails! N&R
That mattress looks so comfy...such cute kitty cats...
An excellent video!! Shows what us cruisers really go through. Thanks for showing all the not so fun part of boat ownership. Keep it up.
Thank you again I always enjoy your great rants.... Please don't stop.... "Hey be safe out there"
I like seeing hands on repairs. Makes for a ready crew at sea!
Please keep up videos like this. I am looking into buying a boat and like seeing what life on a sailboat is rely like. Keep up the great videos.
Excellent. Loved that video. Just goes to show what a lot of hard work can accomplish. Your dreams do come true. Some people will never know pride and accomplishment like that. Did the hard work kill you? NO.... What's not to love.
We wanted to watch Jason climb in and out of that under-the-sink cupboard. lol
That was exciting. And just as long as you were having fun taking care of the upgrades.
Love boat repair vids. Continue to show them...
As a long time boat owner I really enjoy these work vids!
You two are proving what BOAT stands for....
"Break
Out
Another
Thousand"
But seriously I have just found your channel and I am enjoying it very much. Thank you!
Great video guys. It isn't just about sailing and it's good to see the real "day in the life" of a cruiser. And to be honest, I'm even jealous of the work days. Great job and I look forward to the next video.

This vid was great, thanks for showing us some of the behind the scenes! I find it endlessly interesting learning about all of the little details and jobs that you guys are doing as a part of your new sailing life. It's a dream of mine to live like this one day (once I save up enough) so I get to count watching your videos not only as immensely fun, inspirational and entertaining, but also highly educational :)
It was a pleasure to watch this video, l laugh a lot with Jason, so nice to keep a good mood specially when you are fixing things. 👍
Another informative video. It's good to hear from you guys. When Sunday rolls around we start watching for your newest video and when it's not there by Monday the anticipation starts growing. Loved Jason under the sink with Singa.
Just catching up on some missed older episodes. You guys keep getting better and better, even just filming everyday jobs at the dock! Fair Wynns and Following Seas Curiosity!
Really love watching how great a team you guys are... very patient with one another- liked when u sprayed Jason Nikki- very servant hearted!
I live on dry land, but this was very interesting to see. You guys have a lot of enthusiasm and seem to enjoy a challenge. Boating seems great for people who enjoy a busy life. Great video guys, thank you :D
You guys are doing great. Much respect.
Great job guys you have such a great spirit even with the fixing of the boat you look at it as just another part of your adventure love the attitude be safe can't wait for the next episode
Impressive!! You two are real hands on sailors.
Another great vid. Love to see the projects coming along. Doing it yourself is so rewarding when completed and makes you more self sufficient when out on the open sea. Keep them coming.
You guys seem so happy!
Yacht is looking nice. I like your new logo colored stripes.
WOW you guys are making the boat like new again !
Great to see an update! Jason, with all of these projects, you're going to be a veritable boat mechanic in no time! I can't wait till we have a never-ending list of boat projects to do. At least that would mean we have a boat. lol
Great video! Boat is looking very nice! Nice new color scheme too!
I so relate to Kent's subtle sense of humour.
Thanks for that video. Good to see the reality of boat ownership. Fixing things in exotic locations.
Hi Guys, Great video! Loved the fact you're sharing the boat up keep/maintenance. Thanks! Enjoy your week.
I'm guilty. I watch a lot but always forget to give you guys a thumbs up. Not this time. I liked this one. 😊
+Dean Frank thanks for the love! I thumbs upped you too. :)
to me one of your best videos... although I enjoy your usual content, this kind of thing is more interesting to me... especially the repairs, even head repairs... :)
I love watching your videos. I'll come help anytime you need an extra hand! The laughs would be worth the work. Keep it up!
Awesome DIY projects video..,and best way to get to know your boat inside and out! Thanks for sharing and looking forward to the next episode 👍
Not boring at all, I had no idea so much work was involved in boat ownership. ..definitely no small undertaking... The boat looks great though. Love watching your adventure
Did anyone else expect him to chuck the old anchor over the side?
yes. haha thats what an anchor is for right?!
Great job guys. Nothing worse than having to "wing it" doing things that you haven't done before or having to change how they were done to get them sorted out after others had "fixed" them. Thanks for sharing, thought it was fun... ;-}
Glad somebody thought it was fun!
Now you know why it's said "The two happiest days in a boaters life is the day they buy and the day you sell."
Also, Your only fooling yourselves if you think this doesn't happen with new boats. It absolutely does, I know it does.
Welcome to boating!
Ps. On that new pump,,, now you will go through your fresh water sooner. Hope you have a water maker and saved the old working one as a spare Cheers.
I love these sort of vids. Really gets into the details and the "cost" of what it takes to live a life of adventure. More please!
Thanks for sharing this guys! I too want to buy a boat but it's nice to see the real-world parts of being a boat-owner!
One of my favorite channels, Great video. Thumbs UP
I'm sure you now realize that owning a boat and being 'liveaboards' means that your life is about projects and constant maintenance. I't not that big a price to pay for the freedom to travel where you want. I am sure your audience will appreciate all your new adventures good and bad and your new cruiser audience are always interested in other sailors exploits. Personally as a fellow catamaran owner I think your doing great. Looking forward to seeing your first big sail and hopefully trip across the Caribbean and maybe even across the big pond to europe.
To quiet down that pump, we used armaflex (found at a HVAC supply store) between the pump and the wall on where it is mounted. Also a couple of extra loops of the tubing that you have going into the inlet of the pump, Use the same on the discharge. Remember that GPM does not equal pressure. Cheers !
Such a delight to see all sides of this adventure with y'all!! (& I have to say, Kent made ME jump with his electrical zing! ;)
You know way? I really love whaching your new videos on your new life on the sea. You to are really doing dam great. From bad to good and learning what it's all bout being a new boat owner and captain to. Good luck and be safe all the time...party on...
Singa is a great helper!!! I have 3 helpers! Makes things interesting!
Loved this episode, keep this sort of thing going as a mix. Fun and work, fun and work.
I really like all the video's. They are great and you guys are doing a great job. My wife and I took the ASA courses at the same time you guys were, but we were on a mono. We still need to do 114. Stay safe and sane. 👍
Oh! Good Luck! We've done a lot of that with our RV this year! Next year I think it will be the boats turn. Never ends! Still things to do in the house, but we dabble at that year round! I'd like to paint the master bedroom & upstairs hall, but not with a 2 yr old & 8 month old. I'll wait a few yrs! LOL
