- July was a super productive month! I was waiting pretty much all month to get the boat re-blocked, but it worked out because I was able to putter around on other projects that I was planning on doing when the boat was back in the water. Now when the boat goes back in, I’ll have less work to do! I’m almost to the end of my boat projects. Splash is right around the corner.

😀 Welcome to Sailing Artha 😀
Hi there, my name is Nicole, and my single-handed journey began in 2022 on a Columbia 26. It now continues on my new boat, a 28’ Bristol Channel Cutter named Artha (the name translates to “that which allows one to pursue her dream.”) I’m on a giant adventure of seeing the world and leaving it a better place! Follow me as I experience all the hard and fun times of this lifestyle. Thanks for watching, subscribing, and commenting.

I just want to say how thoroughly impressed I am with what you have accomplished and continue to accomplish. I am 73 yrs old and just bought a boat and am preparing her for a solo trans Atlantic, hopefully next year. My wife recently passed away as a result of dementia. I took care of her right up until the end. One of the ways I used to try and relax was to watch your channel and a few others. Watching them awakened a dream I had when I first started sailing at 15 yrs old. That dream was sailing solo across the Atlantic. Not only is your channel an inspiration but it also helps to keep me motivated, you mare a model of perseverance, Losing my wife is a devastating loss and this project is helping to keep me sane. So thank you for re-awakening the dream.
Hello Nicole! Just learned about you from your friend "Adventureman Dan" and am really, totally impressed by your project, DIY skills, and just your grit and determination! I am 73 years old and have never been on a large sailboat but plan to be a sailor like you in my next life, haha! I am learning all I can about sailing and boats and can't wait to see you and your magnificent vessel in the water and heading for Greece! I wish you Fair Winds and Following Seas from Geneva, Switzerland! 🌿
It’s great to see you smiling in your episodes, you are truly happy. Can’t wait to see how awesome your future will be
You are a very courageous person, very soon you will be able to enjoy the fruit of your labor, cheers, Richard
You are incredibly inspiring, talented and sooo easy on the eyes. Looking forward to our passing while passaging. Keep up the good work and never stop dreaming.
I’m really happy for you. The boat is really starting to come together. Your energy and positive vibes are very noticeable in this video 🤙🤙🤙🤙
No negativ comments from me 😁 I think you are one fantastic lady, and I do admire your ability to tackle all the different tasks that needs to be done😍 You are soon there... in the water 🤗
Great job girl!! You're such an inspiration!!
As someone who is stuck in a cubicle and grinding every single day trying to put up with jerk-off co-workers, it is so cool to see someone who is out here living their dream. what you have accomplished so far is amazing!
I’m retired, but not long and I can empathize with the co workers. I’ve always found the people I work with to be the most difficult part of work. Clicks, and lazy, or bullying it gets really old. Of course there’s the good coworkers too.
Its great to see your spirit lifted and the self confidence you have gained from working so diligently. We're all cheering for your successful relaunch and a new course forward in life. Keep challenging yourself to be the best you can be. Enjoy the journey each day, the rest will follow.
That adventure, climbing that tree and I guess y’all are the ones that put the netting up there that’s really cool
Glad your fully mobile again .. and have made such great progress.
Scrabbling around in trees seems to be a little like tempting fate but the world is full of all kinds of bonkers gal and playing around in trees is just mildly eccentric... even for a Brit. 😂🧙🏻♂️🇬🇧😉🏝️
I just wanted to let you know that negative comments have not place on your channel. I would bet those who write negative comments could not have done 10% of what you accomplished! I eagerly await your return to the water, keep your positive attitude because the ocean awaits you just a few weeks from now.
Good times 🎉 just a few more projects and splash day 🎉
Huge list ticked off every job brings you so close to launch , can’t wait
Respect for all the work. I figure you will be so happy with the performance results soon.
Great job Nicole. Artha is looking better and better.
That was a huge month of work….. hats off to you my dear 🎩
Well done, very proud of you, envious as well. It's not easy work, that I know from watching my dad build a 52 ft ferrous cement schooner. Like and sub, this gal is awesome.❤🙏😎👍
Wow! Amazing work. I cant wait to see you sailing!!
U
R amazing. I highly doubt that you have less to do.
i believe *you* were correct Chickadoo!
The very highest point should be called the
🦅"Eagle's🦅Nest".
This is what was noticed in my tiny little life,as the Inside Passage was navigated,& Kodiak Island was hiked/explored upon.
🙏🦉
Good job with all your hard work.
Your boat looks & feels Just Right to me.👍
Coming along great young lady 🎉
I'm impressed. When I see your videos, I can easily see future professions - videographer/editor, and fixing other people's boats in a harbor somewhere. That's only when you decide to live a quieter life. In the meantime, enjoy this life and remember to be careful.
Thanks!
Great job. You are so close to getting back in the water. Keep smiling and stay hydrated…it looks really warm.
Dream girls do exist! :)
Cant wait to see it in the water she looks great
Hi Nicole! Like your drive 💪🏻 I decided to buy a hans Christian boat and start sailing to. I had a stroke 10 year ago tierd every day but you inspired me with your drive I had before my stroke,but I realize that I have 2 options. Today I day trade 30 minutes a day and my goal is to bye my boat and sailing 2025. Thanks for inspiration 🙏🏼❤️
Awesome as usual Alway look forward to your next video! Inspiring!
Thank you!
Okay, so just became aware of your Patreon and joined. Questions answered😅
Getting it done woman. Way to stand tall. Can’t wait to see her painted. Stay safe sister….
nice job girl xx
Nicole, Your boat projects are coming along so well and your healing (from all these self-inflicted injuries! lol) have got you back on your feet!
It's also wonderful to see you have fun with someone that you can relate with and is a good hand on boat projects as well.
Cheers
I noticed when you were filming past the engine that the belt on the alternators is not on there right. it goes on the other side of the alternator pulley. Need to change it or will not charge the battery. Great job thanks for the video. Bless wishes on your future travels 😊
I like you, do not know why but it must be your tenacity, your spirit or something else. I hope it all works for you have really put your heart and soul into the rebuilding of this old boat! Jeff
So cool to see you getting your projects done can’t wait to see you sailing again also love the tree climbing that was cool looks like fun
Yep👍☺️
Keep at it, can’t wait to see it in the water and you enjoying all your hard work!
Absolutely crushing it! Go Nicole! :D
Thanks Norbert!
the spy web was wild is amazing when somebody putz a playground like that up
You mentioned a Month, so 60 days, so my suggestions may be past the ability. Check out John of Far Reaching Voyages for his solar panel solutions, he used two capped sealable 12v plugs and made it so he can move his solar panels around. I meant to ask if the boat came with a hard dinghy, usually a Fatty Knees 8' as there is space between the mast and companion way hatch as it was designed for it.
Hope that wasn't solar charges screwed on to hull. Better on a board.
Engine mountings really so important. Have to be 100% for emergency use. Needle files can file bent over threads. 2nd cut, bastard file handy to save spending. Keep good care of tools as out in the ocean that's all you have.
Swimming will help knee but not to much.
Great achievements! video chronologically is fun. And please enjoy having fun with people it keeps everyone sain😂 ❤
Everything is going very well for you, keep it up.
Arthas hull is so beefy looking, its easy to see why its considered to be such a sea-worthy vessel. Will you get the prop reconditioned? It looks like it would just need a good sanding.
Has anyone suggested to you that your propeller shaft is too long and should be shortened a bit, the longer it is the easier it will bend.
I'm still watching for the bees.
Great job... Lots of projects completed... Most are easier OUT of the water..lol
What about new muffler bearings
Bravo et bon courage !
I forgot to say Arthas looking great! Any idea how long before you put her back in the water?
I always thought Daniel was a little weirdo that liked climbing trees. I did not picture you as one of those weirdos.....(I'm a weirdo also)... When they moved the stands, it had to be an awesome feeling to see a glimpse of the bottom that you started with and what you made of it.
Well done nice job how did the mouse eat the elephant one bite at a time be in the water before you know it
Only because you say you like to read the comments I will be happy to help accommodate you. What a wonderful terrific job you've done getting this boat back together and getting ready to do some voyaging I'm very very proud and happy for you you don't know me I don't know you but I'm very happy for you sweetheart. When you start voyaging and you need an extra hand or two please don't hesitate to let me know I will be happy to help you sell this boat anywhere you want to go....❤❤❤😊😊😊
🙏
🎉
You are a bad ass
❤❤🎉
You gotta speed this up to urrent times or at least up to 2 weeks behind instead of a month and a half behind ,ard u sailing now? should be !⛵⚓⛵🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🍻
😊✊🏻🏴
You're racing away...
Getting seasick with all the rapid camera movements 🙃
🇹🇷🇹🇷👍👍
I suppose that you never did cover that nice re-built rudder with a layer of fiberglass cloth set in epoxy. Tsk-Tsk. . . . . . . . .
I have always heard that work pronounced as "boomkin," but I don't know everything. maybe "bumkin" is correct.
Your punch list is getting shorter to floating day.
Unsubbing, waiting about a month before posting here. Kind of defeats the purpose of me watching your progress and thinking it's updated to date or close to date.
No problem, I created five accounts for you and subbed all of them! 👍😝😝😝
@@keshermedia it would make sense someone with 5 accounts would reply to this. almost like you're either related to this streamer or are this streamer. hagl..
Like almost all other sailing videos there is abit of security needed especially for solo women sailors who upload videos . If you are looking for the most current up to date video uplaods then search around .They are out there. BUT know that Sailing Arta's channel and informational videos on her projects are delayed for a reason. If you want to see her latest stuff and see current updates become a Patron and support her work. Otherwise move along.
I don’t know how this could be so horrible for you that the video time line lags a bit that you would drop such an inspiring young content creator that does it for nothing for you, take the good out of this channel which shows other young women they can do anything they like if they put in the hard work
