  • In this video we catch you guys up from our last video which took place on the Intracoastal Waterway. We get the projects started by installing our solar and dinghy davits. We had a major incident back in February that has caused us to step away from TH-cam. It feels good to be back!

    Just a tip. Hang an open umbrella upside down under where you’re working. Obviously it won’t catch big stuff but it’s saved many bolts for me over the years.

    It's comforting know that God had the right people close by in the time of need. The Evans are great young people to have in your corner. God has blessed them in so many ways and they are sure loving and caring people. So God put them that night to be a blessing to you kids. I've been following them back when the first got their boat to rebuild. So I've seen the many ways God has blessed them over the years. And now it's good to see God using them to bless you kids. I thank God for giving you the strength to get through all that pain. And God's mercy put all the right people in place to help you kids go through that time in your lives.....
    It's good to see your back out here, I'm looking forward to your next videos to come. So we'll keep on praying for you kids and be blessed in Jesus name... BBE..

    Hey guys, I just found y'all through the Expedition Evans channel. I'm hoping Andre healed up okay after the fire. I was wanting to ask since you have a hunter sailboat, I keep seeing negative comments about the quality of Hunter sailboats, what has been your experience in owning one? Thanks and keep up posting!

    Glad to see you all are back and Andre is healed up. Good thing you were there close to your buddies, the Evans. Aiyana , keep him away from the stove, just kidding now that your alright. I hope you got rid of that alcohol stove and went with propane ,it is much safer as long as you keep the bottle turned off when your not using the stove. Keep putting out your videos ,i enjoy watching yawl live your dream. Thank You

    @jsmith5634 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Another great video…I watched this one out of order but it’s great to see all the upgrades. I’m not sure what the core of your Hunter is but if it’s balsa, you may want to follow the “Drill - Fill - Drill” method using epoxy to prevent water intrusion. (see Mads on Sail Life channel and his methods) It looks like you might have multiple episodes “on deck” from the past 6 months so hopefully you made it to the Bahamas and out before Hurricane Season! Looking forward to following Naida’s journey. Also found you guys via the EE episode where the accident happened and have been a subscriber since. Fair Winds from Boston !!
