Aaaa! The fun of being on the hard and the ton of things you have to do. Ben there done that. And it I s apart of boat 🚢 life. Sorry I messed ya'll live. I was helping a New Neighbor pick up there truck in Helo. It's always a fun day to get the last of your things to the Island that you have shipped from the mainland. It is mid June and it is 2:53 a.m. And I am out here looking at the Moon light reflection of the Ocean. Can't wait to see ya'lls sails on the Horizon someday. Ok Thank you again for a Great video this week. And until next time, Aloha from the Big Island of Hawaii! Cheers 🍻

You were missed at the premiere! But we'll catch you next time I'm sure. Nice of you to help out a neighbour. And yeah life on the hard isn't exactly a joy but it is necessary. We're floating now and I'm excited to start making the episodes about our sailing adventures. Can't wait to see Hawaii on our horizon that's for sure!! Aloha! 🌺

How cold is it it? Is it diesel? Is it parafon based? Maybe the fuel is thickening as the parafon congeals due to the cold. Use Non-parafon based diesel.

It was pretty cold. Water temp was likely only a few degrees celsius. Not sure about the parafon diesel...

If your VHF has an aux port in the back then you can install a small cheap speaker in the cockpit and plug it in via aux cable. i have one in my cockpit that allows me to hear the radio on the helm even when it's connected down below.

@turtlecrossingsailing

Hey! There is no zinc anode on the shaft. We have tear drop shaped zincs on the rudder. We were planning on putting a zinc collar on the shaft while it is out of the water but there is not enough space. The tear drops on the rudder will have to suffice.

Lovin' your videos! Ever go sailing in northern Ontario? I'm playing catchup :) We just left our first sailboat that we're gonna be selling- near Manitoulin- and moved to Nova Scotia- big learning curve with our 41' Island Trader :) Curious- if you sail up to Killarney, flit over to Manitoulin, enjoy the beautiful best fresh water sailing of the Benjamins-- and cross over at the Sault and go down the Missisippi? Come back up via the intercoastal?

We've never done anything beyond Lake Ontario (yet). We'd love to sail around Manitoulin. My grandparents had a cottage up there when I was younger and it's such gorgeous water and shoreline. 41' is a lot more boat than our little 32' for sure! Sometimes I think about getting a slightly bigger boat, but I think the advantages of our little boat outweigh the negatives right now... Maybe someday. We're still deciding our route south... we'll probably know better in July. Thanks for watching!

@@turtlecrossingsailing We purchased our 1986 34' Catalina from Midland, brought her Manitoulin and sailed in that area- Little Current and Spanish/the Benjamins and Killarney for about 7 years. Hubby rebuilt the motor, and now it has a new rudder. Two cabin, one bath, L-shaped galley... slightly bigger for ya guys! It's sitting in the Blind River area and not officially listed, but up for sale! She will need new rigging and sails, although they're good for a few seasons we think. Full canvas enslosure- except for the mosquito netting stuff, great cushions-- JUST SAYIN"!! You really have to go to Manitoulin and visit your gramma's old stompin' grounds, it's magical for sure!
