Boat Projects Continued! Fixing the Rudder On Our Seawind 1600 Catamaran | Harbors Unknown Ep 22

If you missed part 1 of this video check it out here https://youtu.be/-7yDC9Zw82M to see how we prepped the rudder, and used epoxy and fiberglass to repair it. We’ll be sailing again soon, but in the meantime check out this playlist https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCwNmkqXr8562e564Xf2Ih6i-VSvG9POu to see how the Seawind 1600 performs in a variety of conditions.

Last week you saw that we hit bottom and damaged our rudder. Luckily our friend Pablo taught us how to sand away the roughed up places and apply epoxy and fiberglass to create a new substrate. This week Pablo is showing us how to finish up the repairs and we celebrate with a delicious home cooked meal with veggies straight from his garden.

If you're new here, Harbors Unknown is the story of two dreamers, Kristin and Fabio Potenti, and our French Bulldog dog Yoda. We sold our home at the beginning of the pandemic (May 27th, 2020) and moved aboard our #Seawind1600 #catamaran, Wanderlust, in September. We plan to sail her to Harbors Unknown, and explore the world’s vast cultures through food, a common thread amongst people everywhere. Connecting with people and places through the local cuisine, and showing how those dishes can be cooked on a boat with limited space and resources. We share the adventures of #boatlife and how it’s possible to live an #alternativelifestyle that provides freedom and fulfillment. Until we officially begin our world voyage, we’re exploring the beautiful waters of #SouthFlorida and the Florida Keys. Subscribe now to join our #sailingadventure.
