We're back in RIO DULCE and the work starts NOW!

We are Steve, Annette and Gus — and we are back in Rio Dulce, Guatemala. Phase one of Cordelia's major refit is done, now the real work begins for phase two, bigger, more challenging and if we're honest, a little daunting.
In this episode we get the boat ready to go into full work mode: sails down, sun shades up, and everything squared away before we roll up our sleeves. Then we walk you through exactly what Phase Two involves, the full list and then we get started.
This isn't the most glamorous episode we've ever made, but if you want to know what the sailing life really looks like beyond the sunsets and the anchorages, this one is for you because this is what it actually takes to keep a 42-year-old boat sailing and we wouldn't change it for the world.

👇 Come and join the conversation below — we'd love to hear from you.

Watch our liveaboard life and what it's really like to live full-time on a 1984 46ft Venus Ketch. We sail from anchorage to anchorage, country to country living off-grid almost all the time.
We are a real genuine couple that are not out to impress. We are who we are and enjoy life to the full.
Follow us each Friday to find out where we are and what we’ve been up to.
Our videos are no more than 2 weeks behind real time.
We intend to SAIL AS FAR AS WE CAN FOR AS LONG AS WE CAN.
Thanks for watching, The Cordelians Steve, Annette & Gus 🥰 ⛵️ 🐾
