    Wow. So you bought a boat without having it hauled out first. That was brave. Glad it all worked out.

    The most under rated channel on RUclips is this one. Two genuinely good people living their best lives and letting us join along. Most post unrealistic videos about how good everything is, Steph and Travis post real life, real problems, real successes..........and failures. Thanks again for letting us be a part of that. 😊
    Steph mentioned the polishing system for the diesel, Id be interested one day to see what that looks like, is it a Racor system or something different? I love that technical stuff +1 for Travis builds videos hahah

    When I replaced my old packing seal with the dripless seal system that hose coming out of the graphite ring was supposed to be connected to the raw water system (I tee'd it off the water line going to the heat exchanger) as a way to cool the friction created between the graphite and stainless collar. Perhaps yours is different but that's what the instructions said for my powerboat. Congrats on your beautiful new rig! Really enjoy your vids!

    Great boat. We got very close to buying the sister ship in Bainbridge many years ago. It is a very strong boat and after making it your own should keep you safe for many years. On Cygnus we have the Canadian built Aldura aluminum dinghy. Will be curious to see if you have the same. Tried to contact the yard but no answer.

    Being a power boater I always laugh at how small the boat’s prop is on such a big sail boat and with a 6 and 1/2 foot draft I am guessing you guys are planning some serious ocean wandering. Have you guys calculated what your boat’s hull speed is yet? Looking forward to watching your travels. But I also really hope you guys do a lot of boat repair videos.
