    What do you think our next boat job should be? Finish our head door? Install our back up auto pilot? Install Port Lights... apart from finishing up our water maker of course!

      Any and all of these jobs will be exciting to watch. Since I'm big on safety I would say in order back up autopilot, port lights and head door but I sure trust your jugement and decisions.

      I love the unscripted intro. You two are so much fun to watch when excited and speaking at the same time :)

    In my wast experience on marine sanitation systems I found that the only reliable system is the seat hanging over the side of the vessel. keeping it clean is very easy, provided it is on the leeward side, and in certain sea condition you get the extra benefit of bidet.

    Don't change to saltwater for your heads unless you like clean out the outlet hose every year. I've lived aboard for 43 years. the first 30 I suffered the smell and cleaning job not realizing how much better a freshwater head is. You have a watermaker, make it happy and use it. You'll be happier.

    Old timer tip: Put a piece of Camphor block in your tool box and your tools won't rust. My Grampa was a Tool & Die maker and he had a block of camphor in each tool tray. Cheers! Rick & Lori

    Boy was that an update for the loo. Don't forget to put up a sticker that says "Don't push buttons while on the toilet" so there are no accidents with guests! Great work you two. Take care, stay well and my vote is to get the auto pilot done.

    Ricky, you did an awesome job on the plugs you made for the WC. Brilliant. Looks good!

    Hi you can soak your rusty tools in clear vinegar for a few hours and it will take some of that rust off
    Happy sailing

    The global pandemic situation is still a huge bummer, but its still so nice to see you and the boat in Cape Town, such a great city.

    Thanks Ricky and Simone ..... Just Love Your vidclips .... When it is getting close to 'The End' ..... Ahhhh, Not already !!!!!! ..... :-) :-) :-) . Just love your subtle mention of the Products that you use .... Look like Brilliant pieces of 'Kit' .... I never knew that VETUS does Such a Wide Range of Products ..... Wow !!!! .... Sounds like they are Super Helpful too ......
    That VICTRON 'Gear' sounds so adaptable, not that I will ever need anything, .... But as an Engineer I sure can appreciate what you are doing .... Simone, thanks a Stack for including those Absolutely Stunning photos of out Hometown ...." Ai Man, man se Hart trek so na 'n Punt " ..... Just had to be say in 'That Language' .... Nothing else will as descriptive ..... :-) :-) :-)
    Keep well Guys, Stay Safe, Cheers from NZ

    Good job. The shower/head sliding door project can wait. Weather dependant jobs (port lights) and essential for sailing jobs would take priority, in my opinion. Cheers. P.S. nothing wrong with concurrent projects!

    There's nothing like a proper throne to sit on. You're right about the Jabsco type of non-return.
    Remember, the jobs not finished until the paperwork is done.

    You gotta love technology... I can see future toilets with controller boxes with bluetooth technology. You'll be able to monitor how big the poop is as it travels into the tank. Yep, it'll have graphic capabilities as well. Lol. Good job guys.

    Another GREAT video. When you Guys head to Namibia. Check out Spencer Bay. You need to get a permit in advance, to go onto the Island. Check our Delos episode 146 about 9min in. Have Fun.

    I would get all the outside jobs done weather dependent and do the inside jobs when the weather are not so good. Or if that doesn’t work chuck the todo list in a hat and have a luck draw out of the hat
