    FREE PROVISIONING GUIDE
    Pascale has put together a FREE 40 page Provisioning Guide. The Guide explains and provides examples of how we can travel eating a variety of healthy and delicious meals for up to 6 months at a time on our tiny boat with no resupply. There has never been a better time to start learning how to increase the food storage potential of your home. I hope this guide will inspire you to make more informed long term provisioning choices for the future! For more information visit the Provisioning Page on our website ( www.freerangesailing.com/boat-provisioning ) or to grab a copy directly by clicking on the link below.

    The biproducts and waste from our modern throw-away society are a gold mine for the ingenious and innovative chaps like Troy and myself. While I miss the sailing on Mirrool, this farmstead stuff is addicting. The farm life is probably a good move providing a bit more legroom for your new crew member. Peace and Love to you all.

    I want my own fire pit with all your modifications. I love the creativity of all your projects. The trampoline made me do a Homer Simpson: "Doh!" So obvious in hindsight.

    I very much enjoyed the refresher on all these clever creations of Troys. It reminded me to look more closely at things before I discard them in case there might be a opportunity to repurpose the item instead.

    Troy you're the "McGiver" of YT. Very handy at remaking things that have a purpose. I like the movable laying pen & that Barbecue is fantastic. Cheers mate.

    Been with you for 4 or 5 years now. Starting with sailing and now to the homestead.. I can't do much on supporting you other than the likes and subscribes.. but I do have 2 sailing tees. And just got a homestead tee... love the videos ...

    Hi guys, good to see you’re right in Recycling unfortunately we live in a throwaway society. It’s wonderful to see someone see beyond a piece of junk to some people and you can change it into something useful keep up the good work. Love your videos , Cliff from Logan City Queensland Australia 🇦🇺🧑🏾‍🦽

    Some superb items there, nice one. Love the cold/offset smoker! Especially the brake rotor/disc door :) And yes, you building a boat from plans would be epic to watch ... and doubtless will inspire many to try it themselves. All the best and much love to you, Pascale, and Constance.

    A bit of flat bar 100mm x 10mm on the carry all will give you a blade to level ground. Great mods. Good screw pun.

      Sadly, my 3PL doesn't have a float function but the front does have a bucket, so I back blade as much as my neck will agree to.

    I am glad you two decided to evolve from Sailing to homesteading. Lot of good stuff and Oh my gosh! Building a family is the best. I live in Texas and have 6 kids, (ha! not goats), 14 grandkids, and now we have one great grandchild. Family is the most rewarding part of life but there will be some knocks along the way. Would not trade it for anything. God bless you guys !

    A lot of good information here guys. Condensing everything into one episode, was/is a great idea. Thank you again. I think,in a previous comment, I referenced the "Father of British Self Sufficiency" John Seymour, in particular a goat milking platform. However since then, I see that others have done that same design. So the designer of the original, is unknown. I guess, it's a case of whatever works for you. Again thank you for sharing your knowledge. How's bubba going/doing?? Take care and atb from across the ditch.

    to smoke meat all you needis just some thin blue smoke, just very whispy. to much smoke and you'll get a condition calld creasote. smoking meat is like my thing. save your corn cobs, they make some nice light smoke. a very light smoke flavor flavor.

      In the last video, we explained that to get worldwide delivery at a reasonable price point for everyone, we use a US based company. Our audience is only partially Australian and there are no Aussie companies that meet our requirements.

    Tried to Email you, not sure that it went through so: I follow your RUclips channel and I also follow a channel call "Emily & Clark's Adventure". Clark is looking for someone to represent his "Battery bank manager" for sailing/homestead off grid stuff in Australia, I thought you might be interested. If you watch their most recent video it has some info. Also, there are other videos about the bank manager you can watch if you are interested. Just a thought I decided to pass on to you.

    Building a boat ? I thought you said building a goat and the start of this video made me think you had already succeeded. You do realise you cannot milk a boat don’t you ?
