mistress overhaul part1 #boat #diy #boating #yacht #restoration #ship #deck #boatrenovation
Evening Guys...
A bonus video for you all today..
Mistress has been quietly in the background sitting and begging for some
attention.
So ive decided to sort out a few things with her and get her sailing again for this season in the bay while also putting her up for sale.
Its been a great ride and we have worked hard to rescue this little boat and im quite sad to let her go.
However if i consider how she used to look and that very likely she would have been chopped up had we not intervened , making her a workiing sailable boat again has been only a pleasure.
Now its someone elses turn to to enjoy her.
cheers guys enjoy...

Electrical cabin work part1 #boat #diy #boating #yacht #restoration #ship #deck #boatrenovation
Hi everyone.. Hope you have had a great week.
This week aboard Aisling we finally get to tackle the scary situation with the nav systems electronics.
There is so much there to unpack that it will probably be a few episodes to cover it all.
For now however ill be happy to just identify what works and what doesn't.

S/V Aisling gets post haulout Doghouse seating repairs..! Part 1
Greetings everyone...
Welcome back and this week we are aboard my yacht a 48ft lello designed cutter ketch called Aisling.
we got her 4 years ago and have been living aboard all this time up to just recently.
A great deal of work has already been done and you can see some of it over on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/tideslesstraveled/ .
However today ill show you some of the work done on the Doghouse seating area. This is mostly old teak but its completely not worth maintaining or trying to repair.
Most of the damage is under the teak so we have decided its easier on maintenance and pocket if we just glass this over and paint.
This is the first episode of this repair.
hope you enjoy and thanks for watching.

Haul out S/V Crusader Part 3
Hi all you wonderful internet people
This episode was a disaster from start to end but not with the work on Crusader.
Rather faulty SD cards and failing mic's.. Hopefully if this channel grows i can save up a bit for some decent equipment to make this easier.
Meantime please enjoy this final episode in the Crusader restoration
and thanks for your continued support.
