COLD and ALONE // Plus a Moisture Update! // Winter Boat Life

Описание: One of the biggest challenges we face as winter liveaboards is the COLD! In this episode I spend a few days alone on the boat during a cold snap. I take you along for many of our daily routines while living on the boat during winter. These include removing logs that wash in from winter storms, dealing with the changing elements and trying to stay warm. We continue to make our little home more comfortable as we learn from our community and try out new techniques. That being said, I can't WAIT for spring to come!

As many of you may know, we struggled with moisture and mould in the boat last year, primarily in the V-berth. We are happy to report that the various measures we've implemented have been working! The boat and V-berth are much more comfortable now that we can keep it dry :)

If you are new to the channel, Blue Moon is a 1978 Catalina 30 sailing vessel which we acquired in 2020. One year later we decided it was time for a road trip and built out a 1998 Delica to drive across the country. Now we live aboard the boat full-time, take weekend trips in the van, and explore this beautiful world.

Thanks for watching!
