I have watched your vids for a couple of years now, i dont remember commenting before although i always leave a like. However, i am compelled to write. You are a very VERY remarkable lady i cant tell you how impressed i am having done the exact same job myself last year. Absolutely the purest example of determination and never giving in. 😊

@WindHippieSailing Год назад

Thank you so much!:)

@bforshay Год назад

I'm impressed. Not an easy project, even whrm everything goes perfectly. And in a boat it's harder. Nice job!

@bdlii Год назад

Nice to see you getting down to the business of maintenance. Impressive the amount of work you personally contributed to such a challenging project.

@derekkeith108 Год назад

The collab I have always wanted, James and Holly.

She's a real Seaman! James is a panicky little harbour loving girlyboy who's sailed about 6 tacks on the ocean in his life. 😋

@RobOnBusiness Месяц назад

Holly - you're incredible! As a retired heavy duty mechanic, I'm impressed with your determination and skill at improvisation! That is the true hallmark of survival! Way to go - there's nothing you can't do.😀👍

Sailor James and wind Hippie. My two favorite solo sailors!

@JP-dc3zn Год назад

Your control of all the situations you have endured in the last several video's is amazing and as a viewer I could feel the emotion and strength you presented in overcoming them. Fair Winds and Following Seas

@johnsmith-ke2sr Год назад

Hi, Well done. I've been critical before of some of the risks you have taken. However, hats off to you for getting this sorted and doing such a competent job. Hopefully this engine will do you for many happy and safe miles. So good to see.

@sullybiker6520 Год назад

I remember following all this on your IG stories and just being amazed at you getting stuck in there. It's a hell of an achievement.

@stuartsutherland7664 Год назад

"The red bastard", I love it! I think I'd have to train as a contorsionist to work in that engine room! You're certainly not afraid to get your hands dirty working on your boat. Mighty impressed!

Needing to twist in behind the engine is always a nice reminder to do my morning yoga haha

Oh wow, I love when the cool channels cross-over each other! I've been following James on Sailing Triteia for some time and it was cool to see that he made it to New Zealand. It's also great to see how friendly the folks in the marina were. Great job captain!

Happy days forever, SkipRay, Kerry, Ireland. (And it is knarley and raining here!)

Just came across your channel. I love it. The Bukh engines are a fantastic little engine. It will give you decades of service.

So cool that you and James from Tritea are friends. His channel is one of my all time favorites… as is yours (of course).

@Seabee441 Год назад

I am impressed by the language skills and the ability to articulate the procedure of engine removal so well, You are not a novice when it comes to mechanical work, kudos to you for a job well done. A side comment, I purchased my Catalina 27 in Dana point California and had a wonderful time being around the sailing culture. I loved it

@davidnichols147 Год назад

Kia ora Holly, I spent many "fun" hours working on my BUKH 20... fantastic little work horse that had done over 10000 hours.. I lost my yacht a month ago... rolled and dismasted out from Napier in a southerly storm that just kept on getting stronger with huge swells... the BUKH 20 had run till the last.. mine was named Angus... great work.. cheers, Alex

@47colton Год назад

As a licenced aircraft mechanic and a guy who has repaired old things..I get a kick out of watching you work on your engine. The way you named it made me chuckle. :)

@WindHippieSailing Год назад

Haha yes it's always important to name things like this

@47colton Год назад

@@WindHippieSailing I didnt want to post this for everyone to see but if you have left wires flopping around eventually they will break wherever they are fastened to something. Same with fuel lines. There are best practices that should be followed to prevent dangerous failures and sometimes amatures doing their own work may not see a potential problem. Sometimes its good to have a REAL mechanic take a look at your work and make sure its safe. Or maybe face time your father and let him look things over. I think you are awesome but im a dad too and wouldnt want you to have a dangerous situation develope..:)

@johnnicolson467 Год назад

Bolts go in from the top so if the nut comes off the engine stays in the same place. The thing you call the foot is an engine mount.

@MrSoundpix Год назад

Good job. BUKH is a very solid engine.. I´ve had a couple my self, and they never failed. Like your boat, it´s made here in Denmark. You were lucky to find one on the other side of the world. Have a nice trip.

@trentdelancy3130 Год назад

Good to see that the engine shouldn't break down as much. Get going on the rest of your journey. Fair winds ahead.

@johncooper5293 Год назад

Impressive work. I suppose having a single cylinder engine made it slightly easier. Nice to see how helpful everyone was.

@SVCamelot Год назад

I have been really enjoying your videos for some time. Your engine change out was especially interesting, especially having done the same thing myself. I was concerned how you were going to align the engine as those mounts did not appear to be adjustable. I am sure you got it done anyway. What is most imprerssive to me is your ingenuity along with your attitude which seems to remain cailm in pretty much all diversity which arises for you. Quite impressive!

@WindHippieSailing Год назад

Since it was the same engine model that my old one was, I wasn't too worried about getting it lined up. Luckily it didn't prove to be too difficult
