Hey friends. Can I say again that it's GREAT to be back? We missed you all while we were gone, and can’t possibly express how much all of your comments on last weeks video mean’t to Katy and I. Clearly you all missed us too, and that really inspires us to do the best at what we do. So again, thank you all ❤️
In this video, we are residents of Shelter Bay Marina working toward casting the lines and setting off into the Caribbean Sea. Our days at this point of owning Boundless are becoming smooth. We’ve worked hard getting to know her, and because of that she’s feeling like home. Mornings are spent drinking coffee, cooking breakfast and working on the computer. We flow through our yoga practices, and evenings are spent cooking and enjoying each others company late into the night.
Boundless is quickly becoming part of our family. However there is one part of our new boat, that we haven’t gotten up close and personal with yet. It’s a right of passage with owning a boat. Something we knew was coming, didn’t know when, and silently hoped it wouldn’t. If you own a boat, you might know what I’m talking about. The gross, smelly, and disgusting TOILET. We all know that moment when we go to the head and do our business, only to find that when you go to flush the toilet, it doesn’t work. So welcome to the crappiest job on the boat…fixing the toilet.

Loved the video, and love your ability to repair just about anything on the boat. I thought I was a pretty good handyman around the house doing plumbing, electrical, woodworking, etc. but you have got me beaten hands down and I love it. Looking forward to your future videos and especially they changeout of the rigging because that is definitely not an easy job and I know from previous videos that you will handle it masterfully. Love the loving interaction between you and Katy. Wishing you many years of wedded bliss. I was lucky to have married a great wife of 58 years until I lost her to cancer 2 years ago November. I hope the two of you surpass that record, and I know that you are going to have some great adventures to share when you finish getting the new boat ready to hit the ocean once more. ❤

Parker, your precious nerdy nikpicky back yard engineering and curiosity about how things work is a treasure. Keep it up, those qualities got Teal that most wonderful Basik catamaran. I hope your partner treasures this character as much as the rest of us do. You need a portable workbench/worktop that you can clamp on a rail or something and stow behind a locker. I'm sure you can design something perfectly elegant. Thanks for sharing your potty adventures ... keep eating all that fiber and flush, flush, flushing.

Dude, you could market that skill! The fact your familial experience developed a tolerance to what, I have heard, is one of most detested jobs on the water... Offer 'preventative maintenance' in each port you enter, you could make a frigg'in profit by cruising! I hope this gives you a chuckle, rather than a gag reflex! It was so good of you, to take his stinky self to dinner, and sit at the same table, was so adorable of you!

@chrissterba501 7 месяцев назад
Very happy to see you two back at it and as always enjoy the video content! Yes, in my case, I am familiar with the antisiphon / vent aspects required in plumbing, but I personally gained value from watching in how you thought twice about what you working with / assumptions and discovered that the valve you were looking at was actually for something else. Quite easily overlooked and a good reminder in diagnosis for all of us. I'm the same way. I get so wrapped up in just what I am working on and easily think my assumptions of the project are correct / related to just what I am focused on. I'm quite guilty in always trying to solve problems under a microscope vision without allowing myself to step back and re-think. Wish you two a very happy, healthy, and exciting new year! Not too exciting though, try to make sure those lightning strikes don't get too wild:-)

Great job with the Head maintenance! That would have been a good time to replace most of the sanitary hoses. They may look good but with age they become permeable and will leave an unfavorable lingering scent in the boat.

They just tell how bad the storm was but not show much of it. We like to experience some of what you experience. As for the boat work in this video. Well done and yes, a shit of a job, but you gotta do what you gotta do! Peter Australia

This is a great presentation of the marine head maintenance. I saw one thing that I question. The new antisiphon loop appears to be significantly lower than the shower loop. Is it sufficiently below the waterline when healed (rail in the water)? If not, you may want to extend it a bit. Alternatively, you could remember to close the thru hull when on passage. But I know I would forget.
@SailingSeawind
@SailingSeawind 6 месяцев назад
The anti siphoned loop is still high above the waterline but yes it is lower than the shower loop. I think we’re safe with its height. No issues as of yet!
