Charleston, SC to Isle of Hope, GA (Hurricane Nicole and more) | SV Voyager Journey South Ep 3
We start off the 4th leg of our trip wrapping up the issues with our injury at sea detailed in the previous episode. We spend a few days before Amy and I shove off. We had planned to be in Florida for our daughter's visit, but with various delays it wasn't going to be possible. So we make the decision to make for Isle of Hope and meet her there. Then Hurricane Nicole throws a wrench in the works and we've got the weirdest 24 period of our cruising lives.
Join us for this shorter video detailing what happened and then on to the final leg 5 to Port Canaveral and the end of the fall 2022 series.

SV Voyager is a Lagoon 420 catamaran and our home away from home. We've spent the past two summers learning and improving our boat. We've sailed the waters of the Chesapeake extensively and are now up for the challenge of sailing back to Florida and over to the Bahamas. We're learning to be full-time liveaboards by living, working, and relaxing on the sea. Thank for following our sailing journey!

We're at it in the yard - the first week. Hull cleaning, dinghy repair, assessing projects.
Переглядів 436 місяців тому
We've already drilled out, chamfered, and filled the three hull penetrations that were causing us so much distress over the past year or so. We used West System Six10 and it did a nice job filling the holes clear through. While I was working on that project, Amy got started on acid washing the hull. We're pretty happy with the results as you'll see. We also got the dinghy leak cleaned up and re...
Rehabbing a Quick Nautic B3 Marine Water Heater

In this video I recap overhauling our Nautic Water Boiler. It had been leaking around some of the fittings since we bought the boat, but when the electrical heating went out last year it was time to rehab. We discovered the heating element was done, so we bought a new one, replaced some other key components, tested it, and reassembled. Now, it's ready to go back into the boat. I hope this video...
Thanks for the Mess!

    Congratulations on finding your leak. It looks to me like that was a thru hull with a grate strainer and they use 4 screws to locate them from the outside. Looks like they may have drilled through on that screw.

      Thanks for the comment Gary! It's definitely a new experience. Each of us had our own fears and apprehensions to overcome, but with no sail changes, very straightforward navigation, it made the ideal passage for a first-timer. With really little risk, we were able to wrestle with the disorientation, shifts and sleep, and the really cool and unusual experience of watching it go from total dark to daylight underway!

    Old Friend Since I have zero cruising experience I can only offer racing advice. 1. Sail fast, take chances. 2. Always gybe at top speed, the boat is more stable and there is less load in the main. 3. If the wind is behind beam regardless of the conditions, pop the chute and send it. There is never a discussion on whether to set or not. It’s a law as strong as gravity. Wait, your on a multihull, in that case never let the wind go behind beam but still pop the a-sim and send it.(That’s from my multihull racing days). 4. Don’t listen a damn thing I say. You post the videos and I will watch them. If I were to buy a cruising boat your boat would at the top of the list. A.J.

      Quite possibly. The boat has been quiet for a few weeks, so they've either gone somewhere or put themselves up in a Air BnB. I do have to say they attract a lot of attention. I can appreciate why they like their privacy. The "drive by's" by dinghy and boat have even become a bit bothersome for us. It is pretty neat. We came walking down the dock.... "Oh there's an Outremer docked beside us...how interesting. Wait....OMG what? What are the chances...?"

    Keep a net bag stashed in your BCD. When you're on the surface, stuff it in the bag and clip it to your BCD. Also, use your main regulator as your octopus and keep your regular mask stashed in your BCD in an attached pouch as well.
