- Hello Everyone!
So this is what we call a shit show episode. It's an episode where everything goes wrong. First we start off with us running aground in some shifting sands. The next part is a little better because Nathalie changes the engine mount which we had to change due to an oil leak we had last year which caused the mount pad to deteriorate. We couldn't let you guys see everything that went wrong so stay tuned for next weeks episode and watch to find out what else happens!!

It fascinates me how two sisters can spend 24/7 together with their parents on the confined space of a boat. All with no drama. Hats off to you all for your mastery of family crewing.
Yes that is interesting huh? We make it work😁
Nothing more attractive to a man than a woman that can turn a wrench. Nice job on the motor mount.
Haha thank you!!
Hiya dear ladies, what a great privilege for you to have your dad teaching you both so much about the how & why of keeping your home on the move! How wonderful of you both to do the work & keep us entertained & enlightened as you go... Oh, how much do I wish to be in the sun about now! I'm very envious of you all being there!!!
Stay safe...Steve...
Thank you!! Yes it’s so nice to have him there teaching us as we go. Definitely cancels out a lot of trial and error
@@SailingTheFarSideI've fitted an engine mount on a Perkins engine in a generator when I was in charge of 9 of them used in film & TV. Nothing beats a good teacher taking you through the work. Steve...
WOW Nathalie you are amazing .i can think of many men who could not have got that sail in the way you did. Awesome babe.
Thank you!!!
2 of my favorite sailing creators! Waiting on the next video.
Thank you!!
There are times when I feel/share your anxiety while watching the videos, having been there done that, but I always feel better when Sascha gives the hang loose sign from the helm. You look good with a sawz all in your hands Nathalie - good work! Cheers girls.
Haha thanks!! The hang loose sign cures most anxiety..
As always great show

Lookin' good .. currently I'm helping my friend change the mounts on a Perkins 236 .. I don't envy you at all. The new mounts had different hole pattern. Got the rear done a couple weeks ago, working on the front. Had to cut the stem off as well. I enjoy following you gals on your journey. I'll be out there on a couple months on my boat. Take care.
Yes it was quite the job but I’m glad I had the dad around to help stear me in the right direction, good luck with yours!!😁
Almost 20k.... You rock, ladies!
Super exciting!!!
Pro tip. Spots don’t get “fished out.” If it’s good habitat, the fish are there. Try a different tide.
This is true, it was an incoming tide so there weren't as many
Hi awesome ladies! Job well done greasy Nathalie!
Thanks so much😁
I caught a lot of gags, greys, and red grouper, but never saw a yellow fin grouper before. Nice catch !!
They’re sooo yummy!!
You both are my favorite Skippets !
Keep on rockin those great video's .
And showin em who's boss.

Thank you😁 gotta show everyone who is boss💪🏼
Hi ladies!! Awesome video as usual. Hope you got the dive light I sent you.
Thank you!! Yes we did! We are going to put together abs thank you video shortly!!

Brilliant video! Loved the buff!
Stay safe! ❤️
Could definitely be helpful!!

Thank you!!
I'm loving your spearfishing adventures for dinner awesome!!!!
Thanks!! Gotta catch good if we want to eat!
cmon girls more vlogs, im hooked
Every week😁
I see you got a cordless saw....Sweet. Hope you got a full kit. I use the drill with a wire brush head to clean terminals, bolts and anything else crusty. I love eating trigger fish...hate cleaning them, lol. We caught a bunch last week. Good job on that engine mount, Nathalie!
Thank you!! Yah, we’ve got a pretty complete kit. Trigger is one of our favorites! But yah not fun to clean..
Another great video!!
Thank you 😁
That water color was the shit"
Beyond beautiful..
The not so glamorous side of sailing, The maintenance goes on forever ⛵
It does!!!
mom @ 4:28 luv it
Great idea with the buff on your head. Looks like a new merch item for the store.
You think people would like sailing the far side buffs?
@@SailingTheFarSide Yes they would.
Love spear fishing in shallow water. You two will never go hungry. 😁😁
Our skills have greatly improved!!
@@SailingTheFarSide what happens if Nathalie and Sascha get removed from their captains duties?
@@evanbelknap3884 what do you mean?
I love your shirts!
Thank you!! They are Majamas. In the next episode we mention where they are from
Hunting with a spear! Respect!
Thank you😁
Question: after you replace an engine mount, don’t you need to realign the engine/drive shaft?
Usually yes... but it was such a slight movement it didn’t set anything out of alignment
That channel ( 69 ) was always called the pleasure channel specially if you wanted to get away from everyone else you just tell those that know to jump over to the Pleasure channel.
Yes that’s usually where we find ourselves with our buddy boats😁
Why are you 2months behind 🤷🏼♂️ well done Nathalie 🔧 not scared of getting greasy 🧤😆🇬🇧
Too much content!! We want to share it all with you guys!
Love your genuineness. So what's the plan ? After your Father graduates you from Cruising & Boat Repair 101, are you Gals going to set sail for some exotic destination like Bora Bora 🏝. If so, will you need a deckhand ? Lol...... ⛵
Yes!!!! That is our dream destination. We’re trying to decide when we’ll do the pacific crossing. Hopefully in the next year!
@@SailingTheFarSide Wow ! Now I'm excited....let me know when should I report dock side ? - Kidding. On a serious note, before you sail away, you two should consider taking a Women's Self Defense course. If, in the unlikely case, you would have the skills and confidence to deal with an unruly situation. Advice from a Father.
@@brian7261 good idea!😁
Your mom turned me on to your channel lol she awesome
Yes she is our number one fan😁
Boat mechanic for hire. ;-)
😁
Have you been back to MI to set up camping. (videos running 2 months behind)
No not this year. We are still in the Bahamas so haven’t been able to fly back
What app do you use on the iPad for navigation?
We use Navionics!
Note to self: next time I am building the framework for an engine include a reinforced plate for a jack to stand. ;-)
Yes it’s definitely a necessity
Sascha teenage Aphrodite and Nathalie teenage Amazon Warrior!
Thank you😁 but we are 24 and 25 haha not so teenage anymore! 😂
You guys need a sock for that asymmetric spinnaker or you let the tack go and pull in the sheet and slowly drop the halyardc and slowly pull the sail into the companion way.
Hmmm not sure if it would reach to our companionway but we decided that we wouldn’t use it while we are sailing alone and we have been doing that the past month😁
@@SailingTheFarSide Blow the tack first it takes the power out of the sail and you can pull it down into the cockpit easy no matter how big your boat is and keep it out of the water. Maybe watch some youtube videos on spinner drop ;) lol Also I noticed you had your spinnaker layed out on the deck all wet! If it went in the water it must be washed in fresh water or salt crystals will destroy it when it dries. Just my tips :)
You can also blow the halyard... let out a third or so of the line all at once, which will depower the top of the sail, then another third as you gather. You have to then be quick to gather it in the foot, but with a little practice you'll get the chute down fast. We would do that instead of blowing the tack, which turns the sail into a big flag to wrestle down.
@@kevinclark2642 yes we sure haven’t mastered the spinnaker but hopefully soon we will, thanks for the tip!😁
Try it in about 10 knots true so you can get the feel for it. Then you can do it in heavier air as you get better at it.
Dad is an excellent teacher ,but how many hours can you get on a set of engine mounts? i would have thought they would last for 30 years on a sailboat?
This is true but we had an oil leak that led to the deterioration of the rubber in the engine mount! So it would have lasted😁
04:28. Who’s that back there with mom?
13:00 Disregard… 😏
My friend from college was visiting!
The first thing that happens when you are turning wrenches......your nose will itch!!!!!
Lol True That
Haha yup! Happens every time 😋
Was Mom upset with you at 4:28
Hmm I don't think she was?

Wow! If I ever need a Mechanic, I know who to call. You look cute with grease on your nose..lol. Love Lobster.
