Shaun & Julia Sailing

We set off on a 1,000 mile road trip to Charleston, South Carolina, where we are reunited with our Tartan 37 sailboat Nemea! We make a quick stop in Annapolis, Maryland on the way to sightsee!

We open up Nemea after months of storage on the hard and assess the damage!

We tackle the fun job of replacing and re-bedding portals/portholes on our Tartan 37 sailboat, Nemea.

Leaks, leaks, and more leaks. Boat ownership is the constant struggle of plugging leaks!

Work, work, work. The work on the boat never ends! We continue hacking away at the portlights, and start devising a repair for our damaged toe rail.

We make an attempt at repairing a broken piece of teak framing, seal a leak in our companionway, and polish up our Tartan 37 emblem!

We continue our woodwork repair by attempting to color match epoxy to teak using sawdust.

We clean and address some needed repairs on our dinghy, test our portlights and hatches for leaks, and replace the charcoal filter in our boat plumbing system.

We make the mistake of washing the boat on the coldest day yet. After washing the dirt off, we discover a world of rust and black stains on deck and discover a great product for removing them!

We dive deep into the anchor locker to investigate a hole we found on deck!

The age-old tale of a simple job on a boat turning into the most frustrating job imaginable!

We check out our battery bank, top up the fluids and deal with some leaks on our boat!

We crack into the Gelcoat repairs! How to repair hull void blisters, cracks, and crazing on a boat deck!

We patch up the dinghy and do some more gelcoat repair on our Tartan 37 sailboat.

We re-caulk our chainplates and do some repairs on our dinghy. Let's get sailing again baby!

We solve one slip hazard and create another aboard our Tartan 37 sailboat!

We polish some shaft and get a little screwed in this week's episode!

We conquer the world's tightest screw and celebrate with some beers!

We make some headway on our traveler fix and enjoy the worlds biggest pizza!
