It was a (very) long 5 months but we completed the LAST piece of our external boat refit by installing our new bulwark design, inspired by Lyle Hess Bristol Channel Cutter's. It was a lot of work, but so worth it in the end. In this video we share how the bulwarks were installed with custom made bases, how we put a scarf joint in the Cumaru wood, and tied it all together at the end. Thank you all for your support during this process! YOU helped keep us motivated to finish projects and get back out there to go sailing again!

Sailing Avocet | FINISHING Our Boat Projects! (For Now 😉)

After many hours of sweat, a few hundred drops of blood, and some tears, Avocet was finally returning to the water after her long boatyard stay, 53 days later. In this video, we wrap up painting by incorporating an unexpected galley item as well as discuss the differences between a feathering prop and a fixed blade as we share one of our recent hardware upgrades. Despite Avocet being afloat again, there is still much more work to do. Fair winds! Edit :In addition to donating our YouTube earnings to the #CreekFire victims, we will be keeping a running linktree of the GoFundMe's for the families in need. Please check out the list so far, help if you can, and share if you can't 💕 https://linktr.ee/SailingAvocet Just a reminder: you can help raise money for the fire victims by watching our youtube videos.

In this video you will see the crew of Avocet combat difficult weather issues, deal with delays caused by COVID, and overcome mental challenges presented by the situations at hand. From sanding the hull to FINALLY painting the topsides, we finally saw a light at the end of the tunnel. Hard work, blood, sweat, and MANY tears paid off. Enjoy the video!

Sailing Avocet | FINALLY Painting Our Sailboat!

We have been waiting for our haul out since day one of ownership so when the time came we felt ready. However, we did not plan for a pandemic or poor weather to hit in the middle of our projects, delaying our progress. Spending lockdown in the boatyard definitely set the mood for a dystopian society film, but despite the curve balls we continued our hard work and began to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Enjoy part 1 of our haul out series! ______________ NEW! Avocet Swag: https://teespring.com/stores/sailingavocet -------------------------------------------- Follow us on social media!

One of the many beauties of living on a sailboat is that you can literally sail your home anywhere, even if it his just to the next harbor over to get a change of scenery without ever truly having to "leave home"! Another beauty of this lifestyle, is getting the chance to share it with others which is why we were so excited to host Megan, one of Marissa's very best friends, for her first sailing experience. ______________ Follow us on social media!

A few months back, Chris's brother Jon turned 30 so of course, we all flew out to Annapolis to celebrate! We had not seen Prism since we were in Costa Rica in 2016, which is also when Chris asked me to marry him. Since then they had cruised through the Panama Canal and over to the warmer parts of the word eventually ending up on the East Coast where they started a long year of non-stop boat projects. The hard work definitely paid off because Prism looked like a brand new boat and we were so proud of the crew. Enjoy! ______________ Follow us on social media!
