Back in DIY mode :) (Patreon)

Hi guys! 

So far, we seem to have been spared stuff breaking. We have had little setbacks like our outhaul for the main, but that's about it. This is what has broken during our first year (in no particular order):

• Fuel pump, genny (my fault)
• Accumulator tank (product failure)
• Leaky chainplate, aft lower port side (I'm guessing too little butyl)
• Wobbly table (loose fasteners)
• Smelly water tank (I should run the watermaker longer before diverting to the tank)
• Main outhaul (operator error)

I might have forgotten something, but I think that about sums it up. Not too bad for one entire year! Of cuorse, everything is still very new. I'm sure the failure rate will skyrocket over the next year, especially as we start putting miles under the keel (currently, we have only sailed 1600 nautical miles since leaving Denmark).

Today is supposed to be overcast. I better take advantage of that and get busy painting the doors :)

I hope you're going to have a fantastic weekend :) Thank you so much for your support! Stay safe :)
