Hi guys!

In this video, I take a few cautious steps in the journey of 3D printing on a boat. Right now, I'm sticking to PLA filament, so I'm a little limited in what I can print (UV resistance and strength). We have some PETG and PLA+ aboard, too, but that will have to wait a bit - it's still fun to get started! We also go for a hike and pick up an extra inverter/charger to kill two birds with one blue box (shore power and 120V power aboard). 

In real-time news, we arrived in Martinique yesterday. I know this is a little on the nose, but our first stop was to pick up a baguette, cheese, and ham. When in Rome ;) That's one of the things we loved about mainland France. It's a cheap, simple, yet delicious meal. We're planning on staying here in Le Marin for around a week. The mooring balls here are cheap (around USD 80 per week). Here are chandleries and groceries nearby. We have also booked a rental car to see some of the island and pick up a new Yamaha outboard next week. Although getting a two-stroke outboard proved to be a little bit more complicated than first assumed :) More about that in an upcoming video ;) 

I hope you're having a fantastic weekend :) Thank you so much for your support!
