Moving Onboard...No Going Back Now! 🌊⛵

🚤 In This Episode:
In the last episode, I unexpectedly bought a 1989 Catalina 36 and moved onboard. This time, we dive into every nook and cranny of our new home, discovering mystery liquids, broken hoses, and a whole lot of things to add to the never-ending boat “to-do list.” Plus, we go sailing in Banderas Bay with our dock neighbors and friends for the first time! 🌊

🏝️ Highlights:

Unpacking & Organizing: Moving aboard with minimal household goods and luggage was overwhelming. We had to tame the chaos by inventorying every locker and crawlspace.
Dad’s Handwritten Notebooks: Luckily, my Dad meticulously documented every locker’s inventory, helping us navigate the overwhelming task.
Mystery Liquid Discovery: Petra found a pool of engine coolant in a nearly inaccessible locker, leading to a surprising fix.
Broken Bilge Pump Hose: Petra’s keen eye saved us from potential disaster by spotting a crack in the manual bilge pump hose.
Sailing Adventure: Our dock neighbor invited us to test out his new sails on Banderas Bay, giving us a refreshing break from boat projects.
⚓ Newbie Cruisers in Mexico: Join us as we learn the ropes of living and working onboard, making the most of our new life in Mexico.

💼 From Unpacking to #Sailing:
Though moving aboard was overwhelming, we embraced the challenge. With Dad’s detailed notes, we organized the boat and discovered hidden problems. A pool of engine coolant and a broken bilge pump hose were just a few surprises we tackled. Sailing in Banderas Bay was the perfect break we needed before diving back into projects.
