Spent the day at Staniel. Then sailed to Iguana Beach. @zipper you’d be proud. I tacked through the cut and sailed right to anchorage. We rented tanks at Staniel and dove the Thunderball grotto. The sailing has been tough with winds out of the South.View attachment 221630View attachment 221631View attachment 221632View attachment 221633

Nice tacks, awesome time. Nice rig...Fair winds.

This is the first Pavati boat I’ve seen in “the wild”, well on a trailer anyway. It looks like a nice boat but I didn’t ask for a price as I’m not in the market.

Of all the places, my little podunk town had someone trailering with one. I didn't know what it was at the time, but when I went online to check it out, I was stunned to see the pricing.

We also had a Lamborghini boat of some sort being trailered, but the thing that I was fascinated with about that setup, being a truck driver, was the trailer! It had to be transported on its side due to width, and the rear wheel carriage that caught my eye operates independently via some sort of control cable, or wireless, couldn't tell.

28 days until the new footing hatches! Swapping out the car jack hopefully this weekend, but I have to drink myself into bravery, it's a bit too claustrophobic for me. If I can't, it's gonna wait for one more week until I have a braver volunteer to swap it out for another bottle jack.

Fingers crossed I don't show up this weekend to find half the boathouse has slid into the ground and the creek.

Under the crane. Stepping the mast this morning.

I haven't been on here much the past few months because life got crazy. I'm in Colombia again and my 2 friends came to visit us. We rented scooters and went to the waterfall. Their scooter didn't have power to go up with the mountain with them both. So he got off and showed her how to go up the mountain and he continued walking.. I see his gf coming up "you know how to ride a bike? you're doing great!" "yes!" and then she drops it lol we had some good laughs

 

[tabbibus]

yeah man, i've missed your colombian adventures. how's the mtb?

Everything is for sale. After a back injury in 2019, jet skiing, mountain biking, gym, boat, etc. my back is shot. They did an injection when I was in Florida but it still hurts sometimes. It's pretty messed up so I want to chill out for a few years. Also looking to scale down and see if I can start a business here in Medellin and buy property somewhere. I see some nice new projects in Poblado for like $120k studio. but hoping the exchange improves.. And in the future get into a fast car. Been looking at M240i again, i'm crazy, but I could trade my 118i easily..

Couple hundred pounds, rigged with halyards, wiring and instruments.

Nabbed this Mahi while trolling across open water to our destination

It cooled down to 91 today but the pool heated up from 93 this morning anyway.

That's not a pool it's a large hottub. We keep our pool at 85 degrees anything over that and it's not refreshing anymore. I made an aerator chiller that I run at night to lower the temp if it goes over that. Cost probably 50 bucks to make

I agree with you, our spa is set to 102, but my wife likes it hot so I keep it hot by leaving the cover on and not running the running the fountain/ aerator. Stil, I may try to cool it down by not running the filter/solar heater as much during the day. Or just run it at night instead during the day. Funny, last year the water didn’t get this hot until August.

Saw this while bike riding this morning. I like it and am thinking about stealing it. Just kidding, about stealing it.
