Unstepping our TALL MAST with a TINY CRANE | Sailing Balachandra S02E37

We make our first attempt at un-stepping our 65' mast using a 40' crane in order to access the keel bolts underneath for maintenance in preparation for our 6 month voyage to the Exumas, Bahamas, and the Caribbean archipelago... AND...we got a new puppy!! Warmest welcome to Zeus, our newest crew member! Zeus is a Yorkshire Terrier. Yorkies are not only hypoallergenic, but they also DO NOT SHED which means NO issues with dog hair clogging up the bilge pumps which makes a happy captain :) We FINALLY got on board with PATREON!

In August of 2017 I sold everything and moved aboard Balachandra, a 1986 C&C44 sailboat, then sailed it over 300 nautical miles to Halifax Nova Scotia to spend a cold Canadian winter in the frozen waters of the North Atlantic. Sailing Balachandra is our YouTube sailing vlog inspired by other great channels such as Delos and La Vagabonde, which documents the sailing adventures of myself and the occasional crewmembers(s) as we navigate the east coast of North America and beyond. We also dive into lots of DIY boat projects both above and below decks, and share with you all of the pros and cons of living aboard in a cold climate. Sailing Balachandra is published weekly so please subscribe so you don't miss out on future videos!
