We’re adjusting to life onboard our new to us custom alumunium sailboat unloading and cleaning her up to make her our home. We install AGM batteries, repair leaking portlights, learn the plumbing and water system on the boat, reconfigure the fresh and saltwater flush in the head, repair a leaking water tank, and discover plenty of valuable sailing equipment on the boat such as various sheets, halyards, sails and a pulley system to climb up and down the mast.

  • Travis & Steph, I am so excited for what’s to come. I can still recall your early videos when you crossed the Canadian / US border during COVID lockdown. Back then you claimed to be sailing newbies. I always love the way Travis explains his DIY projects. Perhaps it’s time for Travis to publish his own ebook!
  • @paulstephens5229
    I’ve just discovered your channel, I think I’m going to hang around for a while, I particularly like both of you narrations, and the clear filming, not forgetting to mention your intelligent understandable and relevant content. 👍😎👍
  • @davidnichols147
    Steph & Travis: Love the interior, nice to have a saltwater flush.
  • @chrissterba501
    What a sweet boat! Definitely got such a great foundation to start with. I love to watch and listen to your objective comments on the layout and setup (helps me for the future). It is also super fun to see all the goodies you two are finding within the boat along the way (almost like Christmas throughout the summer) :-) Can't wait to see her hauled out next week and get even more insight as to this build. Wish you two the best!
  • @HopeOfJoe
    OMG 😱, JibSea II crew‼️ Sooooo exciting to see all the goodies and the quick repairs you found. Excites me for what we may find as we move forward with our mission project new-to-us boat. Travis is sooooo talented in manufacturing new boat parts and the new water tank view ports are just an example. B. R. A. V. O. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 See you next time. ✨🌊💨⛵️🏝️👙🌞✨
  • @Daveincc
    The boat keeps getting better ! That front locker was like Christmas in July !
  • @svZia-Switch51
    Fun times! You guys are making short work of all the boat projects and Travis looks happier than a pig in mud! SV Zia
  • @scottgordon1781
    Very cool , a few stains will not slow you down :-) All so interesting , thanks .
  • @buckshots4800
    This is going to be fun to watch. Especially how you guys make your kitchen more functional to your liking. I bet y'all prefer the cooler climates than the tropical climates. I wonder if it is as difficult and expensive to heat the boat as it is to cool it. You guys are great. Keep the videos coming.
  • @MrFroglips69
    Super groovy episode. Once again let me just say how exciting it is to see that you have a new sailboat, and that it looks grand. It looks like it is going to be able to take you guys safely around the world. Nice to see you guys are already fixing the little problems your sailboat has, with what looks like with ease. Again congrats.
  • Thanks Travis & Steph. I'm really liking Jibsea2 more now. You surely got a lot of great gear nsail, lines ect that came with the boat. Looking forward to next week and the first sail.
  • @tonca124
    Great ideas for the galley. Certainly not much bench space atm. Love those pull out drawer fridge/freezers. Lots of time and work learning what you have purchased.
  • @seanhanlon5867
    Thats a great boat, loads of potential for an industrious couple like yourselves 👊🏻💪🏻😘
  • Love this boat , so happy you're moving forward that's life ! That improved water cap has uour name all over it😂
  • @corujariousa
    Good luck with the new boat. Nice to have the water and fuel tanks that allow for long trips. Suggestion: If you don't have yet a double-filter system for both water and fuel, consider the upgrade.
  • @miketcq8
    Awesome guys, well done on your new top you boat. I love to see how you both have grown into the sailing world. I bet you've inspired many would be sailors to follow the course. Well done and keep up the great channel.
