Hi from 𝗛𝐈, we are PAT and FRANKIE! We are living full-time on our sailing boat 𝗛𝐈 and sail around the world in search of a new home⛵

Episode 36:
To understand the full extent of our sailboat’s damage, we’re taking it apart—inside and out. The next big step? Unstepping the mast, which is a huge risk on land. Our mast runs straight through the deck into the saloon, meaning a massive crane is needed to carefully lift it without compromising the boat’s stability on the stands.

Catch some raw emotions as we face this nerve-wracking process and see what live on board has been lately.

We apologize for having to blur so much in this episode to respect everyone’s privacy. Thank you for your understanding and for sticking with us on this journey! ♥️

Thanks for yet another informative episode on the ongoing repair. Very interesting for the viewer to see how it comes apart. I like the picnic on the subfloor. Keep them coming. You will get to the end, keep the chins up!

Happy to see that you made a lot of progress towards repairing your boat. Chances are that you will end up with an even stronger boat than what you had before this accident. Stay positive and I look forward to your next video.

I’m glad everything went well with the operation. Like many said previously, trusting the crane person and crew do their jobs while assisting if you can and preparing in the best possible way is the way to go. Take care of the mast and the technical parts on it now that it’s down and take pictures of everything to remember well once it goes back up. Thanks for sharing! Good luck for the next step🍻

ASMR tip - Let us see stuff like that mast lay down on the supports!!! It's funny how, as a viewer, you want to see things conclude. Keep your spirits up with this big project. Wow.

Phew that was nerve wracking to watch, glad it all went well. All the best for removing the keel. Have a good week. Cheers

Oh my goodness.. I was close to forget breathing watching the video. Fortunately it hasn't been to windy. The team did a good job and so the next step is done. 😅 And inbetween all this mess you have nerves to prepare lunch...You both are great!!!

Great that you are getting the boat ready for repair it. Good thing is that after the repair your boat will be stronger than new.

I have had my mast taken out every winter and I think your concern about flipping the boat is not something to be concerned about. When we take the mast away I usually am inside steering the mast out of the deck. When the mast is attached to the lift high you can easily move the mast from bottom of it. You can also take the backstay away and the lower shrouds the mast will not need them to keep it up - only when you have sails you ofcource need all the support. (I have a furling mast about 17 meters long about 150 - 180 kg.)

Now when you have your mast down it is good time to do maintenance to it etc. :). If you have rod rigging you need to be super careful with the rods not to bend them.

I'm guessing that it is quite possible that all this disassembly concludes with the determination that the boat is a total loss.

In Finland we lift our boats every autumn (because ice), and most take their mast off too. I would never ascend the mast with only one halyard.

Wuldn't it be cheaper for the insurance cimpany to just buy you a new boat?
You two are very calm and understanding during this arduous journey. I commend you for your demeanor during this situation.
God's blessings to you.

You both seem better now. Keep smiling!!! From Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

Seeing you working on the deck under a crane jib, without a safety hat surprises me. Not many boat yards would allow that. It should be part of your inventory to carry "Climbing Helmets" for each crew member. In storms they are most useful to avoid cut scalps and bruises too, on the head. Also essential when someone is up the mast working and another crew has to stand below for some reason.

Good luck with the keel removal. Cheers from Canada!

As the mast was being lifted i was thinking, please God don't let anything bad happen. At least now you can do a rigging inspection, and I would replace the anchor light bulb, lube the masthead sheaves and polish the mast. So far so good, let's see what happens with the keel.
