Sailing Vagabond Epicurean
We are a retired couple that have left the corporate world behind. We now live, travel and work part-time on our 1975 30ft Islander Bahamas sailboat. Over the past several years we have completed many up-grades and are learning to sail on the Chesapeake Bay.
We are now ready, or we think we are ready to start exploring the ICW south, the Bahamas, Caribbean and perhaps more.
All about sailing lifestyle, cruising, sailing, DIY projects, fixing up your boat, adventure, fun in the sun, marina hopping waterfront destinations.

My boat engine maintenance cost
Over the past several years I have had to do some engine maintenance. When you amortize the cost over the 9 plus years, I have had this boat the cost is not bad.

Try spraying the the fitting on the heater liquid wrench and let soak. I couldn’t tell from your description if it is possible to strike the fitting with a couple of sharp blows when you try to turn turn it with the the wrench. Be patient and repeat the liquid wrench trying to loosen and maybe tighten a little just to get some sort of movement.
thanks i will the liquid wrench, It is difficult to get the hammer or other tool on there, I may have to remove the cage that is around the shift and throttle cables
The closed caption can't even pick up the words ...can't read the video either 😂
I am sorry for this. It is working on my computer and tablet. I have heard of this issue from other RUclipsrs. Please try it again in an hour or so, is what i have been told. Also here is some other advice I was having that problem where I lost sound on part or all of videos that used to have sound and I just stumbled on this and it seemed to fix the problem. This is for Windows 11, so I’m not sure how to get to it on other operating systems, but if you are using Windows 11 right click on the sound icon in the task bar, click sound settings, and click the button where it says Mono Audio to the On position. Hope this helps
Can you post this again I want to see this
i did not do a video in this, but i should have ☹, thanks this gave me an idea though, i can still go back and walk through the process 😃🍷
@@VagabondEpicurean I learn allot from you and I was interested in the maintenance video but the sound was so bad I couldn't hear a word
@@captvaghunter i will check thanks, it was good when i reviewed it before posting thanks for letting me know
The sound is phuked bub
Hey neighbor! I grew up in Deale and now live in Friendship.
Hello, Would it be alright to cross the bay from Chesapeake Beach to Cambridge in a 13 ft Boston Whaler?
depends on the weather, i know a person who travels all around the bay in Whaler, not sure of the size but i know its around that 13ft mark. Be safe, have fun and thanks for watching
Kewl!
We are so happy to hear you enjoy using Spartan! The bottom looks great with the fresh coat! Fair winds!
I'd love to know how you made the homemade prosciutto
it takes around 10 to 12 mounts, there are some good videos on the process, I use a pork but instead of a fresh ham, thanks for watching
What do you mean by tipping?
you roll the pain on and then LIGHLY go over it with the tip of the paint brush, use a high quality paint brush thnaks for watchihg
You can get the paper charts for free. I'll look up the URL link if you'd like. Are you still in Tolchester? Met you a few years back when you were at the Emporium.
thanks, we are in Hampton, VA but hope to come to Rock Hall this summer
Damn that sucks
Ain’t dat da truth
That's for sure.
Watch those mast attachments. I was on a new boat and the spinnaker sheets jumping around yanked the mast light right off. (And sure spinnaker or kite.. shouldn't do that, but there's a learning curve. ) And none of those operational steps are self explanatory. Definitely a cheat sheet is needed.
thanks and thanks for watching ⛵
What size pipe is this?
1 1/2 inch, thanks for watching, this is speed rail for hand rails
A fine addition. It would let you spend the night in a snow storm and be able to come out without snow getting into the cabin
thanks for watching, happy and safe sailing
Nice informative. Idea. Thanks greatly! New to boating and information is always helpful.
thanks you for watching, welcome to boating this is going to be FUN!🎉
nice, happy for you!
thanks⚓⛵
Those some huge crabs
Or you can buy a climbers descendeur for a fraction of the price and made from a more reliable material.
true, thank you for watching
I know I might not get a response since this is an old video and you might not know the name of the music anymore but what's the name of the music playing during the intro of the video I'm just curious because it sounds interesting.
thanks for watching, i dont know the name od the music, i use free sound tracks available through RUclips
I would not have parboiled any veggies way to cooked for oriental salad.
thanks for watching. true the veggies don't have to be parboiled it is just how my wife and i like them. 😊
I’ve always found your videos regarding cooking to be a favorite of all the videos you produce. Hope you will post more of these over the summer.
It’s so interesting to know you are living and fishing on Top of Meteor crater that is 53 miles in diameter. The meteor hit 35 million yrs. Very close to Cape Charles. The diameter reaches across the Chesapeake Bay toward Hampton. If you look at a map of the mouth of the James River near Hampton you can see where the River turns upwards slightly before it enters the Bay. That is a ridge of the crater.
thanks for the info ☺
Awesome info!!
Too much talk
I wish channel 16 had a repeater on it so that I could listen to everything on it
that air filter is missing the foam
it never had a foam filter, i was wondering about that, Thanks 😯
Kool
your intro has sound, but the rest is silent
on no, thanks, you may need to turn the volume up
you may need to increase the volume, mine is ok but low, thanks again
The volume worked fine through the whole video for me
@@lindseylichtmanthanks ✔🍷
P r o m o S M
Really great information thx
thanks and thanks for watching
Bought a rod rigged boat about 2 years ago and this was extremely helpful, thank you!
It was the same up here on the Rhode River on Saturday. The water line was higher up on the dock than we'd ever seen it.
Look at Portsmouth Boating Center for the bottom work.
thanks, i will contact them
I loved this Dom. More videos of you sitting on your boat with cigar and scotch but telling stories. Those types of videos would be massive in my humble opinion. I could listen to you for hours and hours. Tell us about your motor boat you used to have. Your adventures thru the Great Lake locks etc etc. please!!!!
You confirmed alot for me with this episode.i have 300 AH battery capacity, 820 W solar ,400W wind generator, and it seems like a comparable draw . Hell it's a Pearson p30 I think our boats are very similar, with the exception of the Captain's experience . Your show feels like it's tailored to me every time
thanks for watching 🍷🍻
I recently added a lithium 200ah house bank and changed out my Xantrex 1000 inverter/charger pass through to a stand alone Xantrex 1800w with pass through. I wanted a separate charger for my starting battery and house bank. It is a bit of confusion and if your not comfortable with AC stuff hire a consultant. You could just add a stand alone inverter and have a shut off breaker and only turn on when your off shore power. You never want to have inverter on with shore power unless you have a pass through switch.
thanks for tine info. I like the idea of the shut off breaker and have thought about that. Also hiring a consultant is a good idea, I dont want to burn down the boat!🔥🎆
Thank you
Dandy Haven Marina in Fox Hill area is a great place to get or DYI work done
last year when i checked with them they wanted a $3,000 deposit because my boat is old, 1975. and that was for a short haul, just out, clean the bottom and back in. I have never had that happen, i no thanks 🥹But thanks for thinking of me 😊🍸
@@VagabondEpicurean that is not the experience that i had So sorry that is what you received. My boat is a 1976 vintage Try again, Andy is a good guy and have been fair.
can you say the size of the potable water connection threads (1/2 or 3/4" npt) that are cut into the bungs on the watertank? thx.
i think they are 1/2", thanks for watching
Keep em coming I love videos that skip all the bullshit. You are pretty much producing a study guide for sailors
thanks, and thanks for watching
Great video bud
thanks for watching ☺🍸
You stuck around fir all the snow and ice?
lol sort of we are in Hampton VA, not to bad here ❄
I see this is a pretty old video, I'm wondering if you have any information on how to set this radio up to be used with Nima 2000 or see talk Ng
thanks for watching, sorry i don't have the NIMA 2000 info, but it should be close
ON THE STARTER TRY A ONE SIZE LARGER WIRE ON THE FEED SIDE. HAD THE SAME PROBLEM ON MY ATOMIC 4 ENGINE. WENT FROM 16 GA. TO 14 GA. HOT WIRE. PROBLEM SOLVED.
thanks i will try that ⚓
JUST TO CLARIFY THE WIRE I MEAN IS FROM IGNITION TO SELONOID
@@donaldlynam9352 👍 thanks that what is was thinking
You ADDED this as a sub panel off of your main DC PANEL did you use over current protection for this subpanel? What size fuse is on your main dc panel?
I will look next time i am at the boat for the breaker size i used, Thanks for watching
What did you do for a shower?
use the marina showers or wash up in the head sink 🚿⚓ when at anchor
@@VagabondEpicurean ouch I wonder what kind of unit I could get to replace the sprayer in my wet head. Like a wall mounted heater and sprayer. I'm going to look around
Sometimes I wish I had doors, but with the extra wide companionway on my boat, having one or two hatchboards in helps control swamping type situations.
