This will be a short post but it is to mark the end of a chapter for my wife and I. Pathfinder has been sold. We will miss the lifestyle, our friends at the marinas, and all the adventures we shared. We’ll come back to visit naturally though. We’re very happy with who has bought […]

Boat

We’ve had a great 7 years on the boat but due to some life circumstances we have to move on.   As such here is a link to the advertisement: Kijiji Ad

An actual floor! That is somewhat finished.

So we decided to tile the floor near the main entrance of our boat on the inside. There were 2 main reasons for this. To not damage the plywood anymore with salt and winter boots etc. To practice tiling. The first part is just as a matter of preventative maintenance which is good. The second […]

Posted from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Our move is complete. But naturally… since it’s me… Things didn’t go exactly uhhh… normal? The plan was this. The night before I’d fire up the engines, then they day of my parents and aunt would come on over along with Mitch and we’d just toddle on over. Done. So […]

Yes this blog is still active. We just had a bit of a bumpy summer making it rather difficult to find the will to write. I won’t touch on that right now so I’ll just move on. The top of the pilot house has been an eyesore since we got Pathfinder nearly 6 years ago. […]

Ye old blog was sadly neglected over this past winter. Like in my previous post I did mention that there were a few reasons for this such as my never ending migraines, new work responsibilities, also there was a few things that cropped up that slowed down what work could be done. Jeannie is diligently […]

Posted from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. This winter finally has come to a close just in time for more snow coming this coming Thursday apparently. Over this time I have not been idle but not a lot has been going on for the boat itself. I’ll have a post talking about some of the fun we […]

This is just a small post to show a nice little thing I did to help keep the boat warm. In our galley we have 2 doors that aren’t particularly well insulated or even draft tight. So usually what you can do to at least stop drafts is jam any gaps full of insulating foam […]

Posted from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Not to get cheesy or really pat myself on the back for this but our departure from TIM and off to Pier 4 was incredibly smooth. How smooth? Ya. So this time was literally the first time I had taken Pathfinder from dock to dock under any situation. The engines […]

Posted from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. So as seems to be my habit lately this post is VERY late. And I’ve actually written this one before part 2… There are a few reasons for that some of which is to attempt to word it correctly as it goes over what happened at St. Catharines. Although in […]
