A log of living afloat

Heat wave! Oi! Oi!
Heat wave! Oi! Oi!
March 8, 2011 Boat, Fixed, NewsAgain I have failed in updating my blog in a timely manor. Saying that I’ve been busy is kinda redundant at this point, regardless though here’s the much awaited update including more pictures including a few of the interior! In case people are missing the title reference here’s the YouTube from “A Muppet Christmas Carol” […]
Josh vs The Webastard
Josh vs The Webastard
February 15, 2011 Boat, Fixed, NewsWow. So it’s been a month since my last update. Huh. I wonder how that happened… Whoops. Anyways I’ve been very busy lately which is 1 reason for the lack of posts. I’ll get some photos up once I have sorted out the heating system aka the Webastard. So the way the ship will be […]
Hard afloat!
Hard afloat!
January 20, 2011 Boat, FixedDuring the summer season we were hard aground for several weeks and even when we left port we had to essentially throttle the ship way up to pull ourselves off the mud. Aside from that the way we knew we were hard aground was the fact that the ship wasn’t moving at all when we […]
Winter is here to stay
Winter is here to stay
January 10, 2011 Boat, Fixed, News1 thing that is a bit of a bummer and bonus about living in Toronto and global warming is that winter doesn’t really start until mid January now. This sucks because frankly I like snow. Snow makes things nice and white (Toronto looks clean while its snowing for instance!), it also has a sound dampening […]
Still here in body only
Still here in body only
December 30, 2010 Fixed, NewsIt’s been a rather busy few weeks which is why there hasn’t been any updates to ye olde blog. I should be uploading some interior photos of the boat along with some info on where things are and how things are going. A quick version right now is that we’ve got all the parts to […]
Groove Shark
Groove Shark
December 20, 2010 Fixed, MediaOk. Just a quick post on this site. IF you like music, or better yet, streaming audio websites this is by FAR the best one I’ve found out there. I mean seriously. USE this music application if you haven’t already or “install” it as a Chrome Web App. It’s free and it’s like iTunes but […]
Hooks in a public shower
Hooks in a public shower
December 3, 2010 Fixed, UncategorizedOk. So this is going to be a pedantic point but I’ve come to the conclusion that there is an opitmal number of hooks for a single person to have in a public shower. Currently I’m using the marina shower and bathroom facilities for my daily ablutions. These are locked off from the public so […]
Holy crap… It’s December!
Holy crap… It’s December!
December 1, 2010 Boat, Fixed, UncategorizedWho’s done all their Christmas shopping raise their hands… … … Good I’m not the only one that hasn’t done it yet either. WHEW! I, like many in my family (read all), find it incredibly difficult to get into the Christmas “mood” when there isn’t any snow around. While my parents house has certainly had […]
The sea’s were getting rough, the little ship was tossed…
The sea’s were getting rough, the little ship was tossed…
November 25, 2010 Boat, Fixed, NewsNo we didn’t go for a 3 hour tour recently in the boat but with the weather as it is currently the marina we’re in is more akin to a washing machine than a calm harbor. Basically whenever the winds kick up the waves out in the lake (especially if the wind is coming from […]
Roughing it in TO
Roughing it in TO
November 6, 2010 Boat, Captains Log, FixedJeannie and I have just completed some work on the Pathfinder at Pier 4 (more or less). Things have been going rather well even if the ship isn’t 100% complete. We now have most of the equipment ready to be installed but we’re still working on wood work. Today I hope to get the galley […]
