He's a good shipwright - a carpenter skilled in ship construction and repair -- though in terms of fiberglassing and working with plastic. I have no idea how good he is at wood carpentry. An engineer is someone who designs by calculation.

Some people don't watch closely. Events in video occurred ~Dec 23. Video posted Jan 18. They had 3 weeks to complete the last half of their 18 day journey. Starlink doesn't pay anyone for endorsements. That would be money out of Elon's pocket, and he needs it to go to MARS, or at least send people to MARS. One-Way. Detractors if possible.

I just did a 10 day pacific passage and installed Starlink on my friend’s boat so I could stay in touch for work. Total game changer… faster internet than I have at my house. We had 3 sat phones on board but never used them because Wi-Fi calling on our cell phones is better quality and easier. Friends also enjoyed FaceTime / Zoom calls to see where we were. Amazing!!

A word of caution regarding your rudder repair. In the 90s, I had a 46 foot sloop and had knocked the bottom 18 inches off the rudder twice. I contacted the naval architect who designed the boat, Herman Freres, for advice. He told me that the original design had a very robust rudder and on two occasions, early hull numbers hit something in the water and bent their rudder shafts. So beginning with hull #4, rudders were designed with a breakaway tip, so that in the event of a collision with some underwater object, the rudder shaft didn’t bend. When the rudder shaft bent, it caused interference with the hull and the boat could not be steered.

I had a friend who’s (brand new) 50’ Beneteau monohull sank after grounding its rudder. It punched the rudder upward and the bearing seal (which broke) was below the waterline with no bulkhead between it and the interior of the boat. The bilge pumps couldn’t keep up and although he ran it aground to try and save it, the boat was a write-off. He’d been cruising for a week. I believe Beneteau reengineered that part of the boat.

Perhaps you mean GERMAN Frerse? I just put a new rudder in our boat.. instead of a tubular stainless shaft (and they bend) we have a solid aluminium shaft and it is fifty percent stronger than the tubular stainless shafts are.. This is important because the new rudder is about eight inches deeper (narrower but deeper).. the boat is very robustly built on the rudder post tube re-enforcement internally.. sloops with single rudders have their rudders MUCH better protected than catamarans... Today many sloops put in dual rudders.. this is generally a very bad idea... they do it because they are so very wide in the transom today - also not a good idea... BTW - we did the internals in solid glass and epoxy all vacuum bagged so it is built like a rock.... Keith is correct.. foam core rudders are not structurally strong..

What I love is the fact they were becoming "bored", so the boat decided to lose at last 50% of one rudder and well the engine shakes rattles and rolls, you know - because they are rolling on the great big sea!

I would not make the rudder stronger Keith. Building boats and repairing boats has given me the knowledge of the fact you do not want the rudder shaft bending or breaking around the bushings, causing structural damage. I agree 100 percent on getting them both re-built as you dont know the exact cause of the rudder shearing off. Cheers! SV Antares II.

Question here. Could you do a video on your safety protocols. Why you do or don't wear life jackets, when would you?. Do you always trail a rope or two. Are there readily available life rings to throw. Do your nite crew members snap into a safety line when they move around the deck. Really just would like to hear you talk about man overboard, fire, hole in hull etc. Do you have go bags if you all have to leave the boat. Like if the boat is sinking do you cut your dingy loose and get your life raft in the water and do you practice. Is there a radio you could take on the life raft to call for help. This a great channel and i have been listening and watching for years. Keep it up.

I would like to understand the answers to these questions too. Maybe I just don't "know", but it seems a very casual environment - perhaps too much so. If someone loses their grip on that boat, it is extremely difficult to spot someone in the sea. By the time you slow and turn the boat around they could be lost forever.

Captain Keith, I like what you said about repairing systems on the boat and other places- "If it was running good before you worked on it- probably something you did caused it to not"- Brilliant but simple. I run an Electrical contracting service in Hawaii and specialize in hard to find problems. Process of elimination. Who did what? Detective analyzing the crime scene. If I don't fix it We ain't going nowhere. All eyes on me- But, like you, I know what to do. Aloha Captain

My late dad and I, as well as a few local farmers would take a couple fishing trips every year to Mexico near Guaymas Mexico. Work and life as well as age changed that. My dad taught me how to filet fish 50+ years ago. Instead of wig-wagging the knife while holding the skin, he’d hold the skin and wig-wag & slightly pulling it while holding the knife in one spot. We filleted a lot of bass that way too. Just thought I’d share that tip. Thank You, from New Mexico.

I live in St Petersburg, Fl. If I am ever lucky to have a chance encounter to meet the family! It would be a memorable moment in my life. I currently work on a 182 ft yacht out of Tampa as a marine crew...Deckhand. I'm working towards living on a catamaran with my man. I have followed you for a long time and have watched the kids grow up. Granted I had to watch past videos to catch up. I love your family. I watch other KZbin Sailers as well, but something about your family keeps me waiting for your next post. I am subscribed to both your children's KZbin channels and its always a pleasure to see what their prospective about their environment is. On another note, Welcome home! back to the US of getting all those food items you guys have missed. FYI, I do follow a few who have left your boat. Glory and Jadyn. Lovely girls. Love, Love, Love, you guys! You are all inspiration not only to go sailing, but to just get out and explore. rather by boat or train or flight. Just do it! Leshgo!

I'm from the UK and in 1999 I bought a nine year old ,42ft Catamaran in Florida and sailed it via the Azores to Portugal. I lost a rudder completely. It had snapped off flush with the underside of the hull. We saw nothing nor heard or felt anything. I realised something was wrong because, although the boat was steering alright the auto-pilot was doing overtime. When I got to the Azores where I had to pay my VAT as I brought the boat in to Europe. I swam under the boat and was somewhat taken aback to find no rudder on one side. The boat's beam was 24ft and there was no lift big enough to lift the boat from the water. My two friends and I pulled the broken remains from one hull and the complete rudder from the other. I had little choice but to fly back to the Uk with both rudders and have a new one made. Two weeks later we refitted them with much puffing and panting through our snorkels and were on our way again, three day out we hit a large whale, it lifted one hull, perhaps nine inches out of the water but we incurred no damage. I then sailed down the coast of Portugal, Spain and in to the Med. I lived on board for two years. A great adventure, marvellous fun, but I met a number of liveaboard yachties who had become water Gypsies, out of money and ideas. Not a good thing. I sold the boat in Spain, returned to the UK and returned to business. I wouldn't have missed it for the world. Good luck Keith and family, the experience will be with you for ever.

Looking forward to seeing the kids start to diagnose and repair some of the issues that arise. I know Jack has mentioned getting his own boat, and I’m confident that he can tackle 90% of what’s required. But that’s not the same as being the one making the tough decisions and knowing the consequences of making the wrong one. Keith makes it look easy. Finn and Kate still have a ways to go (from just watching this), but they both have the experience to do this.

Glad to see you are still able to move via both engines with the alternator bolt fixed. The fresh fish looked very tasty and making fish tacos sounded really tasty too. It's good to see that you found "WILSON" somewhere along your journey. The FedEx Castaway guy (I know Tom Hanks played that role, but I forgot his screen name) will be so relieved...LOL Be safe and enjoy the rest of your journey to get the rudder fixed.

Those Ullman Sails look great! That A-Sym looks great. I remember my grand father had a great one from North Sails on his Holiday. Was so great to cruise with it. Such an upgrade. Just discovered your channel and love it.

As always great video guys! Thanks for bringing us along. So i saw in one of your earlier videos where Keith mentions he sold a plane (and the house) to move out on the water. What kind of plane did you have Keith? Have you guys ever shared any flying videos from those days on you tube? Glad you guys made it across the big pond safely!!

I’d think twice about over strengthening the rudders as it may break something else in the steering linkage or even tear a hole in the hull if you had another strike or hit something.

I would watch your videos how ever long they were(love them that much). It was nice seeing Kate and the boys fileting fish. Also nice to see Kate dress like a girl and smiling almost like she s coming out of her shell. Love you all

First your multi hull is the prettiest, most comfortable and livable appearing boat! You might consider creating a video intro that introduces everyone. Also, I find it interesting to hear your talk through of the problems and fixes that necessarily come up as you are sailing.

Could I suggest that you use more of a fish when you have caught one? The skin is the most nutritional part of the fish with the highest level of omega. Fry the skin in a pan until crisp, you can "crumble it" on top of your other food or eat it as "crackling". The bones and head make delicious soup. Why not roast the whole fish or cook it on the BBQ wrapped in foil? There is so much more you could use from a fish than just the fillets (especially when it is freshly caught). 😊

Had a dream I was sailing the Atlantic with you guys. As we reached Newfoundland, we were all in awe of the huge icebergs - so majestic! Haha, stopped Jack from complaining about the cold.

Why is no one talking about how they're dangling off the back of the boat, without tethers, while underway. That's a long swim if anything goes wrong.

I hope you have made it to the Caribbean! Also getting the rudder fixed and the engine mount or whatever is the issue!
