Ep. 23 Peplink come on board - Reliable mobile internet at the lowest cost no matter our location

PEPLINK
For me to be connected while being out sailing, Peplink is a must for me to keep my costs down. Yes it costs money to purchase Peplink's gear but it will save you many many times that by allowing you to connect cheaply to the internet via wifi or sim card before you actually need to engage starlink. It really is a no-brainer!
Check out PEPLINK here
www.peplink.com/
Check out the routers here
www.peplink.com/products/mobi...
Check out the special dome antennae that can keep you connected up to 70km off shore.
www.peplink.com/products/ente...
Yes I know they say on the website that it connects you up to 40km off shore but I spoke to Peplink's spokesperson and on recent tests it was keeping them connected up to 70km off shore. Now that is connectivity!
Thank you Peplink for coming on board for the Elcano World Challenge.

Good on you Peplink for sponsoring the boat build. Our prayers have been answered, Lisa being on the boat. You beauty!!!!

[@alexmorton7730]

Peplink's ability to keep you online in the most economical way is brilliant.

lISA ???? OMG, WHAT A GREAT SUPRISE :) will be so great to see her again , Lisa Rocks :)

Lisa will definitely be fun to see again!

[@michaelhicks3909]

Lisa is definitely an incentive to follow your vlog.

[@mikemiklaucic9414]

Lisa's Coming back, this is great news, I think it's safe to say we all love Lisa.❤

[@cossak.G.nederlander]

It’s amazing you are managing this by yourself boot-strapping from one let down to the next yet winning over all!

[@SAILINGintoFREEDOM]

And some help from you the viewers, the kickstarters, the paypallers and the engineers working gratis on helping me....so really about 127,000 of you

[@3AdamAnt]

Awesome progress! Will be great to see Lisa again!

[@earlashton1342]

Lisa coming back is bloody good news Peter.

[@sjk4263]

It's going to be incredible to see you finally back on the water with this beaut.

[@marklapierre5629]

It's interesting that, of all the crew you've had over the years, Lisa is the only one that people are still talking about. I love your videos Plukky. I really want to see you back on the water. It would be nice if Lisa was there with you too.

[@jkkj1406]

Whatever mate hahaha, I wanna see fedra again and Jax was my favourite..

[@azul29156]

I don't want to disparage any of the crew they were all great and I've gotten attached to numerous of them. It's just that there was some special chemistry with Lisa. I've tried ta figure it out but haven't succeeded.

As an avid follower of your channel, a boat owner ( Adams 45) and a Boilermaker by trade…the quality of their fabrication defines their professionalism. And thank God they are sensible enough to leave the guards on their 4” grinders!

Great to see Lisa again. Glad to hear she's coming aboard! Woot Woot Peplink! 🤗💞

Plukky you have just made my day hearing of Lisa's return I hope she is well and still likes pineapples

[@billyjames7735]

Made my week to hear Lisa is going to be back on the boat.

[@pemman]

Yes Plukky! The return, hopefully, of Lisa. 😊

[@markzimmerman9576]

Excited that Lisa is coming back. Such a perfect fit. Sweet, well-spoken, but gutsy when she needs to be. Great compliment as crew for the new catamaran.

[@jbird73]

Oh Lisa! I think I'll go back and rewatch some older videos. Can't not mention GiGi, oh how beautiful!

[@wayne2584]

Be good to see Lisa Back. She is my favorite.

[@hogroamer260]

Plucky, gives me such satisfaction to see you achieving your dream! I felt horrible since you lost Long Reef now, years later, you will soon have an even better cat! Such a great situation where you are able to be on the floor every day during construction. Something that would never be allowed in the U.S.! And your great supporters, 12% taking the extra second to click the like button. Other channels are lucky to get 3%. Everything's coming together!!!

[@SAILINGintoFREEDOM]

It is looking good Mr Roamer indeed. I am a lucky albeit tired happpy camper

[@hogroamer260]

@SAILINGintoFREEDOM You earned it, hang in there Plucky!

[@jonathanvince8173]

Mr Richard Duerk seams the right person at the right time older but trouble shoot and able to find out things that may go wrong plus fully qualified not sure about the Bikini idea though. Now need young men and women not afraid to learn and be able to now what to do and when including any emergency like another boat in real trouble knowing what to do to help in any emergency. No going overboard or Plucky will glue feet to the boat maybe?

[@victorvos2833]

Lisa is the saving of this video! Top stuff!

[@carlhokanson9160]

I can't wait to see you and Lisa Cave diving together., Lisa's aim was true!

Mate just tell me what I can do!? As far as I'm concerned Plucky is a legend in the sailing community.. what can I do to help?

Glad to hear Lisa will be back, but you had better have ample supplies of pineapples Plucky! And good on Peplink for being a sponsor.

Yay Plucky, We did wonder. Actually were somewhat worried. Looks like you have it covered. There are many out there with all the romantic crap about the life. It is good that you keep it real. They (won't mention the name) is copying your idea. Thats what happens when your a leader. Excellent

[@SAILINGintoFREEDOM]

Actually it is all luck and shenanigans

[@joemarquez4729]

I like that peeling is on board. Very interesting crew so far

[@maverickmyrtlebeach]

Those wedges and dogs work together for straightening walls and are temporary tacked on then hammered off.. His dog template has all angles up, down, in, out.. nicely done worker man..

[@NCMTNBOY]

It is coming along nicely. I can only imagine if you had tried to put it together yourself. They amount of work they have gotten done is amazing.

I have one vital ability that you do absolutely need and that is as ballast. 185 pounds of ballast that can move around on command to suit the need at a moments notice. Requirements in food and beverage and a comfortable bunk along with entertainment and one mermaid.

[@Corrvision]

Yeah it's getting done!! Lisa is coming back Awesome!

Yes some of the previous girl crews seem to be awesome. Especially, since they put up with the Pluckster.

[@californiakayaker]

Richard is very impressive, he's done a lot and has a lot of experience. If I were to do it, I'm very green in many areas. I'm a technologist in that I know radio and electronics. So, modern AIS and VHF cabling, and networking may be somewhat easy for me. I am a ham radio operator, vhf uhf hf and digital. I managed a satellite yard at a TV station. I've studied the hell out of modern sailing and own PV/LIPO systems. I make batteries, and like those best because I then know what is in them and can replace necessary components/ test the batteries and systems. But, I've only been on the water for short trips in Humboldt Bay and in the Pacific near there. I've tried to absorb as much about rigging/autopilots/shaft and proppellers/ steering / hull issues and zincs/ electric issues with motors / . From what I know of the Cell/Battery/Lipo issues world wide I'd think it would be best to completely secure all that equipment direct from the factories (China) and not try to export them . The times of shipping and those issues are terrible right now. They all come from asia but must be sourced directly (communication directly with factories) or there will be hang ups. Its a quickly changing market worldwide with , apparently, the sources in China.

Great news regarding Lisa returning!

[@ahazureus]

Peter, do some studies on, "Alum." Weld quality", I've noticed some "Flaws", "Anomalies", just looking at your videos, No.1) "Fillet-welds" cold-lap, not "tied-in" good. No.2) Putting a "Flat-weld" in a hull seam, then grinding most of it off? Does that weld have "Full Penetration" from both sides? 🤔

[@ArtHelm]

This is great, Plukky. It is real exciting seein the skin.going on the hulls. Now its possible to see the boat better,. Even half done I can imaging the boat's personality starting to form as well. Pease and love, Pal💙🤘 Pineapple storages? √
