Salvaged sailboat rebuild: we admit we made a big mistake — Sailing Yabá 135

Bringing Yabá from wreck to dreamy! Episode 135
In this episode of our boat restoration, we address a big mistake we made regarding the roof of our superstructure. We wanted to keep it bare wood, but unfortunately, it wasn’t enough and we started having leaks inside.
We also work on our engine, by finishing our gearbox and saving our unsavable clutch disc!
We hope you enjoy watching it! Xx

💙 Who are we?
We are Ben and MP!
Recently we decided to purchase a two-masted wooden schooner in Brazil. The fun detail about our story is that the boat we bought was sinking and relying on many bilge pumps to survive so we had to lift it onto the dry to start a full refit. Once the boat was lifted (for the first time in her life) we realized that the work needed was much more than expected. Between bailing or accepting the challenge, we decided to go for the second option. Watch us as we bring Yabá back to life with the help of an amazing team of traditional shipwrights, sharing every phase of the process, overcoming the highs and lows and having fun along the way.
