I make videos about restoring cheap boats, sailing them in proper breeze and proving that great sailing doesn’t have to cost a fortune. My goal is simple: I want you to watch a video and think, “I could actually do that,” not “I’d need to win the lottery first.” Most of the boats on this channel come from Facebook Marketplace and get rebuilt using affordable parts, plenty of 3D printing, and whatever I can find at Bunnings or on Amazon. Some projects work alright, some don’t, but you’ll see it either way. We also still do a fair bit of racing on my old 18 Foot Skiff and other boats too. Expect a mix of boat restoration, dinghy sailing, small boat cruising, foiling, racing, DIY modifications, sailing gear, and plenty of lessons learned the hard way. Whether I’m rebuilding an old cruising dinghy, sailing an 18ft Skiff, foiling on my old Moth, or sailing to a nearby takeaway, the aim is always the same: make sailing more accessible, more affordable, and a lot more fun.
