I appreciate your ability to own your choices and not gloss over them. It is so helpful as I pepare my own boat.

These videos are very well done. <br>I couldn't help but wonder if the Atalante you mentioned at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8ASMwYzy1c&t=133">2:13</a> is the same boat bought by Garrett's Adventure a couple of months ago.

Looks like one good piece of advice is to have spares for almost everything. 😊

There are a few warnings in there for me. I have to service my stuffing box though I have a 200 Lpm backup bilge pump, one. And two my forward baby trays have tension cracked the side of the deck house so I have to grind out that area and rebuild it. Before adventuring any distance. I have new rigging so that is not an immediate problem, though I think it wise to have sufficient dynema for backup rigging. Thanks again for the rundown.

When I bought my first sailboat in 1989 . A 20 year old Sparkman stevens. The surveyor explained. Replace rigging and chainplates every 10 years in the tropics.. I do. But 1 year I let it go to almost 11 and sure enough the bow sprit dolphin strike failed in 30 knots. Would have lost the mast if not for a brand new bow sprit and a custom attachment holding it and the staysail shroud.
