Anchor Locker Creation

One of the design flaws of the CS27 is that the anchor locker drains down under the v-berth, and that area isn’t connected to the bilge. The result is that any rainwater that gets in the locker, and all the water that drips off the anchor rode just sits under the v-berth, and has nowhere […]

Painting and trim refinishing

Not only do we often tackle bigger projects than we probably should, we also have a habit of adding to a project as it progresses. While we had the panels off for the electrical re-wiring, Lindsay decided that “we might as well” take the opportunity to paint the walls and refinish the trim. The State of […]

Rewiring the Boat

So. Boat wiring. Why would brand-spankin’ new boat owners without an ounce of experience decide to tackle boat wiring? Well, we’ll tell you: because we’re both first-born, A-type, compulsive, control freaks. And the one thing that drives us both nuts is chaos, especially when its hidden behind salon cushions and under cock-pit lockers. State of […]

Keel Repairs

When we purchased Blue Nun, she came with a handy in-depth survey. It listed all the maintenance projects we should undertake and prioritized their urgency. One of the more intimidating items was an apparent and rusty crack in the back of the keel. Despite Les’ handyman abilities and Lindsay’s irritatingly sanguine, “how hard can it […]

When you don’t have room for all the kids, suspend one from the ceiling

While the CS27 technically sleeps 5, our kids don’t share beds well, and the double berth in the saloon is small to begin with. The first few nights aboard were spend with 1 of the kids on a camping mattress between the settees. Michal didn’t like sleeping on the floor, since someone was always walking […]

Cockpit Table

Cockpit tables are a wonderful addition to a boat. We love having a spot to eat, out in the fresh air. And when we have more people on the boat, the kids can eat in the saloon, while the adults munch above. Unfortunately Blue Nun didn’t have a cockpit table when we purchased her, but […]

Cockpit Locker Organization

One of the things we like about a boat is having it organized and making good use of the space that is available (more than you would expect). However, some of the locations require some creative problem solving. The cockpit lockers are one such space, as they are awkwardly shaped, and can easily become a […]
