And if so, you get used to your own mess and stink, no problem to him.
Hes an awesome person and has a very interesting boat.

A hip Joshua Slocum
Or am I forever to be known as a 'barn jobber?'
GREAT VID BTW
I Love his Determination to Make Things, I Saw Myself In Him
I would have liked to hear the engine, imagine it has a good sound.
Where's the freezer and fridge?! Solar cells? Batteries?
How do you store food? Like milk?
Just out of curiosity, is the "Pterodactyl based on Slocum's "Spray"
Best wishes
Enjoyed the story, the man and the boat.
Greetings from Norway.
WOW!!.....Haven't seen a concrete hull ship in about 50yrs.....saw some shrimpers back in the Florida Keys....I was in the Coast Guard then....stationed in Key West....
However shabby his place is....IT'S HIS OWN PLACE! He's making due with what he has & enjoying it. A lot of memories in building it over the years. It's finally finished & a pretty big deal to build your own boat. This man doesn't care about "keeping up with the Jones's", he's fascinating too.
Thank you Eddy - a great vid, and what a great philosophy on life.

The sea life made Pippi a really fun gal
May you have many blessings and with much inner peace. ✌
People with high stress life styles that have a breakdown should go spend a week hanging out and sailing with him.
Great video, thanks for posting. Where does he live?
