Our engine room has gone form a Oily Greasy mess to a shiny bright white! https://www.sailingnandji.com In this episode of Sailing Nandji, Nandji is high and dry in the boat yard. With a looong list of jobs we plan to complete whilst on the hard stand, we are busy in renovating our engine room ready to install our new Yanmar "Fang." We have been lucky to have a fellow Salty sailor wish to help us install the new engine, Uncle Kevin is also a guru fibreglasser after glassing surfboards professionally for over 30 years. This man knows a thing or two about fibreglassing and he takes us through the types of matting we use to reinforce the bearers ready for the new engine mounts to bolt on too. After two weeks on the hard stand our engine room has gone form a oily greasy mess from our old engine to a glistening white solid room ready for our new motor! We are a young couple with a dog, who with no sailing experience, bought a yacht, got it blue water cruising ready and set off sailing around the Pacific! We have just sailed 2000nm through Indonesia and have arrived to Malaysia to complete major boat work, ready for the next big adventure. We departed Australia 18 months ago and have since explored some amazing countries, met some beautiful people and experienced different cultures, dived pristine reefs, surfed solo in the middle of nowhere, spent weeks at sea, dealt with storms, big waves, strong winds and had the time of our life doing it! The adventure is just beginning as we sail West with the trades! SUBSCRIBE TO OUR CHANNEL. https://www.youtube.com/c/frothlyfesailingnandji CLICK THE BELL to know when NEW Nandji videos are up!

And the best part of that is seeing and knowing how happy it makes the 2(3) of you ,
I sure understand the " see-through " floor thought , as ..."Old Smokey "... it an;t no more ..."All hail FANG " ( did I get that right )
For all the Sh-t and worries that the two of you have gone through ( that I'm sure a lot of others would have given up long ago ) I can't possibly imagine how good you're feeling now ...and with each day it keeps getting better .
No question , you're my favorite saliors/people( legends) /channel ...And as much as I have so loved seeing your travels and diving etc , I am even enjoying these last several videos more , as I can so easily see the joy in the two of you .
Big thanks to Uncle K , ...good people for good people
Keep em coming
Bob from Calgary
. We won't know who she soon, but loved and looked after. "Keep On Sailing Junandji" (my pet name for Nandji) Go you Legends! Stoked for you two.
