Boat Pizza

What’s better than fresh pizza? Fresh pizza while sailing!

Sadly, Neptune’s Pizza hasn’t caught on yet and there is still no delivery zzz out in the ocean. If you want pizza, you’re going to have to make it yourself. This video will walk you through the whole process and make your mouth water in the process!

Lazy Chicken

As readers of the blog, you guys will get early access to our upcoming videos! We are working on a series of videos where we show how to prepare delicious but simple recipes on a boat. These can be recipes for at anchor, while underway, or while in bad weather!

Lazy chicken is a favorite of mine when we are anchored. Frozen ingredients are put into a solar oven and after a few hours, the meal is ready! The sun oven thaws, bakes, and finishes the entire meal for you without any effort on your part; hence the name!

How to Make a Dyneema Grommet

A rope ring is called a grommet and they are incredibly useful on a sailboat! Anything you need to connect or attach can be easily setup using a grommet. Once you have a few of them you will soon find uses for them and then need even more grommets for other uses you have found around the boat!

I use this very same technique to make the deadeyes that hold up our synthetic standing rigging. This grommet, made with a Möbius Brummell Splice is incredibly strong and will stand up to whatever challenges you can throw at it!

Marlin Spike Hitch

A Marlin Spike Hitch is a very useful tool that can be used to tie other knots better. It allows you to pull much harder on a small line and actually create incredible amounts of tension in a line with ease.

This video shows you step by step how to tie a Marlin Spike Hitch.
