Another boating video made especially for folks who don’t hang around in boatyards.

I towed my boat from home to its summer home in Bellingham on Friday. It was a stressful, time-consuming non-event. The road over Stevens Pass was wet, but not icy. A landslide closed the northbound lanes of I-5 just south of my destination, so I had to take a detour with an oversized load in tow.

Fun times!

Anyway, shortly after arrival, they lifted my boat off its trailer and blocked it up in the boatyard. I need a bit of bottom work done so it’ll be on the hard here for about a week. I’ll be living aboard — yes, on blocks — for about 10 days.

As they were working, I used my phone to record the process on video. Here’s that video, edited for length — the process took about an hour — and narrated. I think it’ll give most folks a look at something they’ve never seen in real life.

Here’s the video and description on YouTube:

It’s boating season again in the Pacific Northwest! I’ve towed my boat from its winter home in my garage to its summer home in Bellingham, WA. In this video, I show the process of removing the boat from the trailer with a boat lift and blocking it up in the yard. The whole thing is narrated (and I can’t wait for viewers to comment on all my mistakes). If you’re like me, you’re fascinated by the use of highly specialized equipment and skilled workers to perform tasks that most people have no idea about. Enjoy the video!

Many thanks to the folks at Seaview North for letting me record them at work. I know my boat is in good hands.

And remember, my boat is in a charter program at San Juan Yachting in Bellingham. YOU can take it out for a week on your own or with me as your captain. Visit https://www.SanJuanYachting.com/ for details. Tell them Maria sent you!
