WE'RE FINALLY SAILING! Last minute fouled water pump can't get in the way of our dream!

Written By Matt Odom

After three years of talking about sailing, dreaming of owning our sailboat, then acquiring an old abandoned sailboat for very little money... we finally take our 1970 Cheoy Lee 36' sloop out on our first sail together.    A last minute fouled water pump causes some high anxiety, but we persevere and get out there on the open water!  What a feeling!
