Ahoi, When I recognized the rudder was broken, I had to figure out how to sail ZERO without rudder. I actually found several ways to steer and could handle Z...

welcome to s10 this is our beautiful
home
it's a 1974 Millers husband foster our
life happens outside and we laugh to be
out there we brought zero back to life
and returned she brings us to all the
beautiful places on our journey so come
on
you
I have a troch I together so I can put
out a drunk and use it ever you know
emergency rudder
that's a Siri I actually never did it
I'm used to say our rudder anyway work
just to prop walk I have to work against
the clock work and I think that should
be okay let me see I can tell you later
day number three
the rudders definitely broken I drove it
down there and the shaft and rudder
itself are separated
the rudder is attached to the hull two
times on the bottom so it should stay
there but I can't steer at all and it's
just no connection and there's no way to
fix it
but moving so much so that's good and I
could steer with the drove pretty good
cocktail why I used to run against
couldn't go faster than two
much tension and shaping anyway so very
slow very a few consuming and very
nervous because it's the movement of the
boat is really bad rolling from left to
right so I was so happy I could set
sails again afternoon
a little breeze coming it's over six
went to eight knots and are we having 12
knots
in a good direction so I'm heating
directly to my waypoint on the south
west shore day number four I'm ten
nights before kawaii
why over there already
because this morning my heylia adopts a
general broke I read it in I could use
it for some time but it was too many
wrinkles in in it so I had to take it
down I have heard it uh in more and more
and more piece by piece so I ended up
with justice day saying I reached the
main let's wind picked up to twenty two
twenty three knots because I slowed down
too much with all the generator to run
the engine to push me a little further I
think I need to take down the states
so besides the fact
I know I said I was going
maybe to first
check her
see
hold the
Stacia gets to in push it again soon
follow the leader
Tuesday says she opened
completely
push everything I cook
full force and
finally finally she made it
and now we are sailing
a copy a motor sailing because the
look at this
this is a 90-degree tacking anger
this is awesome and all without a rudder
I never saw it that this as possible
so that was my highlight today tech zero
without a rudder I was sailing very
close laws on our side of why
I decided to take North East
so I stay free out of pretty busy
shipping lane over there
during daylight
and unfortunately the win for South East
so exactly the direction where I want to
go
it took quite awhile it was much waited
as well
but I used to chance to
fix the general here yes so I went up
the mast and to change civilians not in
I
let's see can I do a one-handed bowline
looks good on top of the words
I think I stay here it's nice yet
maybe next time bring some snacks
okay time to go down
50 miles away from Honolulu while is way
behind us can't see it anymore so yeah
five minutes I had internet connection
on my phone but this was just enough to
say you've got lots of messages this
spring brought me the whole way through
the night clothes sheer admittin clothes
shield made
works against the proper walk and just
works really good
I can adjust with the throttle or with
the middle sheet my course I want to go
more to star what I either give a little
more rpm or I open the sheet I want to
go more to port I close the sheet or
reduce the throttle that works really
good two more hours
and then we are not a Lulu
quite intensive
week not a whole week but
yeah well intensive days here was
because all the problems with
excitement to leaving to Alaska
sailing to wonderful days of sailing
then the problems with a rudder and
afterwards these a lot of learning about
how to say is a toad actually but I
wasn't alone
I gave these two little fellows a nice
right
and tell me your code I slept very good
I put my alarm on every 30 minutes point
out because this is high-traffic area
Mobe not so much during night but I
wasn't sure I want to be sure I wanted
to be sure about that and I wanted to be
sure about
if I want cause and not crashing into
the coast
when you even
are going too far south
so and on off night sleeping probably
something when T 5 minutes or 20 minutes
the whole night
actually I was so tired I fall asleep
they darling so
but a big thing it just me and you
just me and
we set sail a while
it's
my way to
it's just me and my boo
what's next on this see how I talk to 4
and finally at an apartment for holding
our zoo

the rebuilding enjoy stuff
now my fingers are aching
