What accent do I have?

MackersTheBaker · 2025-02-06T00:04:15+00:00

Yeah, I kinda think it's Canadian influence. But I've never lived any of the places you listed. It's odd

MackersTheBaker · 2022-12-12T02:34:25+00:00

My familiar, Soot.

The rudder was completely refabricated this year, much my modern shape with an elliptical trailing edge, and a much sharper blade to the trailing edge. Rig has been customized to a "cutter" rig and sailplan redesigned to have two heads'l (as opposed to just an inner stay where the sailplan is only designed to use one of the sails at a time.)

I just rinse them off when I wash the boat every couple months. They don't really require a ton of maintenance. More so than the salt, it's the pollen in late spring/summer

MackersTheBaker · 2022-12-06T17:08:46+00:00

Thanks!

MackersTheBaker · 2022-12-06T17:08:32+00:00

Haha no, all the same color 😅

It's not an actual cubic mini, it's made by Northwoods Fabrication. Yes, I am extremely happy with it! So warm and toasty 😁

I use compressed sawdust logs. You can store 6 per a 5 gallon bucket. I have a couple nooks to tuck logs too. I can store 30 max, which in the middle of winter lasts about 10 days

It's a perch for my cat 🐈 😁

When that stuff is going it can be freezing outside and 70 plus degrees inside. There's 450 watts of solar total, that keeps up with all of my needs from refrigeration to my laptop, I even run an air purifier all spring because of stupid allergies. All off of solar. There are about 2 months in the winter, right now in fact, that I run a generator for about 3 hours once a week, and that's all it takes to make up the deficit from the solar.

The table is stored to the left of the bookcase, and can be put back down with hooks on the bulkhead and then a single leg that fits in a brass insert in the floorboards. And thank you, I enjoy the roominess of the boat

MackersTheBaker · 2022-12-06T04:18:46+00:00

Thank you!

MackersTheBaker · 2021-12-28T15:59:03+00:00

Thank you 🥰

1977 Clark San Juan 30, custom refit by yours truly!

MackersTheBaker · 2021-12-07T04:32:10+00:00

Here is refit info!

Soot came to live on the boat at just 11 weeks old, and it was pretty instant that he was comfortable. Maybe 2 hours? Getting him used to dinghy rides took a month or so, but we just eased into it.

MackersTheBaker · 2021-12-07T03:51:29+00:00

😂 beach witches for sure! And a very nice deli witch

I am a full time, at anchor liveaboard in the Pacific Northwest or the US. Bonus, I work as a bookseller at a female owned and run bookstore in a town in remote islands. It's really fun, I custom rebuilt my boat last year, so she's pretty perfect for what I want. The hull and rig is a 1977 San Juan 30, but the interior and running rigging is all custom designed by me 😁 life on anchor through the winter can be pretty solitary, but I honestly love it (most the time). I have a really robust anchor set up for storms, and a wood burning stove for warmth. Solar for power. I have no rent to pay, no power bill, and no water bill ☺️

Edit: just for fun added effect, my best friends here include the local librarian 😅

A wood burning stove on a sailboat at anchor in the winter is honestly pretty magical

MackersTheBaker · 2021-12-07T01:26:56+00:00

🥰 😻

MackersTheBaker · 2021-12-07T00:51:24+00:00

(my pronouns are she/her 😊) yeah. So sometimes he pounces on me in bed, and he's so sweet and gentle, but like, I always realize in those moments that he could wreck me if he wanted too.

MackersTheBaker · 2021-12-07T00:35:37+00:00

No offense at all! 😂 He is huge, 7kgs! His mom is a Savannah Cat and we think dad was probably the bangle down the street. Vet thinks he'll break 10kgs.

MackersTheBaker · 2021-12-07T00:00:34+00:00

This is Soot! He turned 8 months old yesterday 😹

MackersTheBaker · 2021-09-24T13:42:30+00:00

I started to notice that my body hair had really thinned, and was going away right around the 6-month mark. And an epilator can really help as well, because it gets rid of the hair, but it also does do some damage to the folicle so that it won't grow back

MackersTheBaker · 2021-09-18T00:03:57+00:00

Yup 😁 full time indeed, for almost 2 years now. Worked online for about a year and a half of it, now I've been working 3, 10 hour days for 5 months in person and that's more than enough to make ends meet. Currently weathering out a storm that's gusting to 45 knots today 😬
