Our new video is live — and Tangaroa is going Hybrid-Electric. This episode tells the full story behind the decision. Not just what we’re doing, but why. The assumption we made, the Cummins repower, the miles we put on the boat, and how we ended up saying yes to a hybrid-electric build. If you want to watch it, head to YouTube and search for Onboard Tangaroa: The Never-Ending Sea Trial. Thanks for being here and following along — this next chapter is a big one. #HybridElectricBoat #HybridElectri

So we are in a bit of a quandary. After 56 years, the bare aluminum inside Tangaroa’s engine room is pretty rough. Before we can paint and insulate anything for the hybrid-electric build, it all has to be cleaned properly. Yesterday we had a company come out to demo laser cleaning, and we also talk about another option we’re considering… dry ice blasting. No decisions yet, and honestly, we’re a little nervous about where the costs might land. To watch the full video, search YouTube for Onboard T

Our newest video is live. Six years ago, we bought an abandoned 78-foot luxury yacht that hadn’t moved in years. She was moldy, neglected, and completely covered by a tarp — and we had no real idea what we were getting ourselves into. In this video, we’re looking back with six years of hindsight. What we thought we were buying, what the reality actually looked like, and how that decision slowly turned into our dream retirement.

Our newest video is out now. Six years ago, we bought an abandoned 78-foot luxury yacht and moved aboard with no real idea how long the project would take. What started as a neglected, tarped-over boat slowly became our full-time home. In this video, we’re giving you a full tour of Tangaroa as she is today — an honest look at what living on a boat for six years actually looks like. What’s been rebuilt, what’s still a work in progress, and how plans change when a boat becomes your life. #OnboardT

As the year wraps up, we found ourselves looking at a simple map — a line tracing everywhere Tangaroa travelled in 2025. It’s just a map. But behind every mile is a memory. This year was a big part of the Great Siberian Sushi Run — a journey we’re still very much in the middle of, and one we’ll finish in 2026. What you’re seeing here isn’t the end of the story… it’s just one chapter. 2025 was full of moments we’ll never forget. Remote places. Long days. Quiet anchorages. Hard work. The kind of e

This one’s live. Over the last couple of days, Blaine’s been deep in Tangaroa’s engine room pulling parts, disconnecting engines, and rewiring power so we can keep living aboard while everything gets torn apart. It’s the kind of work you don’t always see — but it’s the stuff that has to happen before anything new can go in. Once you reach this point, there’s no going back. If you want to see what actually comes out of an engine room before a major system change, and how we’re keeping the boat po
