My mum gave me a tea towel today as she’s going through some old stuff and I swear it’s a #Nostr towel that was created well before its time 😎

I feel a little bad for not orange pilling more people. Over the years I’ve tried hard to express the importance of learning about money and the system were a part of. How the system benefits the few and allows those at the top to continue to control and print money. How Bitcoin can and will change this and how important it is for humanity to have a sound monetary base to build upon. But my biggest success is my dad and I’ve never been more proud of him. He’s a full orange 🍊 pilled 💊 Bitcoin maxi. He’s in his 80’s and he enjoys telling the bank manager that Bitcoin will make them redundant and that they need to watch “God Bless Bitcoin” Proud of you dad! My wife’s pretty orange pilled as well. She’s actually the actually the one that says you can never have enough Bitcoin and to sell the chairs. She’s a hard core maxi and would shave her head and sell her hair for sats! And both of them are on Nostr of you want some hard core Bitcoiners to follow here they are! @Improve My Image @JimboG @Clo PS what do you think of our. It kin orange window surrounds 🍊 💊

Been off Nostr lately as we’re in full refit mode here or as us “Bitcoiners” call it we’re doing some proof of work. Been eight weeks of refit and we’ve got another eight weeks of grinding and sanding this old girl until we’re back in the water and floating again. Here’s a few pics from the last few weeks as proof of our POW 💥 #sailstr

In the video below we’re laying up some carbon on the P-bracket that supports the propeller shaft. The last few weeks have been hard. Twelve hour days grinding and sanding, fibreglassing and repairing this old girl to bring her back to life and revitalise her isn’t easy. But everything worth having in life is never easy. It’s these moments and these times that make the good times even better. I know in six months time we’ll be enjoying a sunset and looking back on these days with fondly or at least I hope so! 😁⛵️

When people tell us we’re lucky to live a simple and easy lifestyle on a boat it reminds me of people that say you were lucky to get into Bitcoin early! There is no luck we all make our own luck it’s called “proof of work” and below is a video of the “proof of work” that provides us with this lifestyle. We’re presently doing a three month refit of the boat to bring her back to life so she can continue to safely carrying us around the world’s oceans for years to come. Nothing in life is free never forget this. They are the laws of nature, play by them and you’ll have a far more rewarding life.

What’s it like living on a boat? It’s definitely not for everyone. Life here is very free but with that freedom comes a lot of compromises. For one we don’t have endless electricity or water. We have to make our own using solar panels and a water maker or desalinator. This is good as on one hand you become very aware of power usage and being efficient and this also applies for water production and usage. To save water we use some of the world’s most efficient showerheads and also have a similar attachment for the end of our taps. These fittings aerate the water and make it feel as though you’re using more water after when in fact you’re using around .625 or 2lts per minute, which compared to the normal 10lt per minute shower head save you a lot of water. These small efficiencies are what we aim for when living on a boat as it’s all about using less while trying to do more. It’s why we love #Bitcoin as it’s also about freedom and being efficient with the storage of your time and energy. It’s also about where to focus that time and energy, how to spend it and how to use it. In the end it all comes down to Proof Of Work. If you’d like to know more about the fittings we use they’re made by a company in the US called Bricor. www.bricor.com
