Will the Dinghy Run?! First Test Before the Bahamas | Sailing Barefoot Ep. 5

The Bahamas adventure is getting closer, but there are still PLENTY of things to figure out before Ryan and The Margarita are ready to go! ⛵🌴 In this episode of Sailing Barefoot, Ryan and Sarah take a little break from boat projects to explore Daytona—including a trip to the Daytona Flea & Farmers Market and, because Ryan apparently can't prepare for three months in the Bahamas without it, a shopping trip to Bass Pro Shops. 😂🎣 Then it's back to the marina for something a little more important... Will the dinghy actually run?! Ryan gets the dinghy in the water and fires up its Mercury outboard for the first time. This little boat is going to be his lifeline once The Margarita is anchored in the Bahamas, so we definitely need to know she's ready for island duty! After that, Ryan and Sarah tackle some cleaning and organizing aboard The Margarita as they continue turning her into Ryan's home for the next three months. Every shopping trip, repair, test run and boat project means we're getting a little closer to finally pointing The Margarita toward the Bahamas. 🌊🌴 👣⛵ Subscribe to Sailing Barefoot and follow along as Ryan prepares for his three-month solo sailing adventure through the Bahamas!
