Annette manages a solo refit on the 46-ft ketch SV Cordelia while Steve travels from Guatemala to the UK for two weeks.0:14 During this period, the vessel remains docked at Monkey Bay Marina in the Rio Dulce, Guatemala. Annette executes a list of maintenance tasks, including stripping varnish from cabin doors and the forward head, and removing ten headlining panels in the master cabin. The manual labor causes physical strain, requiring her to limit daily progress to avoid hand fatigue. The marine toilet fails during the second week, forcing a temporary switch to manual waste disposal until the Joker valve can be replaced. Annette maintains a daily routine of boat work, video editing, and communal dining at the marina’s palapa to mitigate the isolation of living aboard alone. The two reunite in Guatemala City after Annette completes an 11-hour bus journey to meet Steve’s return flight. Consistent scheduling and breaking large projects into small, manageable daily tasks help maintain progress on major refits during solo periods.
