Mixing a bout of philosophical moments alongside the irresistible tinkering of installing a water filtration system on the boat, both ensuring a limitless flow of water aboard along with the coveted and mystical utopia that's unique and an integral part of boating. Part 1 of 2.

As always, credit to @BoatingWithBoogaboo for reinspiring me to the boating world once again in 2021 (after I sold my Bayliner 2255 Cierra Sunbridge back in 2005 to prioritize our newborns), and for his informative video about installing his own water filtration system. -It was on a Sunday night, winter of 2020/2021, while watching another marvelous Boating with Boogaboo video that I had an "Ah-ha!" moment... It just clicked and I said to myself: "That's it, I'm getting a boat and it's going to be a Sea Ray Sundancer, over 30 feet". (I ended with a 34 footer, in part thanks to how I was able to reduce other costs -see my videos 1 to 3 on: "How I can enjoy the boat sustainably". Part 3 to be posted shortly). The inspiration to buy a boat again will be featured in an upcoming video... "Buying the Boat Sight Unseen".
