After completing a renaming ceremony for their new aluminum sailboat, Gypsy II, in Panama, the crew conducts a shakedown sail to test systems and familiarize themselves with the vessel's handling. The crew performs a mast climb using a two-to-one pulley system to install a new wind transducer before departing the marina. Once outside the break wall, they hoist the mainsail and headsail, noting significant differences in sail trim and deck layout compared to their previous boat. During the test, they monitor water tanks for leaks and observe the boat's performance in 9 knots of wind, achieving 5.7 knots speed over ground. The return to the marina reveals unexpected prop walk, requiring a second approach to the dock with assistance from marina staff. The crew identifies several adjustments needed before their upcoming 2,000-nautical-mile passage, including replacing short dock lines and adding padding to a wobbly cockpit step. Transitioning to a new vessel requires relearning muscle memory for sail handling and maneuvering, even for experienced sailors.
