Jerome Rand prepares his Westsail 32, *Mighty Sparrow*, for a two-week offshore passage from West Palm Beach, Florida. He completes a comprehensive pre-departure checklist, including engine maintenance, rig inspection, and cleaning the hull. He changes fuel and oil filters, confirms the engine starts reliably, and inspects the mast, halyards, and stays, noting only a minor adjustment required for the Windex wind indicator.8:46 Rand reattaches a custom marine-ply splash guard near the traveler and monitors chafe on the Ares windvane control lines, which he replaces with smaller-diameter Dyneema.11:12 He relies on Starlink for weather routing and connectivity, opting against renewing his Iridium Go subscription.18:19 The boat is provisioned for two weeks, with long-term stores available for longer durations.25:06 Rand identifies the primary departure challenge as maneuvering out of his slip in southerly winds, which he plans to navigate by timing his exit with a forecasted midday wind lull.28:41
