The crew of a cruising sailboat in Bundaberg, Australia, removes 60 meters of anchor chain showing signs of rust for professional hot-dip galvanizing.5:56 After anchoring in the Burnett River, they transfer the chain to a dinghy and transport the 98-kilogram load to a local facility, Kenco, via a donated ride from a local resident.13:07 The galvanizing process involves stripping the old zinc in a hydrochloric acid bath, dipping the chain in flux, and submerging it in molten zinc at 450 degrees Celsius.15:22 The facility vibrates the chain after the dip to clear excess zinc from the links.15:52 The total cost for the service is approximately 150 British pounds.17:04 While the chain is ashore, the crew uses a 13-meter spare chain and a 100-foot rope rode to maintain their position in the tidal river.7:46 The crew also outlines a three-month plan to sail south along the Australian coast from Bundaberg to Sydney, with a future goal of heading north toward Thursday Island for departure.19:48
