Garrett and Ruth perform maintenance on their boat, Red Aviva, while waiting for a dental appointment in Mexico.12:27 To prevent the mainsail gaff jaws from snagging on the upper wooden ratlins during heavy winds, Garrett fabricates and installs black locust hardwood slides.0:47 These slides extend past the ratlins to create a uniform surface for the gaff to glide against.2:27 He also plans to install a gaff vang to allow for easier sail handling without needing to head directly into the wind.2:56 Meanwhile, Ruth applies a protective "slush" coating—a mixture of boat soup and black Rust-Oleum paint—to the mizzen shrouds and ratlins.6:51 Additional maintenance includes re-leathering the mizzen and main boom jaws and repairing a chafed wire on the port navigation lamp.11:37 The crew uses this time in port to prepare the vessel for an upcoming multi-day passage, weighing the options of hopping down the Baja coast or making a direct crossing to Mazatlán.12:59
