Sam and Jessica, aboard Adventure Can't Wait, spend several days at a small, uncrowded anchorage — identified in the video as "Sausappletus" — sewing a full set of dinghy chaps from fabric they had carried aboard for six months.5:16 The project covers templating, cutting, and sewing fabric covers for a dinghy, including attaching leather trim around handles and building a small storage pouch at the bow for the painter.19:20 Fitting the finished chaps requires drilling holes in the dinghy tube to thread thin nylon line — the same cord Sam uses for decorative knot work on the helm — through the rub rail.15:19 The chaps fit well along most of the dinghy but flop loosely at the stern, which Sam and Jessica rate an 80% failure on that section.18:51 Overall they judge the project a success: the covers eliminate heat, stickiness, and rattling on the inflatable tubes.19:35 After two weeks at anchor, changing weather chases them out; they retrieve a stern anchor using the dinghy, coiling the anchor line in a daisy-chain "bird's nest" to prevent tangles.9:00 The 30-mile passage north in the Sea of Cortez involves sailing west on an unhelpful tack before wind dies and forces motoring.13:17 Dinghy chaps sewn from stored fabric work well enough to protect the tubes, but stern-section fit demands more precise templating than the rest of the cover.
