Crew aboard a sailboat two days into a roughly 20-day Atlantic crossing spots a mechanical problem on deck — a fitting or mount moving under load that Brett identifies as wearing its bolts — and lashes it in place as a temporary fix.29:15 The passage is heading toward the bay where Ayana's newly purchased boat is waiting.0:17 Wind drops to near calm, forcing the crew to motor at 2,000 RPM, burning about three-quarters of a gallon per hour, while the watermaker produces 35 gallons in an hour to cover showers and drinking water.9:55 In lighter air the crew sets up wing-on-wing with a preventer rigged using Dyneema soft shackles on low-friction rings.4:22 Jade splices new safety tethers from 6 mm Dyneema, replacing old nylon webbing, explaining the splice technique and the quick-release hardware salvaged from the old tethers.24:31 Two dogs, Penny and Dingo, are aboard; Dingo's ear is splinted and re-taped after the original wrap loosened.12:45 The crew runs rotating four-hour night watches and tracks a vessel 40 miles out on AIS.32:21
