The crew of the Millennial Falcon prepares for an ocean passage from the Caribbean to Bermuda by performing rig maintenance, bulk provisioning, and administrative tasks. To correct a forward bow in the mast, the crew replaces short diamond stay fittings with long-stud Stay-Lok terminals, allowing for proper tensioning and mast alignment.3:32 They also source local fuel and food, noting that bulk-buying non-perishables like flour and beans is more efficient than overstocking.10:56 The crew secures PCR tests for entry requirements and prepares the vessel for sea by stowing the dinghy and outboard, rigging jacklines, and cooking meals in advance.13:58 They emphasize the importance of researching specific hardware requirements before purchasing parts, as incorrect fittings previously hindered their repairs.6:51 The final preparations include sewing interior curtains for the upcoming passage and finalizing water and diesel top-offs.16:51 Proper rig tuning and thorough, pre-passage provisioning significantly reduce the workload and stress during the final days before departure.
