The crew of the aluminum sailboat Jibsea replaces a worn cutlass bearing and prop shaft while hauled out in Conception Bay South, Newfoundland. To avoid galvanic corrosion common with dissimilar metals, they install a custom-machined, polymer-based cutlass bearing.2:27 The installation requires light tapping with a mallet to seat the bearing, though the shaft fitment tightens overnight, necessitating manual filing of the inner diameter to restore clearance.10:46 During the haul-out, the crew also applies TotalBoat Aluma paint to the hull and replaces the cockpit instrument panel with new teak sealed with TotalBoat Danish teak sealer.1:27 After launching at high tide, the vessel departs for a coastal passage toward Buena Vista, encountering significant whale activity and variable depths ranging from 8 to 156 feet.16:54 The crew notes that the polymer bearing allows for quieter operation and can run dry without immediate damage, unlike traditional naval brass and rubber bearings.4:19
