The crew of the 15-ton wooden vessel Red Aviva prepares for a four-day haul-out in La Cruz de Juanacoxley, Mexico, by sourcing bottom paint, zincs, and stuffing box packing.1:21 Before the scheduled lift, they perform a final sail to clear the anchor chain and inspect the hull.7:21 Once in the boatyard, the crew power-washes the hull and begins a meticulous inspection for marine borers, specifically Teredo worms and gribbles.16:27 They discover that the vessel’s sacrificial sheathing successfully protected the structural planking from significant damage, though the rudder and areas where paint had flaked away show signs of infestation.26:46 Garrett uses a torch to kill the borers in their boreholes, followed by plans to fill the voids with epoxy putty and apply fresh anti-fouling paint.21:32 The keel, ballast, and seams remain in excellent condition, confirming the structural integrity of the hull after 3,000 miles of travel.17:32 The haul-out serves as a routine maintenance period to address cosmetic sun damage on the topsides and ensure the vessel remains seaworthy for future cruising.
