Arthur prepares his Wharram Pahi 42 for a coastal passage from Hoorn, Netherlands, to Nieuwpoort, Belgium, after completing extensive structural repairs. To improve sailing performance, he installs a new autopilot with ScanStrut cable seals and adds self-tailing winches to the mast to better tension the jib sheets. He reinforces the beam lashings and secures the dinghy horizontally on deck to prevent the structural flexing and noise experienced during initial shakedowns. The 100-mile transit involves navigating the busy shipping lanes off Rotterdam, where the crew manages sloppy seas and cross-channel traffic while maintaining a 4.9-knot average speed despite a 2-knot adverse current. The vessel handles a long swell at the port entrance and offshore conditions well, confirming the reliability of the engines and the integrity of the deck repairs. Arthur relies on crew assistance for sail handling and meal preparation during the overnight watch. Consistent maintenance of rigging tension and deck fittings proves essential for managing the boat's movement in open water.
