The crew of the 53-foot vessel Catalpa performs extensive maintenance on the anchor locker and ground tackle while in a Mexican boatyard. To prevent water from entering the bilge, they construct a false floor in the anchor locker and install a dedicated drain that routes water overboard.2:03 The project includes welding and reinforcing the bow rollers to reduce leverage and prevent the chain from slipping.18:02 The crew also installs a new DST810 transducer and replaces several through-hull fittings, using Loctite 577 and 4200 sealant for the connections.1:03 They re-galvanize their 90-meter anchor chain and sew webbing markers at 10-meter intervals to track deployment depth without an electronic counter.17:43 A Mantis swivel is installed on the anchor, secured with seizing wire to prevent accidental disconnection.14:21 Despite the upgrades, the chain occasionally jumps the gypsy wheel due to a sizing mismatch, requiring temporary manual intervention during retrieval.19:21
