The crew of the sailboat *Squib* navigates the final stretch of the Danube River toward the Black Sea, focusing on the logistical challenge of stepping their mast. After failing to secure professional rigging services in Braila and Galati, they reach Tulcea, Romania, where they attempt to coordinate a mast-stepping operation.▶ 9:38 The crew encounters significant wake from passing taxi boats and heavy commercial traffic, which complicates deck work and rigging preparation.▶ 16:53 They eventually secure assistance at the Marina Awale, where a local mechanic named Ivanka provides access to a private crane.▶ 15:44 The crew spends approximately 45 minutes using the crane to raise the mast, manually securing the shrouds, forestay, and backstay while managing the vessel's position in a crowded slip.▶ 23:47 Despite initial difficulties with missing hardware and constant boat traffic, the mast is successfully stepped and temporarily tensioned. The crew pays 70 Euro for the crane service and 27 Euro for an overnight stay at the marina.▶ 25:09
