Armand and Liya plan to install a custom solar arch and dinghy davit system from Atlantic Towers on their boat to improve dinghy handling and increase solar capacity.1:15 The project requires precise measurements of the boat’s curved surfaces and a total investment of approximately $5,400, including freight.3:49 Because they are cruising nomads without a permanent address, they coordinate with a shipping annex to receive the 250-pound package.4:53 Before departing Santa Barbara, the crew uses radio headsets to communicate during anchor retrieval, a practice they credit as a "marriage saver" for reducing stress in windy conditions.12:05 During the departure, they accidentally snag another vessel's anchor with their own, requiring the use of a boat hook to clear the obstruction.13:50 They sail toward Catalina on a beam reach in 10–11 knots of wind, though the passage eventually requires motoring due to light winds and unfavorable currents.14:24 Upon arrival at Two Harbors, they encounter deep water and high winds, making it their most challenging anchorage to date.18:17
