Seaweed and submerged branches repeatedly foul the propeller as Wenceslao and Sylvie navigate their sailboat south through the Canal du Loir in France, forcing two dives to clear the shaft by hand.14:51 The canal runs at roughly 2.1 meters depth, with heavy aquatic vegetation and floating debris from riverside trees making propeller fouling nearly unavoidable.14:48 Their improvised fix for subsequent weed banks: a bamboo cane (caña de tacuara) lashed ahead of the propeller shaft as a deflector, cutting engine power before the shaft can wrap vegetation.29:58 The automated locks on the Loir branch require no radio call — a handheld blue-light remote triggers the lock cycle, with a single green light confirming the gate is opening and both lights green required before entry.20:33 The crew also takes on water at a marina after struggling to find fill points at locks, explores a derelict house near one overnight stop, and watches the France–Spain Euro match in the riverside town of Melun on Argentina's July 9 national holiday.1:43 Wenceslao notes that wearing Argentine jerseys drew hostile reactions from roughly 90 percent of French locals encountered.2:50 The bamboo-deflector technique reduced but did not eliminate fouling on the second pass through a weed-dense stretch.31:28
