What this video covers

Pablo Berrus uses the anchor chain and anchor being down on the ground as an opportunity to remove the windlass for cleaning and greasing on day 13 of preparing his round-the-world sailing voyage.0:01 With the chain already off the boat, the windlass is fully accessible, making it the practical moment to strip it down, clean internal components, and apply fresh grease before reassembly. The work is part of a broader pre-departure maintenance sequence on his boat ahead of a solo circumnavigation.
