What this video covers
Warren organises a treasure-map scavenger hunt across a Fijian island to give Erica a full day off the boat, ending with a pre-booked massage and facial at a local spa.Watch The map, handwritten by Warren, is hidden inside a donated book at a community book exchange; Erica follows the clues solo, hits an unmarked fork in the road, and still finds the spa by 10 a.m. as instructed.18:32 Before the treasure hunt, Warren makes pancakes — spilling batter across the galley — and serves breakfast aboard.21:29 The couple also tours the galley upgrades Warren completed while Erica was away for eight months: the oven relocated from a high awkward position to the former freezer space below, a new induction two-burner cooktop added alongside a retained propane burner, pull-out drawers built for dry goods and appliances, and the freezer moved under a cockpit seat for easier access and more capacity.6:59 Active condensation on the freezer lid is an unresolved problem; they ask viewers for solutions.8:22 Warren also diagnoses and fixes the dinghy outboard's carburettor — a stuck accelerator pump causing a lean mixture at throttle-up — by cleaning the pump and cutting new gaskets from sheet material.11:49 He introduces the EZC Oli Block, a split-opening snatch block that clips onto an existing line without threading, which he plans to use as a barber hauler to improve close-hauled performance.3:45
