What this video covers

After experiencing heavy rolling at anchor, the crew of Adventure Can't Wait relocates to Bahia Conception, Baja California, to find calmer water.0:18 The crew installs a mast-mounted spinnaker pole ring to improve downwind performance, using a single-bolt marking technique to ensure accurate alignment for the four mounting holes.4:10 They tap the holes directly into the mast, noting that the pre-purchased ring fits the mast profile without modification.4:59

With the boat settled, the crew uses their planing dinghy to explore Isla Coyote and search for snorkeling spots, though they find the water visibility poor.6:16 Because their water maker remains broken, they transport water in jerry cans from a local restaurant, treating the supply with a half-teaspoon of chlorine per five gallons.8:07 The day concludes with a visit to natural hot springs along the shore of Bahia Conception, where they find the water temperature fluctuates significantly with the tide.11:33 Consistent daily maintenance projects help keep the vessel in good condition during their extended cruising.5:40
