What this video covers

The crew of SV Delos anchors in a Maine island anchorage to tie the boat to a private dock using a stern-to configuration with a bridle to maintain distance from the pilings.2:01 After securing the vessel, they forage for mussels at low tide, cleaning them in seawater before steaming them with beer, bacon grease, and aromatics.10:19 The crew also troubleshoots a noisy, smoking washing machine, identifying a seized seal and worn bearings (6304-Z and 6206) that require replacement.17:46 While anchored, they observe bald eagles in the vicinity and later sail to Port Clyde to visit the Marshall Point Lighthouse and purchase local lobster.21:28 The washing machine repair requires a full disassembly of the drum to access the failed components, forcing the crew to seek alternative laundry methods while awaiting parts.15:24
