What this video covers

Djé and Nad, owners of the catamaran Mister Tongue, perform emergency repairs on their vessel while anchored at Châtain Bay, Saint Lucia, ahead of a scheduled haul-out. The crew identifies a water leak in the bilge originating from a faulty fitting on the pressurized water pump system.1:28 Djé repairs the connection using Teflon tape, applying it in a clockwise direction to ensure the seal tightens rather than unravels during installation.5:11 Simultaneously, the crew repairs a torn lazy bag by sewing a patch over the damaged fabric and reinforcing the zipper stitching to protect the mainsail during the upcoming four-month haul-out period.10:07 The vessel experiences significant wind gusts, reaching up to 45 knots, which causes the anchor to drag slightly until it catches on a rock ledge.10:46 The crew confirms the anchor's security by diving to inspect the chain and seabed.16:25 The boat is subsequently hauled out on February 18 for extensive maintenance, including structural repairs to the hull.30:16
