The crew of *Into the Mystic* performs extensive hull and navigation system upgrades while the boat is on the hard.0:06 Projects include removing the rudder for fiberglass repair, replacing seven through-hulls with sturdier metal ball valves, and installing new B&G electronics.1:57 The team replaces two existing transducers with a single Airmar tri-ducer for depth, speed, and water temperature, and adds a ForwardScan transducer.10:14 Because the new sensors require specific mounting angles, the crew fills old through-hull holes with fiberglass and drills new, angled holes to accommodate the sensors within their 22-degree operating range.11:00 After encountering a setback where a through-hull fitting proved too short, the crew shaves the sensor base to ensure a flush fit and seals the installation with 4200 sealant.17:41 The project also involves routing NMEA 2000 cabling to the navigation station and sealing the mast base to prevent leaks.18:30 Work is delayed by a severe hamstring injury sustained by the host, which halts progress for several weeks.3:38
