A 40-foot sailboat prepares for a two-month haul-out in Solomons, Maryland, following a coastal transit up the Chesapeake Bay.3:16 During the passage, the owner addresses recurring generator shutdowns, initially suspecting low voltage from corrosion or a bad ground before troubleshooting the oil pressure, water temperature, and exhaust temperature sensors.1:27 Replacing the shutdown relay with a preheat relay temporarily stabilizes the generator, allowing for air conditioning use.19:51 The vessel also experiences engine trouble caused by air entering the fuel system through a loose fitting on a secondary fuel filter, which the owner identifies after finding water and debris in the primary filters.23:17 The boat is hauled at a shipyard for a six-to-eight-week period, with the owner noting that the two-year bottom paint remained effective despite minimal scrubbing.24:28 The owner plans to continue the season in New York and Block Island after the maintenance period.26:26
