The crew of Supernova, currently docked in Portimao, Portugal, performs several maintenance tasks while awaiting delayed parts.4:47 They replace a faulty, improperly repaired hydraulic steering hose with two new custom-built lines sourced from a local shop for 45 euros.17:24 To address issues with the dinghy lift, they replace the existing wire rope with Dyneema line, though the new setup requires manual guidance to prevent the line from piling up unevenly on the winch drum.18:20 Additionally, the crew tests two different rust-removal products on the deck’s non-slip paint and gel coat, finding that a spray-on cleaner effectively removes stains.28:17 They also declutter the boat by removing an outdated surround-sound system to donate to another vessel.11:58 The crew continues to wait for further parts, including solar panels, while coordinating with a local sail loft to service their mainsail and headsail.9:24
