Qué cubre este vídeo
The 34-ft sailboat Wanderling undergoes a major haul-out and rudder maintenance project at Tyrell Bay Marine in Carriacou.7:16 After completing a Caribbean season, the crew identifies significant play in the lower rudder bearing and signs of osmosis on the skeg.10:08 Removing the rudder and skeg proves difficult, requiring the simultaneous extraction of both components and the cutting of mounting bolts while the assembly remained partially in place.14:40 The process involves grinding the skeg down to the laminate to allow for drying and using a custom-ground chisel to attempt the removal of stubborn brass fittings.10:53 Despite the challenges, the crew successfully removes the rudder assembly and replaces the worn bearings.15:48 Additionally, the crew installs a DIY saltwater pump system in the galley, utilizing a Trudesign manifold and a fine-mesh filter to draw water directly from beneath the hull for rinsing, which reduces freshwater consumption.5:42 The boat is then winterized and covered for the upcoming rainy season.19:02
