Steve and the crew of the 38-ft wooden boat Arabella prepare for a transit from Camden, Maine, to Rockland for a haul-out.Watch To ready the vessel for travel, Steve installs a diesel heater, using Hardiebacker cement board as a heat shield to protect overhead deck beams from exhaust pipe temperatures.4:14 He also completes the jib furling system by installing a stand-up block on the bowsprit and routing the furling line through a low-friction ring lashed with 1/8-inch Dyneema.11:47 After losing battery state-of-charge data during electrical work, the crew moves the boat to Lyman Moors in Camden to connect to shore power and fully charge the battery bank.7:21 During a previous storm, the crew successfully held the boat off the dock using a multi-line spring system, though the high tension caused a section of the oak toe rail to snap.19:56 Steve plans to repair the damaged rail by scarfing in a new piece, noting that the modular design of the rail allows for easier replacement than if it were integrated into the covering board.25:05
