A Catalina 30 owner performs masthead maintenance and engine service to prepare for a coastal cruise to Santa Cruz Island.▶ 0:04 To replace a faulty anemometer, the owner uses a bosun’s chair and a double-block mechanical advantage system to ascend the mast solo, though a professional rigger assists with the final ascent.▶ 3:07 The process involves cutting away old shrink wrap from the cable connection, installing the new sensor, and verifying the signal on the boat's chart plotter.▶ 5:22 While aloft, the owner cleans the mast track and applies dry lubricant.▶ 6:27 Following the mast work, the owner performs an oil change on the marine engine by warming the oil to reduce viscosity and using a manual vacuum pump to extract the fluid through the dipstick tube.▶ 9:44 The owner confirms the new anemometer registers 10 knots of wind and verifies the engine oil level after replacing the filter and refilling the crankcase.▶ 9:15
