A 6.5-foot draft vessel navigates the Exuma Sound in the Bahamas, timing the passage into Little Farmer's Key with an incoming tide to clear shallow sections.5:29 The crew maintains the boat’s extensive teak woodwork using a combination of belt, orbital, and corner sanders before applying varnish.0:33 During the transit, a chafed dinghy tow line is replaced with a halyard knot to prevent fraying and accidental release.2:37 The vessel’s hydraulic steering system requires frequent fluid top-offs due to an unresolved leak, though the autopilot remains functional.4:20 After anchoring, the crew hikes to a cave near Oven Rock and visits a nearby beach heavily littered with ocean-borne plastic and fishing gear.15:46 The crew dines at the Little Farmer's Yacht Club before preparing to meet guests arriving by private aircraft.13:26 Maintaining teak requires significant labor and expense, while navigating the Exumas necessitates careful tide management for vessels with drafts exceeding six feet.
