Preparing *Arabella* for a Newfoundland winter involves insulating hatches, winterizing the water maker, and modifying the freshwater fill system. To combat condensation, Steve installs exterior window film on port lights and removes insect screens to prevent moisture buildup.▶ 2:18 He replaces the standard, laborious tank-filling process by installing quick-connect fittings on the boat’s water intake ports, allowing for a direct hose connection from shore.▶ 6:23 The water maker is pickled for the season by flushing the system with fresh water and circulating a storage solution through the brine discharge and service ports.▶ 11:04 Additionally, Steve repairs a leaking diesel heater by disassembling and cleaning the metering valve assembly, which had been allowing fuel to escape through the overflow valve.▶ 15:04 The crew plans to shrink-wrap the deck in the coming weeks to further improve thermal efficiency for the winter months.▶ 4:42
