Huub replaces a seized propane stove on his 30-foot boat with a used unit acquired from a catamaran owner.1:01 The installation requires a new propane hose, which he sources in Marigot, Saint Martin, after discovering the original hose fitting used reverse threading.19:39 He secures the new connection using a hose splicer and two stainless steel clamps, verifying the seal with a soap-and-water leak test.20:11 During the same period, he troubleshoots a malfunctioning refrigerator that fails to cool properly.11:22 He identifies a matted, dust-covered air intake on the compressor, which caused the unit to overheat and lose efficiency.12:51 Using a dinghy pump to clear the debris restores the compressor’s cooling performance.11:52 He also notes that washing cutlery in saltwater accelerates rust, necessitating high-grade stainless steel replacements.16:03 He concludes his repairs in Marigot before planning a haul-out in Grenada, where he intends to replace 110-volt power tools damaged by previous deck leaks.19:00
