Ce que couvre cette vidéo

The crew of the catamaran Mistertong performs maintenance on their saildrives and cabin hardware while anchored in Saint-Anne, Martinique. After discovering oil-water emulsion—"mayonnaise"—in the saildrive, they hire a mechanic who uses a custom-built aluminum caisson to replace the propeller shaft seals while the boat remains in the water.14:23 The mechanic requires the boat to be moved to a shallow sandbank to prevent losing small parts in deep grass.30:23 Following the seal replacement, the crew struggles to refill the saildrive to the correct capacity of approximately 2.8 to 3 liters.16:19 They discover that opening a secondary side bolt is necessary to vent air and allow for a complete oil change.17:18 After a short test passage to Le Marin, the oil remains clean and red, confirming the repair is successful.26:53 Additionally, the crew repairs cabin window seals and installs new inserts for the stanchions on the cabin roof.2:54
