Cosa tratta questo video
The crew of the Seeker prepares for departure as sea conditions deteriorate and wind shifts.Watch Maintenance tasks focus on securing the vessel for an upcoming passage, specifically addressing hull integrity. The team identifies multiple points of water ingress and prepares wooden plugs to seal these leaks permanently. They mix a batch of epoxy to bond the wooden panels into the hull, aiming to eliminate the leaks before getting underway. Additional preparations include securing the anchor, a task prioritized to avoid handling heavy ground tackle while at sea. The crew also discusses the logistics of using a bosun's chair for mast work, though they ultimately prioritize hull repairs over aloft maintenance due to the worsening weather.
