The crew re-beds the jib tracks on their sailboat after discovering leaks and old silicone sealant.0:36 They remove the tracks, clean the surfaces, and reinstall them using butyl tape.3:03 To prepare for offshore sailing, they install a Y-valve in the waste system, allowing the toilet to discharge either into the holding tank or directly overboard.4:27 This installation requires rerouting hoses in a confined space, which they facilitate by slicing the old, stubborn hose ends to ease removal and applying marine grease to slide new connections into place.8:19 Finally, the crew steps the mast after a previous attempt was delayed by high winds.13:19 They tension the rigging, including the backstay, and reconnect the halyards and electrical wiring.15:29 A minor issue with a fouled topping lift requires a climb up the mast to clear the line from the shrouds.15:47 The boat is successfully re-rigged and ready for sailing.
