Sailing a 39-foot sailboat up the coast of Thailand from Malaysia with six people aboard, Camille and Jesse faced four mechanical failures in one month. The most serious: the engine cut out completely while rounding Chalong Bay in Phuket.▶ 2:01 With no power, they rolled out the sails, sailed into the anchorage, and anchored under sail alone in roughly 10 meters of water.▶ 1:23 Troubleshooting pointed to air in the fuel system; after checking primary and secondary fuel filters (both clean), they bled the entire system down to the injectors and restarted successfully on the third attempt.▶ 6:43 Days later, the manual toilet pump failed — a broken internal seal — and Camille replaced it with a spare Seaflow pump, working around heavily calcified discharge fittings and a rusted elbow she chose to leave in place rather than risk splitting the hose.▶ 7:48 The watermaker then began pushing air instead of water; adjusting a pressure valve at the back of the unit restored flow.▶ 16:16 Finally, barnacle growth inside the speedometer required a hull dive and scraping.▶ 16:36 The crew is now heading south along the Thai coast toward Malaysia for a haul-out.▶ 17:11 Carrying spares for critical components — pump, filters — kept each failure from becoming an emergency.
