Nick performs winter maintenance and repairs on his Hanse 548, Mila Felice, at Marina Balsic.0:01 The primary mechanical failure involved the bow thruster’s elbow joint, which snapped due to a bent, off-center spindle.0:30 Replacing the spindle and associated parts cost 1,200 euros.2:38 The thruster’s relay also required attention; high-current arcing had degraded the silver contacts, causing the relay to stick and risking a thruster that would not shut off.2:52

Additional maintenance includes replacing the underwater lights, servicing the stern thruster, and repairing the electrically lowerable saloon table, which required a custom-machined fan joint.3:40 The boat’s L-keel and 2.35-meter draft are inspected for damage, alongside a check of the rudder.1:00 The vessel is also receiving new sails and a reinstalled Starlink system.5:28 The owner notes that the complexity of systems on a six-year-old production yacht necessitates ongoing, costly repairs to maintain operational reliability for charter service.4:31
