Alex and Cory leave their sailboat in Luperon, Dominican Republic, in mid-September to fly to Canada for a family visit, marking the first time they have left the boat in the water rather than hauling it.▶ 6:52 Before departing, Cory dives with scuba gear to scrub barnacle growth from the hull, they take down the Genoa, stow books and bags to prevent mold, and place vinegar cups throughout the cabin — a precaution after a mold problem the previous year.▶ 7:09 The boat sits on a mooring with three barrels and U-lines in Luperon harbor.▶ 6:52 The family flies from Puerto Plata to Newark and then to Quebec City, arriving to 2°C after leaving 30–35°C Caribbean heat.▶ 15:14 In the days before departure they visit Linda and Thomas's farm, where Coral and Kai ride a horse and pet cows, and make a final trip to Playa Grande beach.▶ 0:15 In Canada they stay near Quebec City with family, picking apples and letting the kids run in fall foliage.▶ 15:16 Vinegar placed in enclosed spaces and sealing a previously leaking window are the primary anti-mold measures taken before an extended absence in a tropical anchorage.▶ 14:12
