To address persistent odors and moisture, they strip the refrigerator insulation, clean the hull area, and install new liners.9:50 They implement several preventative measures for long-term cruising: storing dry goods in bags rather than boxes to save space, removing labels from canned goods to prevent cockroach infestations, and placing bay leaves in grain containers to deter weevils.13:58 The crew also highlights lessons learned from recent coastal sailing, including the necessity of gimbaling the stove, wearing closed-toed shoes to prevent injury from unsecured drawers, and keeping electronics away from portholes to avoid water damage during heavy weather.4:27 They emphasize the utility of a saltwater washdown system for cleaning anchor chain and mud from the deck.5:59 The crew plans to purchase fresh produce at a local Publix shortly before their departure to ensure supplies remain viable for the upcoming passage.15:09
