Nova Loman prepares her 1970s sailboat for a southward voyage after a winter refit in Stockholm.1:00 To protect deck equipment from fine desert sand, she fabricated custom covers for her winches, windlass, and autopilot using leftover fabric.13:29 She designed the autopilot cover with rubber bands to allow screen visibility and button access while shielding the unit from water ingress.13:59 Loman also constructed a temporary spray shield for the cockpit using old dodger components and plastic sheeting to keep her dog, Neno, dry during upwind sailing.15:09 Her hardtop project remains incomplete due to cold weather, but she finalized the window installation by creating hardboard templates and heat-forming plastic sheets in an oven at 175 degrees.2:25 Additional winter maintenance included splicing double-braided lines for anchor snappers, 3D-printing a condensation diverter for the fridge, and reupholstering interior cushions.6:23 The boat departed Stockholm via local locks and bridges to begin the transit south.15:48
