O que este vídeo aborda
Camille Milligan and Jesse haul their sailboat out at a Malaysian marina for maintenance, intending to replace the cutlass bearing and address rudder water intrusion.▶ 4:30 The project immediately encounters mechanical setbacks, beginning with a seized propeller hub that resists both manual force and a dedicated propeller puller.▶ 5:11 After removing the coupling from the gearbox, the crew discovers the propeller shaft cannot be extracted with the rudder in place.▶ 7:17 They hire a professional to assist in removing the steering quadrant and dropping the rudder using a travel lift.▶ 8:09 The team successfully removes the old cutlass bearing, but the replacement part compresses during installation, preventing the shaft from sliding through.▶ 10:30 After four hours of failed attempts to seat the bearing, they remove the damaged component.▶ 10:29 With no local replacements available, Jesse flies to Australia to source a custom-made cutlass bearing.▶ 11:32 The rudder remains on the hard stand to drain and dry while the boat awaits the new part.▶ 9:46
