What this video covers
After four months of refit work in Fort Pierce, Florida, the crew of Plan C launches their sailboat and motors four hours along the Intracoastal Waterway to a private dock.▶ 6:30 Before departure, they verify the integrity of all seacocks and the shaft seal.▶ 6:45 Upon arrival, the crew begins provisioning for a planned Bahamas crossing, including inventorying MREs and securing propane tanks in the dedicated locker.▶ 12:53 They also perform maintenance tasks, such as flushing water tanks to remove sulfur odors and installing shroud covers.▶ 13:43 During the transition, the crew identifies a recurring bilge pump cycle.▶ 14:39 They initially suspect backflow but eventually trace the water to a leak in the port-side water tank fill or vent hose.▶ 17:43 Additionally, the head develops a leak, resulting in wastewater on the bathroom floor.▶ 20:14 The crew concludes the day without a definitive repair for the tank or the head but confirms the boat remains safe for overnight mooring.▶ 19:14
