What this video covers
A 38-ft sailboat crew based in La Paz, Baja California Sur, troubleshoots a non-starting outboard motor after replacing the solenoid, ignition switch, and neutral safety switch.▶ 6:55 The engine cranks but fails to start due to a faulty crimp on a power wire extension, which allowed voltage to pass but restricted the necessary amperage.▶ 7:32 The crew also conducts a door-to-door search for a DIY-friendly boatyard in La Paz to perform bottom painting, visiting locations including Arena Atalanta and Abaroa, but finds limited availability for their vessel size.▶ 9:11 The crew provisions for two weeks at the Chedraui supermarket, spending approximately $393 USD on groceries.▶ 12:53
