  • We had noticed a problem with our engine and spend a few days working out what the problem was. At first we thought it must be something wrapped around the prop but after diving down to look we found it was moving freely. We found out it was an issue with the gearbox. Luckily we met Chris from ‪@SailingRagdoll‬ just at the right moment and with his help we were able to take it apart, clean it up fix our problem.
    We are a family of five with plans for an epic adventure, sailing around the world. We have bought a boat we have to gut it, rebuild it, sell all of our possessions and have t he guts to cast off. Follow our adventures.

    That was truly fascinating. Reminds me of when I had to repair my Dad's canal boat coupling that had not been fitted correctly.

    11:32 Keeping the gearbox stuff & engine as seperate modules makes a lot of sense so the oil can be tailored to the application & the gearbox oil lasts a lot longer & engine heat is less of an issue for the gears & its easy to extract the gearbox by itself but there have been intances where the engine & gearbox have been combined, the mk1 mini & other BMC front wheel drive cars were an example.

    You'll have to let us know how late your start of class went.

    I can't listen to anymore my friend. No oil no pressure no movement until pressure builds up. Oil lost through a worn seal at that point where it's splashing about. Replace the seal, top up the box and away to go. If you destroy the new seal quickly then you'll have to find out why your propshaft is turning egg shaped, not round and round

    Boating is about fixing boats not sailing them. Think yourself lucky you are in the water - that's not the norm by any means 🙂 These people sailing around the World, sitting on tropical beaches and fishing huge tuna for their dinner - lies, video skills, photoshop, green screen. Maybe a few shots from when they first brought the boat back from where it was sold, then the last 5 years in the marina 🙂 Wrong... OK, drop me a line I'll come out for a couple of weeks to find out. Well it was worth a try 🙂
