- After sailing for 2600nm, what broke on our ocean crossing? We had system failures of all sizes over our 25 days at sea. Some were major problems and some are more manageable...

Just a suggestion, when you upgrade the batteries consider adding a higher output alternator at the same time. It’ll help with the charging and run your engine less
Not a bad idea!
Please NO! Please do NOT store the Gas and Propane in the cabin! Especially the gasoline, vapors will ignite. Please put them in a well vented area.
Congratulations on your crossing. You are in a small group of cruisers to cross the Pacific.
Thank you so much! It definitely was a rewarding experience and we are so glad we got to document it!
Perhaps the only Christians on the sea. What a refreshing couple. God bless you and your family. Hope to join you all soon as I complete my boat.
This comment made me smile. Thank you! We hope to see you out on the water! If you see us one day, please say hi. :)
@@sailingposttime My son is a SWO on Tripoli.
A suggestion for the berth that took on water. Most cushions on a boat are made of some type of foam. If the berth took on enough water it may well have soaked through their cover and into the foam. If so, and the foam is not dried thoroughly mold will likely develop. Similar thing happened to me on a passage from Hawaii to Tahiti. Leaking station base soaked several of the cushions. Open landfall we had to remove all cushions, squeeze as much sea water out as possible, soak with fresh water, squeeze, dry. Hope yours isn't as drastic. Fair winds!
Great tip! Luckily the foam was rather dry by the time we got back. I thought about laying them in the sun if they were more wet. But, at least you were in the tropics when that happened- even the largest inconvenience is better in Tahiti. ;)
Congratulations! Please don’t store propane and gasoline down below because it’s very dangerous. All it takes is a spark to ignite. Keep them in a well ventilated area outside.
Thanks for the tip!! We didn’t know that!
Please get the red gas can and the propane tank OUT OF THE BOAT and mount them on the deck. Gas and propane are heavier then air and EXPLOSIVE.
Haven't watched the vid yet. Doesn't the boat have a propane locker?
If I've understood correctly, propane is an asphyxiating gas. That means it will displace the oxygen/air in your lungs, making it difficult or impossible to breathe if exposed to high concentrations.
Thanks for leaving the helpful tip! The propane tank is already gone and donated. It was just a for the crossing as backup.
We do for our main tank! But, the one down below was just a backup for the generator or stove. :)
Many sailors mount a wooden plank to the stantions and then attach extra tanks to the plank.
Great video! Appreciate the work u put into each episode. Congrats on 5k subscribers. U both will be full time UA-camrs soon enough.
Thank you so much & we are glad you are one of those 5,000. :)
Make sure to look at increasing the wiring gauge when you switch to lithium batteries. The smaller wires can overheat and be a fire risk.
Great tip!
I'm loving your videos! Keep it up. I'm hooked!
Awe, glad to hear it! Thank you!! 😊
Maybe a problem with the anti siphon on your exhaust mixer- water coming in from outside to the wrong part of the engine. Look at this on UA-cam it is a common Catalina problem and an easy fix- usually can clean it! Good luck
Cute outfit in the thumbnail! Always need to refit after a long passage- I approve of TV place, mine is by Nav Station too. Your videos keep getting better and better- thank you so much- also I love you boat!
Thank you so much! Glad you approve of the tv placement lol. ;)
I said other, nice things too.....@@sailingposttime
💚💯congratulation!! Happy new year 2024 ⛵🙏
Happy new year!!!
Excellent video. Happy New Year. I appreciated you going over everything that failed to some degree or other. I was wondering about that. Crazy thought, is it possible the fuel gauge, voltmeter and engine issue were all related. I know you already solved it, but it was something I thought about watching the video.
What make TV is that? Is it 12V or run off inverter? Thanks.
It’s a Samsung frame tv and we are obsessed with it! I think it’s very aesthetically pleasing for boats!
It runs on our shore power, so if we wanted it at anchor, we could need to set it up to run on the invertor.
Thanks for the reply. Ill have a look at that for our 37ft.
I am just happy that you made it back home. The only way to learn is to do. On can say to a cat your so furry and cute they say that’s not me I am a predator. One needs to learn the systems. Or just stay coastal. Sorry brutally honest second attempt to much fail. I would never take my wife on that trip with knowledge that was displayed. Your all safe happy
