- In this episode Colin travels to Los Angeles to do a couple of podcasts with fellow below deck cast members, and also pick up a bunch of spare parts for the boat, as shipping to Costa Rica is ridiculously expensive. When back on the boat, the crew go through a pretty comprehensive oil change procedure for your viewing pleasure!

The work Colin does as an engineer both here and on below deck should really inspire young, or any, people to get into engineering. My Dad wanted to be an engineer, but his father made him do something else. He tested off the charts aptitude wise for engineering. He was always making, fixing, building and inventing. I watched him a lot and it's like he is there when I do the same. Chef Marcos, adored him, such a genuine person and talent. As to all the deeply invested personal comments about others in the show, unless you are one of them, or involved personally, how can you know seriously!? As Colin says, it's not what you did that will bother you in 20yrs time, it's what you didn't do. And some of it you just plain chalk up to experience! So go and do some living yourselves! Thx for the inspo Colin, off to change some oil, the right way!
I just watched Below Deck Sailing. All of the charters raved about Marcos' cooking. Glad he has his own restaurant and I am sure it will be a success. Hope it is not the last we will see of him on Below Deck.
Didn’t have any idea on how much power induction takes….now I do. Thanks for the lesson. I even watched you changing the oil, not sure I could do it as a 74 year old grandma, but it’s never too late to learn. Happy Birthday Colin !
Thank you, Colin! It was lovely to see both Daisy and Marcos. I hope you do another season of BDSY, as I think you bring a reasonable note to the chaos that is Gary King!!
I agree Love Marcos and Colin they seem like really great men. I am so happy for Marcos opening his new restaurant wish I lived closer I would love to try his cooking.
Marcos, is a magician with food.
@@mumof3plusone650only thing is he has a bit of an attitude but that was minor.
@@bethchisholm4858I was very disappointed in season 4, the way Colin pretty much gaslighted Daisy. I hope they have mended their relationship
Colin, it is already your birthday in NZ, let the celebrations begin. Happy birthday Mate, may the next million sea miles be even more fun.
Happy Birthday @Colin.
Cheers from NZ 🇳🇿 M !
So good to see Dani and the others from below deck sailing - I truly loved the friendship w/you Collins, Gary and Marco.
Gary 😮
I'm obsessed never been sailing!! Have a terminal disease but I can walk and be 90lbs I want to go sailing and I love learning about the boat!! Great teachers!! Love Jamie!! too!! Love and Gratitude!!❤❤
Have you been able to sail yet?
Hi, I hope you are doing well. I don't know your disease but I'm in a challenge with the big C myself. Metabolic Therapy (Dr. Thomas Seyfried and Dr. Matt Phillips, Metabolic Neurologist, Waikato hospital, Hamilton New Zealand) is helping me heaps, maybe you might look into this therapy for yourself, its never too late, good luck!
below deck sailing is the best one in my opinion! seen them all and love these peeps
Love the "boat life" content, appreciate you taking the time to film the real operations side of boating, cheers!
Yes, I like that too.
Hi Colin,I am by no means a yachting person but I still find your utube channel inspiring to watch. It's your Kiwi ingenuity in problem solving I love seeing in play when you hit a brick wall and you are always humble.
Hopefully Callie’s eye is all good. Good to see the service side of things. Sweaty work!
Great video and love how you cover everything from great Below Deck event.. to solar consumption for the induction to an oil change.
Racor filters are really good, I installed and serviced a lot of them in the 70's. This was back when the Gov. started making the fuel producers start bottom pumping the storage tanks. We had hell for a couple of years with fuel contamination and algae...
Because of all the crap that would settle to the bottom? Why did they require that?
@@kbanghart It was a conservation measure that started as a shortage. All the crap had been on the bottom of the tanks for years...
As far as testing out induction power consumption, you have Delos close by. Captain Brian has run the numbers. He probably has a spreadsheet. 🤣 Trust me, if it wasn't a power-saving idea, he never would've switched. Kazza loves it. 🔥
Good point, always good to share ideas with each!
I went full induction about a year ago..... SOOOOOO easy!!! You will love it!!!!
Easy? How much does it cost?
Nice to see how you fix things! Thank you Colin & crew! By the way, I love your music in all your videos! Cheers 😍🙌
Gonna miss you on the shows but glad I still get to watch you on here. Thank you 🙏
The skill you have..just crazy man so awesome to see you fixing with the engines..mad skills overall ❤❤/ Marcus Sweden
Delos have induction cook top and love it. They say it doesn't take that much electricity. Bryan knows all the numbers and can give them to you. They went to the electric oven too.
The Wynns have a one-burner induction cooktop. Rave by it.
Colin...love your interesting post. Please keep it going.
I had an eye infection like that. It is very painful and it actually takes a toll on your mentality. I watched Sailing Catalpa when they changed their filters. Hello to the Delos tribe. See you next Sunday 🙂 Hugs from Texas sweeties 😎
Just subscribed! Don't know what took me so long since I have been watching Below Deck Sailing Yacht since the beginning!! Thanks Colin!!
Have fun be safe you are a great hard working man
16:06 Sand? Probably fiberglass dust! 😂
Looks like you need to watch Keith’s fuel polishing filter install over on S/V Zatara
Great episode Cuzzy Bro 😎
Thanks for sharing your engineering skills Colin!! Awesome to watch
Thanks guys, we always enjoy your video's. We watch them on the television so we all can watch, including my dog. He gets his kick's watching y'all especially your dogs haha. We like the induction cooking if you have the power, pressure cooker saves a lot of power too. Thanks again, stay safe. 👍🏻👍🏻🌊🏄⛵🐾
Good friends having fun. We need more Marcos
My Monday morning fix of parlay . Hi from Christchurch New Zealand!
You have a nice large solar panel array and plenty of amp hours in reserve.. plus you can always run the engines and charge the battery bank if you have extended periods of bad weather.... have to love seeing a full charge by noon on a cloudy day! Induction vs propane? propane has a lot of downsides.... 1) running out when you are in the middle of cooking dinner. 2) remote anchor/not able to find 3) pray you have the right adapter (region dependent) to fill your tanks. 4 )flammable gas system that can develop leaks.
No real downsides to induction other than having to possibly buy some new pots and pans and wiring in an isolator/surge protector in case of lightening storms. The pros are 1) you can cook more efficiently with it and 2) it's not propane 🙂 Cheers!!!
This is such a glorious channel, I have recently discovered it and have watched all of the episodes in a couple of weeks already😆and love it so much ❤So inspiring and just some really amazing vibes, thank you so much for that!
Also Happy birthday, Colin! All the happiness to you and Keep living your dreams and inspiring people all over the world! 🎉
Let’s go sailing
Colin we changed our whole galley to electric on our Leopard 40 more than 2 years ago. Electric oven, 2 plate induction cooktop, microwave and kettle. We have 1800w of solar and 1000amphours of LiFePo4 batteries and we love it. Only gas for the braai now 😉
Need more Daisy! I'm a landlubber but have just switched to induction and love it due to ease of keeping clean and the speed!
If you prime the fuel filters with new engine oil the slightly higher viscosity cleans the injectors as well. It has been in the service manuals of several manufacturers over the years.
That was an amazing video , good to see you displaying your mechanical skills boss . Was stellar to meet you guys at the boat show. Keep kicking ass 🎃
In the past week I have seen three sailing channels (Catalpa, Zatara and Parlay) deal with crap at the bottom of the fuel filter. Zatara has a nice polishing system too.
Great episode about real boat life: power consumption calculation and engine service.
Mate I have been using induction cooking in my home for over 10 years, it draws way less electricity than any other method and you can cook eggs perfectly at 300 degrees. Make the switch and you will never regret it, the only thing is if you need to simmer anything longer that two hours it turns off automatically, so you have to watch it, it's a safety thing, enjoy the induction cooking experience...
Induction stove it’s really good, fast and very easy to burn food if cocked at high power. So, medium like you used is plenty of power. You will find that boiling water is much faster than propane. Good luck.
Great video! You’ll probably love your NuWave cooktop. It’s terrific, consistent heat. I prefer it over my gas stove and have 4 of them! Two in our RV 2 in the house. They’re great to keep food warm, at parties too.
Induction is great, heats super quick. Takes a little getting use to but say boiling water for pasta is quicker.
Marco seemed to work harder than any the chef on the BD series and with such a positive attitude.
I disagree, others worked just as hard but Marco was definitely one of the best.
Biobor JF is the biocid I use to keep diesel bug from contaminating and corroding my diesel fuel system . There are several brands to choose from , not to be confused with dead insect cleaners on truck bumpers !
make your fuel system Bulletprooof" install the double racor system(2 filters on interconnected maifold, you can switchover live ,while engine running), or s/v Zataras "Fuel polsher" looks good too..... cruising the world there is no escaping inferior fuel supply periodically..... the double racor setup (one per main engine works well [lesss than $1000 per])
Thank you for the video. I hope her eye gets better.
An interesting show this time. A little different. Going several ways. I dug it.
Eye infection , most times healed with colloidal silver.
the moment you or the dogs have anything going on just wash out with colloidal silver water.
Simple to take anywhere...
2 thin silver rods 4/5 inches long can buy ebay or jewellery shop.
Just bend ends to fit over glass.
conect 9 v battery with 9v Battery Snap Connector to Dual Alligator Clips .
dont touch rods together just place in glass of water for 2/ 3 minutes.
you will see silver coming off rods is few seconds.
Can use for ear infection etc.
Hope this helps ...
Another outstanding input from Colin and Co.!!! Keep 'em coming!!
Great Channel - reality folks, its not all plain sailing. Crew do it all and the captain does everything lol
Filter wrench. Buy at least two and stow them in the engine compartment, hanging, - where you use them. Neoprene! Good idea. Also for hand tightening, rubber bands increase your grip strength quite a bit. I used them on everything from fountain pens to large ABS fittings. (Of course they are nothing compared to a strap wrench or channel locks)
On my 20 year old boat I've got two sets of Raycors. They still look brand new. So I'm wondering about the actual progression of a fuel filter problem. I can imagine this happening: I have a clogged filter, so I flip the lever to the second set of filters, they quickly clog. Then I replace all the filters in the first bank. Then they clog.... Is the crap that can get/grow in a diesel tank enough to take out a whole series of filters? Or usually when there's a clog one filter change (or flipping that lever to the second bank) takes care of it? (Who's done this a lot - that's the video I want to see.)
And how do you clear out a tank full of gunk? I guess I should first just get off my ass do a filter change just as good practice. Then when I find I don't have the right filter wrench.... I can just drive over to the shop and buy one (or two), instead of waiting for all this go down someplace remote.
BTW your fix it videos are top notch. Many channels do twenty minutes on 'this nut is frozen, let's try this (doesn't work) then this (also doesn't work) then in the last two minutes they magically are done with the job briefly mentioning how they solved the problem...
And the old fashioned way was to use your belt for tightening.
Yup. I always use latex type gloves now when working on engines and oh boy can you hand tighten a filter wearing those lol!
Great tip with the lift pump! I’m absolutely going to use that. Thanks.
Living the life, Colin.
Nice thing about induction is that you can really turn it off before you're cooking is quite done cuz it stays so hot and you should be using a lid to get things to cook quicker. Terrific video and what a great surprise to see Delos. Wishing your lady crew a successful recovery for her eye.
That was a really good tutorial on how to change your filters in oil on any engine thanks.
I never get tired of seeing my offgrid batteries full, especially on crappy days.
Love Pavones! We're dreaming of Costa Rica lately!
Happy birthday Colin 🐳🐟🦐🦞🐙
Lots of travel in a few days but nice to see friends from BD! ✌️💜
Don’t forget, you need the adapted pots and pans for induction cooking.
Happy birthday Colin,cheers.
Filer removal tip, get some 40 grit sandpaper, wrap it around filter sandpaper towards the filter, that grips it like crazy, you can undo filter with one hand even if its covered in oil, easy... keep that pease of sandpaper for next time.
That was just awesome
Here in CA Propane runs close to 10 dollars a gallon, no idea what you guys are paying, but I fill 6x5=30 gallons per season and the cost for me runs $50.00 per container of Propane ($300.00 Total) and that total is for the year since propane use is based on how often we use the Grill and have company all season for we also have area heaters. I live close to LA so cold is not a common event outside of 3 months of the year.
Hey Colin, I want to thank you for the reply and the fact that you picked me for a gift but as I am not on any social media, it is much too dangerous with all the loss of privacy I would like to say I enjoy your videos but I don't need to be awarded a gift for watching, I am living my dream vicariously through your travels, keep up the great videos, thank you Ed...
What a great life you have!!
You are in my country and you are my favorite from Below Deck!
Hey Cali, I hope you return to the boat as soon as you get your eye treatment. Induction is awesome providing that you can support the current draw. It will take you a bit of time to get used to working with the induction cook top.
Happy Birthday Colin!!👏🏽👏🏽
amazed watching you & your boat life ! interesting & watching you do an oil change 🤩🤩😁😁 👏🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽😉 i can watch you over & over !!😁😍🤩😁😁🤙🏽
when adding new oil filter use some of the old oil to lube the gasket. will come off a lot easier. I have changed thousands of oil filters on boats and that is how we do it.
Take a look at - airdog or fast lift pumps - they have a 4 Micron filter and a water Separator paired with the electric pump that pumps how to consistent adjustable psi . Which helps the Injectors and factory pump from fuel starvation and it separates all that nasty .
It is good to see that You Tube life has not dimmed your skills
Been using the same induction eye for 5 years now and it held up quite well. You need more solar panels and more lipos , you have the space, it’s a game changer. If I was doing a large boat, I would seriously consider a turbine driven electric generator, it can burn some shitty fuels and be ok.
Kia ora Colin.
If no filter wrench, use an old leather trouser belt.
It work for me.
Just so you know, I like the "real" boat life videos as much as the "fun" boat life ones. Keep up yhe great work!
Bleeder on the fuel filter is between the return and outlet at the top of the housing of the filter mount.mine leaks like a bassard,stripped threads.
Absolutely love the Chanel iv been following from day one your a Chanel for everyone keep killing parlay team
Hey Colin, the best investment you will ever make in the longevity of your engines / gensets is setting up a bypass filter that filters down to 1 or 2 micron. These types of filters can also be used for diesel fuel as well. This is not new technology but VERY effective at removing all contaminants down to 1or 2x micron. There are many marine, transport & rail engines operators who swear by these bypass filters for the cost savings + the benefits from having super clean oil lubricating your diesel engines.
Was at Marco’s restaurant a month ago. Food was great and it was great to talk to about your adventures.
Smart idea not trying to take the bolts out of that fuel bowl Colin. Stuff like that has always bit me in the ass when I've attempted it. Better off changing the whole unit next filter change or soon anyway.
I do three racors a week. The bolts are fine as long as you don’t tighten the piss out of them. Just snug them up. It’s an aluminum housing so it will strip out.
I love watching stuff like this🧡🧡🧡🧡
I LOVE COLLIN AND MARCUS 😍😍🔥🔥♥️♥️
Tell me that's Jamie's toothbrush!!!! Lol
I was watching you hand pump the engine oil and I was all... Awww mate you need a small electric pump screw that hand pumping shit you'll be there all bloody day... Then you went to get a small mechanical pump lol
Great episode. Reminds me of working in the marine service center years ago. And you're right even maintenance is never just a simple job!
Your the best Colin
I even use Racor for my little outboards.
In a pinch, you can punch a screw driver into the filter to get it loose. Messy but very easy and effective.
I’m onto the last episode of bdsy and absolutely gutted , hope to see you back on the next season
Hi Colin,
I am glad to see that everything seems to be going well for you. I have some friends who use that kind of cook top and she loves hers. The feature she likes the best is selecting a temperature and it maintains it. In your case you would not have to get the four position model. They make two and three position models. Good luck I think you will like them very well.
So did you ever get all your electronics replaced? 🤗⛵
That yanmar sounds mint.. great video man, top stuff!
Love your channel! Love you on Below Deck! They couldn’t have made it this last season if it wasn’t for all your knowledge and experience! So happy for Marco!
Colin is on Below Deck Sailing Season 4 ??? Hell Yes!
he was onseson 3 too
Great vid! Congrats at the Boat Show!!! 👍🏻👍🏻😎😎😎
100% feeling good
Have a look at a Ninja Foodie Air Fryer. When they are on they draw a lot of current but the duty cycle is really low on some settings, think i worked out the pressure cooker setting was about 6% duty cycle so 8Ah, that's a long time in a pressure cooker, the slow cooker is probably even lower but air frying would be quite high. There's a sear sauté setting so it is a pan but surrounded in insulation so all the energy you put in will have to come out through your food.
good video alway good to see your work videos as you explain your methods so well, great teaching o wise one 🤓
Electric pressure cooker is the way 👍🏻 thank you for showing your adventures
Yep. Makes the best steaks.
Editing on this episode is awesome
I've healed pink eye twice as well as others have, using eye wash every 30 minutes for 10 to 12 hours. Collyrium For Fresh Eyes Eye Wash. The bacteria is washed away every 30 minutes not giving it a chance to grow back. Goes away in 8 hours, but 10 to 12 hours just in case. Keep an eye wash cup on board, and some distilled water for eye washing. Works like a charm!!
Your one smart man Colin
Oil filter rench substitute use leather belt.
Couple taps 👊 under tension boom undone
Have you ever considered spraying WD40 onto all the engine bay fasteners and metal parts? It is great for preventing corrosion with parts that prone to getting wet. I keep a spray bottle on hand, and just mist spray the engine compartment and underside of my 4WD. My suspension and all the bolts look brand new and will never rust. Might give it a try on your engine bay. The anchor chain storage and the windlass mechanism would be another great candidate as well. Cheers!
Shout out to Daisy and Marcos loved watching both of them on below deck.
