Finally the bad A of sailing is back !!! Oh she's a Sea Worthy girl !!! But what happened to that Sexy Laura girl from Illinois, where I'm currently stuck at ? Man those sexy water lines when she's moving she'll ride like she's on rails !!! On ward on the lean !!! I love that Oyster sailboat !!!
James, that really is a beautiful boat, now TAKE CARE OF IT! Don’t rush projects, and ask for help, sadly, none of us know everything and a little bit of knowledge really can be a dangerous thing!
James the cylinder seal runs over the shaft, and the area where you have just burnished. The shaft looks wet with oil That seal may bypass oil in that area even more than it was now. You may need to replace that cylinder, or get the shaft changed.
Hey brother, very much appreciate the advice. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but this is an electric drive so I don't think it has lubrication on that shaft. I've had a few of these things and I've never seen any. Lmk thanks.
@@thelastpirate It isn't lubrication oil. It is the oil that moves the cylinder. Your electric pump moves the oil between the top and bottom to retract/extend. The rod damage may have damaged the seals, and your grinding made a low spot when it passes under the seals. www.mobilehydraulictips.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Cylinder.jpg
What happened to the brand new dinghy you were given in the South Pacific last year? You barely used it! You had a new dinghy prior to Zingaro crossing into the Pacific and splitting off the coast of Hawaii? The dinghy you currently have is definitely not worth fixing, and dumping more money into. Was it included when you bought the Oyster?
That looks like nearly an impossible job patching that dinghy. I'll give it to you, you don't give up easy. Wishing you safe sailing and good health to you and your crew ⛵
James, highly recommend you keep that hatch slid shut when sailing and especially so when winching on either side of the companionway. On more than one occasion on my Hylas, which is set-up very much the same as your Oyster, I was hit with a wave that threw me forward while in that same position. Had the companionway hatch not been closed, I would have gone straight down the companionway and that would not have been pretty! Fair winds my friend, see you out there! St George's, Grenada.

@@thelastpirate bit of both bro, its always hard going through those growing seasons in life, we get ripped and pulled from one direction to another before finding our calm and our direction again.. stoked to see a big beautiful yacht under perfect trim after all the storms you’ve been through in the last year., keep bringing the quality movie style content and leave the lives for insta🤙🏴☠️
Att Captain, Hi James, It was great to catch up with you and Steph tonight at the Travel Inn. If you’re serious about travelling to Oz reach out and I can point you in a few directions. Fair winds and following seas 🍻
@Popeye definitely. only 2 year warranty for those chinese made junk dinghies, with lots of caveat. highfield does have the social media sailor lifestyle market cornered, though... guess if you don't pay for it and get free customer support, who cares, but i wouldn't buy one.
@Popeye I'm not sure who's on their website, but I know Tulas Endless Summer is their Facebook banner. They sponsor several social media personalities.
The main things I’ve learned from this channel are: the problem is almost never the first thing you think. And, as I knew, unless you have “all” the tools, get someone who does. And, one mistake costs more than hiring a pro. And, sailing is a spectator sport. Thank you, James for this very entertaining channel, you are a good Macgiver
in the rest of the world its called an Alpine Butterfly Hitch. So AWESOME(!!!!!!) you are back to proper cruising Man!!!! Looking forward to your adventures. All the best to you!!!
James is a great captain and a excellent teacher to his crew . Happy for you today . Footnote the South Pacific weather rules . Always watch the weather more powerful than man .Nothing more beautiful than snorkeling in coral reefs
Jeez...you must be related to Peter at Sailing into Freedom who has sunk a cat, had his replacement boat hit by lightening massacring his electrics, hard drives and hull and has taken to posting pre-Covid vids for months while he tries to repair massive damage. Yours is truly a brave crew😉👍
That dingy is 10yrs old if not older but with enough patch and glue good for another yr or two, great shot of the boat sitting at anchor, enjoyed and drone, more
Hey James! ❤️Love the New intro! Great vibe! On a bit of a downer note though, Is sure hope you're kept in touch with Kimmy! Looks like just about ALL (or most) of Europe [especially Germany!] Had been Deactivated via "flooded drains"! Go figure...while it's ROASTING us over here in Ameruka, the opposite side seems to be drowning at the same time...🤔 I swear, if I didn't know better, I'd think this was Deliberately done.! Like it was planned. Oh wait, it is.. it's called _The Great Reset_ I just hope your friend is ok. She was a very special gift to you but was needed elsewhere I suppose. ❤️🙏⛵⚓🌅❤️
I think the autopilot problem has more to do with inconsistent feedback of the rudder position than the motor or cylinder which drives it. That is what causes failure to calibrate. That and you must be absolutely certain that the rudder is in the exact same position where the wheel is does not matter as you can easily mark a new center position on the helm. I am using over 35 years experience of working on automatic systems that use electronic and computer control in ROV's, Offshore drilling with Dynamic Positioning and the like. All automatic control systems are basically trying to do the same things.
Wow James! The Oyster is stunning! What a beauty she is is open water! Best luck my man! I’ve been with your channel since you left Florida for Cuba! Very cool!
James, A very big Congrats on your tenacity for staying with it and getting back on the water. I am certain it feels good to back sailing once again . Robert North Star

@@kennethcooley9917 I'm curious Kenny. What grade are you in?
That is the dinghy equivalent of a Lagoon 450. Hah!
LOL yeah trashed super structure a year after they come off the production line
The boat looks beautiful with the 3 sails up . really moves
She sure does!

It’s good to see her sail without taking on water👍
it really is, huh? :)
Yes……… this people are true troopers

That’s a kick ass boat!
If that dinghy was a horse, it would be time for the glue factory. Happy to see sails up again, have fun.

Oh boy, it was nice to see you cruising again. Hope the crew are fast learners :-)
It's good to be back!

Great to see those sails catching the wind.
That's the most badass introduction I've ever seen! 🤙🏼
That yacht is beautiful!!!
Great to see the Oyster in her wheelhouse, what a beautiful girl!

Closed cell expandable foam would be a quick fix to your dinghy issues. PROBABLY 😁
Best intro segment on UA-cam 😀
Great to see the new boat really sail.
Steph is gorgeous I dig her vibe.

Good to see you back under sail. Congratulations.

congratulations on the new boat! excellent! lots of hard work finally is paying off. just beautiful! cheers and continued success to you!
Now that is a beautiful boat!
Get some “Toobseal” which seals the leaks from the inside. It works great to seal what the patches don’t

Shes been good to me! thanks for watching and commenting
Did you red the warning label on the Toluene ?
James must grow hair fast for it to come back so quick from the last video.
Plus his nail polish must have worn off. At least his wardrobe is color coordinated.
best intro ever!
what a hell of a ride :D We (the whole family) like it :)
Very Beautiful 😍👍
The boat looks amazing at anchor. Congratulations on getting back into the wind.
Right!?!? She's a beaut.
@@thelastpirate Right! :-) she is a beaut. Kudos - tons of hard work - you deserve it.
Bonaire is such a chill island. Wife and I loved it there.

As always great shit man. You have worked hard and deserve to enjoy that boat. I wish you calm seas. Peace.
FINALYYYYY...
Gorgeous ship..
Great music James, digging the tune choices.
Nice ship dude , proud of you good choice.
