Adjusting the Stuffing Box on my Sailboat (In the Water) // Living on a Sailboat in Canada Ep. 33

Itâs never a good feeling to hear your bilge pump go off repeatedly⦠In this video, I noticed that the stuffing box on my 1978 Catalina 30 sailboat was dripping A LOT which was likely contributing to the water in the bilge. While the boat was sitting in the water, I adjusted the stuffing box to stop the drip. It took a little longer than expected, and I had to call in Andrew for some backup, but at the end of the day we got it done!
