Ep 278 | Finally, the New Engine Is Going In, Darwin, Sailing Nutshell
August 08, 2022 by Life in a Nutshell | Language: EN Play Time: 00:12:55 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
It’s finally time for Nutshell to get her new engine. With the engine bay now all newly painted and ready, we take Nutshell to the lock, under tender power and meet up with the crane which is going to drop the engine into Nutshell for us.
Everything goes better than expected and we are both relieved that it’s finally over! Now it’s time to install all of the wiring and plumbing.
We are booked in to go on the careening poles at the Dinah Beach Sailing Club. We can’t cancel as the window for getting up onto the poles is very narrow, but the shaft to join the gearbox to the drive shaft isn’t ready. Anyway, we decide to go on the poles anyway and slowly make our way out of the lock and onto the careening poles with the help of friends’ tenders. It’s a scary operation!
Thanks for watching.
Thanks for watching.
See you all next time.
Wendy and Magnus
