Ep 311 | Windlass and Bowsprit Repairs, Anchorages, Dampier Archipelago, Sailing Nutshell

Magnus begins the task of fixing the holes in the bowsprit with epoxy.

We go ashore in search of the many petroglyphs which are in this area.

Magnus splices a new anchor rode to replace the 500 feet of chain which is now at the bottom of the ocean, with the new anchor!

We leave Dolphin island and make our way down Flying Foam Passage to Dampier to organise a new chain.

The weather is horrible and we manage to sneak out of Dampier and head to East Lewis Island in the hope of a calmer anchorage. We wait for the new chain to arrive.

Magnus pulls out the windlass controller because it is not working. The wires were ripped out when the windlass broke of the deck.

We head ashore for a well earned swim, because we can. Now.

Thanks for watching.

Until next time…

Wendy and Magnus
