THIS will stop our BOAT SINKING! [RED SEAS]
SUPPORT our REFIT and help us continue to make these videos: www.red-seas.com/refit
We are taking on a huge refit on our sailing catamaran, fixing a lot of things that have failed over the years and upgrading a lot of systems to better suit our off-grid lifestyle. With a 20 year old catamaran, we have lots of thru hulls that are starting to fail and we will be switching these out soon - but besides these holes in our boat, there are two more that make us worry even more.
In this video, I remove and replace them with a far better solution, thanks to Henley's Engineering in Auckland. You can see more info here: https://www.henleys.co.nz/shaft-seals
