BOATWORKS: cutlass bearing, shaft seal and more on our Beneteau Oceanis 393

sailboat boatyard stories: cutlass bearing, rust and more
welcome back to the second part of our boat yard adventure. this time our sailboat ForTuna will get a anti-rust treatment, to make sure she will be sailing for many years to come. we also discover a huge problem on our cutlass bearing and have to change it to keep our sailboat afloat once she will be in the water. changing the cutlass bearing is no easy task but we show you how to change the cutlass baring and also how to change the shaft seal.

Holes in the boat are generally a bad idea 👎 Another wonderful episode! Thank you ☺️

[@WhenSailing]

hahah thanks jamie😅 luckily it still well sealed and water stays out😅🙏⛵️

[@TomJoyce]

Good job you guys

[@WhenSailing]

thanks Tom! so glad we managed to fix it all😅

[@MadMarv.]

Funny, all the guys on our construction crew also give out little squeals when we drill holes. lol

[@WhenSailing]

ahahah just a crazy feeling 😅😆

[@francocusinato5159]

Gran bel lavoro. Complimenti, bravissimi.

[@WhenSailing]

grazie ☺️ la comunità di velisti nei cantieri valgono oro senza di loro sarebbe stato molto più difficile ☺️

[@francoschneider4778]

Bellissimo video. Affrontate ogni problema con sano ottimismo e li risolvete al meglio. Bravi. 💪

[@WhenSailing]

eh che ci vuoi fare 😅 se non lo risolviamo non torniamo in acqua e quelli non è mai una soluzione ☺️

[@rosavalsangiacomo4804]

Bravissimi, non è da tutti eseguire tutti i lavori a bordo. 👏👏👏

[@WhenSailing]

un passo alla volta riusciamo a fare tutto 💪

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Great video, very informative as well. Took as back to our boatyard days - exciting, frustrating and endless 😜💙🤩

[@WhenSailing]

Thank you so much 🥰 so happy we managed to finish so many jobs (and the unplanned ones too;)

[@christophecubier8326]

Great job as always !

[@WhenSailing]

Thanks Christophe💪🏻🏝

[@nunnu.s]

I just admire your handwork skills! I am uncomfortable using a drill let alone that electric saw 😅 and to know what to do!

[@WhenSailing]

uhuu hello theere🥰 thanks so much! was quite some time until i could use it and still not comfortable😅 thanks for checking in and salty wishes to the north 🏝⛵️

[@ianb4801]

With that expensive gland on the inboard part of the shaft, you have to squeeze it each time For Tuna returns to the water - to eliminate the air that would damage it? Also good thinking about the red bottom as it will hide any more rust

[@WhenSailing]

yeess😅 squeezed out all the air and now it does not even drip😆 before we had some slight water drops☺️ hehe hope the rust stays away for some time😅 thanks for watching ian💪🏻⛵️

[@captrandy3307]

Thanks for this video! This is very helpful. I saw you on the street in Marigot a couple of days ago, and I'm actually looking to pull my Beneteau Oceanis 40 at the same boat yard for painting the bottom. My boat has a rubber cutlass bearing and I'm hoping that I can replace it easily by just removing the prop. I am contemplating replacing the shaft seal as well, which I already purchased.

[@WhenSailing]

Hi Randy🙏 next time you have to say helloo😛 we are in st barths currently but be back soon in marigot😉 runbber should work easier and in ilet marine you even find the full rubber black one with the lip, would go for that one next time💪🏻

[@VeleiroLiberdade]

Do you guys remember the cutlass bearing outside diameter? I need to change mine and we have the same boat.

[@WhenSailing]

not sure sorry 😅⛵️

[@tburns8719]

enjoyed the video as usual. I was hoping you would show a picture of the piece you cut from the hull, how thick was it ? is it cored or solid glass?

[@WhenSailing]

Hi there:) it was exactly 1 cm thick? loads of individual layers of glass, why do you ask?:)

[@tburns8719]

@@WhenSailing just wondering, I have a 2005 , 393, that's a little thinner than I would like but there is the liner in there as well.

[@WhenSailing]

hmm how thin is she?

[@tburns8719]

@@WhenSailing don't know, I have never drilled a hole in the hull, that's why i was curious about yours. Lots of good information on your channel

[@RichardWoodNZ]

What is the new thru hole for?

[@WhenSailing]

Hi Richard☺️ watermaker finally gets a dedicated one, before we used a higher existing one and could only make water at anchor😅

[@eddybalentien4263]

When are you going to visit Curaçao

[@WhenSailing]

Hi Eddy, we have been there in July until October 😅 great time and diving there - are you from curacao?

[@eddybalentien4263]

@@WhenSailing Yes. Currently, I am in the dominican republic preparing the boat, so I can sail back to Curaçao. Where are you now?

[@WhenSailing]

Niiice! want to go there in a few weeks! how is sailing there? can you explore a bit ftom different anchorages? curacao is quite limited and you only have one main anchorage😅

[@eddybalentien4263]

You have samana and luperon on the north side of the island. On the south side there are mainly marinas. I have not been there.

[@R.E.HILL_]

Look into the lens and not the viewfinder. You're supposed to talk to your viewers not yourself, right? 😉☺️

[@WhenSailing]

you are absolutely right 😆
