This episode showed you in such contentment I felt I was on-board your adventure. Not the 3rd day though. You both work hard and have come a long ways from your first time taking the boat out by yourselves. Thank you for showing more of your family. They are cute but one seems to stay away from the main area. Perhaps wants to sleep. Not every couple can spend so much time in a small space 24 hours a day. It is not easy but you both share the ups and down so well. I am impressed how you both keep your boat so clean. A pleasure to share.

The carnage never came and I'm left impressed at how two intelligent and driven people can go get their dreams and conquer not only sailing but life in general.

Good grief those where high winds and waves . wow! Years ago when sailing with 8 friends and a hired captain. We where sailing the BVI , 42 ft mono hull , rental , twin main masts , great boat . The storm waves troughs where 25 ft deep . We lost site of the horizon on every down dip . Every port there where not enough mooring points for everyone . The following year hundreds of thousands where raised to add several hundred island mooring points . People laid out every inch of chain in 3 directions to make it through the events. Of course the best 2 days , day one pure glass , the exit day pure glass on the ocean. Sailing is its own mystery to be experienced and appreciated in real time. Thanks for sharing your family journey . Yes boat maintenance is always missing columns and tasks on the excel sheet :) keep up the good work .

8:30 Sprayed the cable...did you spray the base of ( beneath )the pulley...and in between the 2 pulley's ? Really blast it then give it an hr then again, then again. Corrosion, dirt around the shaft beneath, or a seized bearing (s) If that doesn't free it ...reduce the wear/ friction on the cable with grease on the cable to a length as far as the cable is likely to travel in either direction (slide) over the pulley. Vaseline will work though it isn't heavy enough for long periods of movement. You will need to monitor/grease it until you can repair the pulley but more frequently than only when you 'hear' the 'moaning'. You may have if so ....never mind :-) Safe sailing.........
